Chapter 1728 【1728】Genuine, but not entirely true
"The latter two things are more miraculous than the other." When Anru Taylor said this, the corner of his mouth revealed a deep meaning.
"Amazing?" Seeing this, Anjou Prince immediately picked up a magnifying glass to carefully observe and appraise it.
The second collection is a treasured sword.
Or more precisely, a standard medieval knight's longsword.
The long sword is open, and it looks like it has been through battle. There are many small wears and holes on the blade and blade.
No fault can be found in the whole sword, whether it is historical traces, workmanship, materials, etc.
Especially a small unique inscription on the hilt of its sword, which directly exposed its identity and origin.
…
After Anjou Prince's appraisal, he immediately became certain, "This knight's long sword is absolutely genuine."
"Whether it is from the perspective of historical research or the long sword itself, every detail is impeccable!"
"Especially its unique, hollowed-out Lancelot inscription, which has gone through countless battles and fires, and has undergone countless baptisms of blood and flesh before it is finally poured and filled, and it cannot be reproduced!"
"Because no one knows what kind of complicated conditions, what kind of flesh and blood, and how to concoct it, so that such a pouring inscription can finally be realized..."
…
"I have seen the information on this long sword at Sotheby's auction house. Many top appraisers of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets unanimously concluded that the inscription on it, which was filled with blood, sweat and unknown elements, is no longer possible. Replica!"
"Even if the owner of this sword is reborn, it won't work!"
"So I can assure you that this is the long sword of Lancelot, one of the Knights of the Round Table during King Arthur's time!"
Anru Taylor smiled and said nothing, just looked at Ye Feng.
Seeing this, Anjou Prince followed suit.
Ye Feng could only say, "What Prince said is indeed the truth."
Anjou Prince relaxed subconsciously when he heard the sound, and was about to answer.
But Ye Feng continued, "However, the conclusion she said was wrong."
"Lancelot's knight's long sword was broken by him as early as the Middle Ages!"
"At the Battle of Camlan that year, King Arthur died in battle. Queen Guinevia went to the monastery to repent after hearing the news. Lancelot, who was deeply in love with her, learned of the situation and went to the monastery to ask for a visit, but the other party No matter how much Lancelot begged, he refused to see him, and in desperation he became a monk."
"And the knight's long sword that accompanied him in battle all his life was also broken by his own hands the night before he became a monk!"
"So, although the inscription on this knight's long sword is indeed poured by Lancelot with blood and flesh during the battle, it cannot be faked, but this sword is still not genuine!"
"..."
"This...how is this possible?" Anjou Prince opened his mouth wide, unable to figure it out, "Since the inscription on the hilt of the knight's long sword is indeed poured by Lancelot's blood and flesh during the battle. Moreover, other parts of this knight's long sword are also in line with the style of King Arthur, and all other details match, so how can it not be genuine?"
"I'm not Miss Li."
Anru Taylor looked at Ye Feng with some surprise, "Mr. Ye continues."
Ye Feng picked up the knight's long sword, tried to swing it, and then smiled slightly, "Because this knight's long sword is made of two knight's long swords."
"The hilt part is from Lancelot's knight's long sword, and the sword body is from another knight's long sword of the same period."
"In this way, the traces of Lancelot on the hilt will be impeccable, and the blade will conform to all the details of that era."
"So, he is genuine, but not completely real."
"My God!" Anru Prince obviously never dreamed of doing this, and immediately turned to look at his father, "Is what Ye Feng said right?"
"This sword, is this really how it came from?"
"That forger is too smart! In this case, the appraisers of later generations will hardly be able to see the clues!"
Anru Taylor nodded, "Mr. Ye, you really deserve the evaluation of being a super-class figure in the field of antique identification!"
"This 'Lancelot's Knight's Long Sword' is indeed a patchwork of two knight's long swords. It has been circulated in the upper class of the Empire on which the sun never sets for many years, but no one has noticed anything unusual. If it weren't for me That friend accidentally rescued an old man, and the old man's ancestors happened to follow Lancelot, and knowing the inside story, this knight's long sword may have to be misunderstood in the upper class of the foggy city for a long time!"
"Mr. Ye is by far the first appraiser who has seen the clues of this sword without relying on other means!"
Ye Feng smiled slightly, but did not answer.
Anjou Prince was overjoyed, "Father, have you recognized Ye Feng's antique accomplishments? Let's just forget about the third antique and go directly to the next stage of examination."
"Save everyone's time."
Anru Taylor should have similar intentions, and nodded after hearing the sound, "That's fine."
"After the previous two rounds of collection appraisal, Mr. Ye has indeed proved his attainments in antiques..."
Ye Feng turned his attention to the third collection, "The third collection, are you sure you don't want me to appraise it?"
Anru Taylor's words froze as soon as he reached his lips.
Instead, he subconsciously asked, "What do you think of this painting?"
"The person who gave me this painting said that the situation of this painting is still an unsolved case in the collection circle of the Empire on which the sun never sets."
"It is absolutely certain that this "Last Judgment" is not the work of Michelangelo, and it does not even look like it was written by him; however, after joint identification by countless appraisers, it can be confirmed that this painting is indeed from Michelangelo The renaissance period that Chiro lived in. The more popular inferences on the market at present are that other painters at that time imitated Michelangelo's masterpiece "The Last Judgment"; or it was a counterfeit of the Renaissance. , which has been passed down to this day..."
Ye Feng shook his head, "Although these inferences are very reasonable, they are all wrong."
"This "Last Judgment" is neither an imitation nor a so-called fake."
"Strictly speaking, it is actually a famous work, and its value is extremely amazing."
"Once its true origin is exposed, conservatively estimate, it can sell for at least 100 million dollars!"
