The Vatican Museum, countless tourists and art lovers from all over the world, as well as devout believers, are queuing up at the entrance of the museum, waiting to enter the museum for a visit.

At the entrance of this world-famous museum, two giant posters about ten meters high are erected, which are extremely eye-catching and can be seen by standing on St. Peter's Square.

On one of the posters is a general riding a war horse and wearing armor, who is commanding the battle. It is a bronze statue of Muzio Sforza, the founder of the Sforza family.

The pictures on another poster are known to everyone who knows a little about Western art, and are very familiar with them. The poster is the famous "Holy Mother of Rock".

To be precise, it was the third "Holy Virgin of Rock" created by Leonardo da Vinci, which was discovered in Milan ten days ago, and the most perfect "Holy Virgin of Rock".

In addition to Muzio Sforza's bronze statue and "Holy Virgin of Rock", there are more than thirty posters on the steps behind these two giant posters, but the size is much smaller and the content is different!

These thirty posters are arranged in a scattered manner, with several pictures on each step to a greater or lesser extent, extending to the main entrance of the Vatican Museum.

On these exquisitely made posters, there are magnificent underground palaces, various sculptures from ancient Greece and Rome, and various periods from the Renaissance to the 20th century, various genres, and outstanding paintings from many top art masters!

Without exception, every antique artifact and artwork that appears on these posters is the most expensive antique artwork, which is enough to make people crazy!

People waiting in line at the entrance of the Vatican Museum, waiting to enter the museum to visit, looked at these posters, and everyone looked intoxicated, and everyone's eyes were full of expectations.

"Wow! These top antique artifacts and artworks are so beautiful and precious! Who would have thought that they would appear in the same museum and in the same exhibition hall, which was incredible!"

"Who said no! But what's even more incredible is that these priceless top antique artifacts and artworks belong to the same person, that is Steven's extremely lucky guy!

Others may not even be able to touch any of these priceless antique artifacts and artworks. But Steven has so many, so where can he make sense?"

There were constant discussions on the scene, one after another, and each voice was filled with envy and jealousy. Many people wished to take Ye Tian and take these priceless antique artworks on the poster for themselves!

That's right, the public exhibition that is being held at the Vatican Museum is the harvest exhibition of Ye Tian's trip to Italy. The exhibition is titled "Art that Recreates the World".

All the top antique cultural relics and artworks on display in this public exhibition were discovered by Ye Tian during his trip to Italy. The posters printed on them are just a part of them!

The people queuing up at the entrance of the Vatican Museum are all for this exhibition and for those priceless top antique artworks!

At this time, it was the third day of the exhibition "Art that Reappears the World" and the number of people coming to visit has not decreased at all, but has increased!

As soon as this public exhibition began, it caused a huge sensation around the world, especially in the field of art, and the sensational effect it caused was no less than a magnitude ten earthquake!

After receiving the news, countless tourists and art lovers from all over the world flocked to the Vatican.

People came to participate in this five-day public exhibition like pilgrimage, fearing that they would miss this god-given opportunity!

Everyone knows that once you miss this opportunity, it is impossible to see these priceless antique artifacts and artworks at the same time in the same museum at the same time!

This is only once, no one wants to miss it!

With this opportunity to conduct public exhibitions, the popularity of these top antique cultural relics and artworks discovered by Ye Tian in Italy has increased in geometric numbers, and the impact has become increasingly greater!

Naturally, the market value of these top antique cultural relics and artworks is also soaring madly!

And this is exactly the picture Ye Tian wants to see, and it is also one of the reasons why he held this public exhibition.

Just as people were waiting in line outside the museum, a top-notch private auction in a historic building in the Vatican Gardens has officially begun.

It was Ye Tian who held this private auction.

The auction target of this auction is part of his trip to Italy, namely the top antique artifacts and artworks with rich religious colors.

Moreover, the threshold for this private auction is very high, and there are not many people and institutions qualified to participate.

These include representatives of the Italian government and the Milan municipal government, directors of major Italian museums, many super rich and top collectors, representatives of major banks, senior executives of top auction houses, several famous art brokers, etc.

In addition, there are representatives of the Vatican and the US government, several super rich and top collectors from the United States, directors of several famous museums, several most famous art brokers in the United States, several Wall Street bankers, and so on.

In addition to these people, government representatives from other major European and American countries, senior management of famous museums such as the Louvre, many European super rich people and top collectors, etc., are not even qualified to enter this historical building, let alone participate in the competition!

And this is one of the contents of the agreement Ye Tian had reached with the Italian and US governments before.

Italians cannot keep the unreasonable boss out of the world. After all, they have to rely on the United States as the boss everywhere. They don’t have to be so polite in other major European and American countries!

They want to leave as many as possible with more priceless antique artifacts and artworks, and keep those priceless treasures in Italy. Naturally, they hope that the fewer competitors, the better!

The United States wants to take this opportunity to acquire more top antique cultural relics and artworks to increase its cultural heritage so as not to be always ridiculed by many European allies. It is a nouveau riche!

Ye Tianle saw that this situation was successful and did not object to it!

Those top antique cultural relics and artworks with strong religious colors are for sale anyway, and it is the same for everyone to sell them, as long as your interests are not damaged!

At exactly 9 a.m., the private auction began on time.

Ye Tian, ​​who personally hosted the private auction, gave the opening remark as usual, briefly introducing the origins of these top antique cultural relics and artworks auctioned today.

In fact, many bidders on the scene know very well about these top antique cultural relics and artworks, and have no doubt about their authenticity and value!

Just last night, they all participated in the preview of this private auction, carefully enjoyed and identified these top antique artifacts and artworks, and everyone knew it.

After the opening remarks, Ye Tian got to the point. The first item was immediately released, which was Leonardo da Vinci's masterpiece, "Holy Mother of Rock".

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first item tonight is the "Holy Mother of Rock" that you see now, and the third "Holy Mother of Rock" created by Leonardo da Vinci, which has been unknown before.

Among all the paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, the first of the three masters of Renaissance art, the most famous paintings are "The Last Supper", "Mona Lisa", "The Virgin of Rock", and "The Vitruvian Man".

Among the three paintings of the same name, this "Holy Virgin of Rock" is the most outstanding and perfect work. In terms of artistic value alone, it is even better than the two paintings collected by the Louvre and the National Gallery of the United Kingdom!

I won’t introduce the detailed information about this "Holy Mother of Rock". I have already introduced it in very detailedly at the preview last night, and everyone has also made an appraisal, so there should be no doubts.

In the art auction market in recent decades, Leonardo da Vinci's paintings have almost never appeared. The only time they appeared was the painting "Lisa Gladini" I discovered in Milan, which was filmed for 3 billion euros at the time.

The buyer who filmed "Lisa Gladini" is Ms. Maria, the richest man in Italy. She also came to the scene today. Let's use the transaction price of "Lisa Gladini" as a reference to price this oil painting.

In fact, the artistic value of this "Holy Virgin of Rock" is no less than that of "Lisa Gladini", and has a higher status in Western art history. In comparison, this oil painting by Leonardo da Vinci is also more perfectly preserved!

In order to leave enough bidding space for everyone, the starting price I set for this "Holy Mother of Iwasaki" is 2.5 billion euros. Based on this starting price, everyone can compete freely, and the higher the price will be!

One thing I have to declare in advance. I have set a reserved price for every top antique cultural relics and artwork sold today. Only when the auction reserved price can it be truly completed. Everyone is welcome to compete enthusiastically!”

Before he finished speaking, the scene was completely boiling, and almost everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"What? I heard it right? The starting price of this "Holy Mother of Rock" is 2.5 billion euros. Is this guy Steven crazy? Why don't he grab it?"

"Oh my God! This is definitely the highest starting price in the history of antique art auctions, which is unheard of! This guy Steven is so crazy and greedy!"

Just as people were screaming, a less harmonious voice suddenly sounded at the scene, which reached everyone's ears.

"Steven, start quickly. I can't wait to get this "Holy Mother of Rock". If I can get what I want, I will enshrine this masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci!"

It was Mariya who spoke loudly, the richest female Italian woman who performed very eagerly.

Obviously, she had successfully taken the photo of Leonardo da Vinci's "Lisa Gladini" from Ye Tian before, which made her taste the huge sweetness, and today she was preparing to do it the same way!

The day after filming "Lisa Gladini", the stocks of the Maria family business began to soar like a rocket, and her own net worth increased by tens of billions of euros in one day!

When such a good thing happens again, who is willing to miss it?

With Maria's words, everyone at the scene looked at the richest female Italian.

The moment I saw her, everyone thought of what happened last year. Everyone's eyes lit up and then they began to rub their hands and prepare to fight!

Ye Tian, ​​who was standing behind the auction table, looked at Maria in the stands, and then smiled and said aloud:
Chapter completed!
