Precious collections in Louvre, in addition to three treasures of Louvre recognized by Chinese, there are other precious collections, and there are stories behind countless precious collections.
Walking around Louvre, sometimes you can see people sitting in twos and threes sitting on ground in front of some famous painting, copying paintings hanging on wall, with brushes and paper in their hands.
Among them was a man who looked like a teacher, who pointed to famous paintings and explained them in a low voice. I have to say that this is truly a heaven for learning to paint.
In collection of famous paintings of Louvre, an interesting incident occurred related to painting "Mona Lisa". Although Mona Lisa portrait was bought in Italy by French king, in recent years an Italian posing as an employee hired to service painting at Louvre has rolled up Mona Lisa Portraits brought straight back. to Italy.
The Louvre Museum didn't find it at all. That was until Mona Lisa portrait was discovered by Louvre while it was in an exhibition hall in Italy, and France took initiative to return it. . Although practice of "stealing" is discouraged, Italian "kidnapper" was punished only symbolically, probably because what he took was a work of art from his own country, and probably because of his bravery.
Today's portrait of Mona Lisa is protected by heavy glass windows, tourists can only look at it from afar, but can no longer touch it.
In David's painting The Coronation of Napoleon and Empress Josephine, a scene not included in painting is that Napoleon directly snatched crown from Pope during his coronation and put it on himself. This shocking act caused more than a hundred people who participated in picture to express different emotions. Especially shock of pope was simply indescribable, and supreme pope did not expect that someone would turn out to be so bold and wayward.
Napoleon went from bottom of society to top of society step by step. At that time, he was proud of himself, and he had no remorse, so he naturally did not pay attention to all red tape. A masterpiece is a masterpiece In The Coronation of Napoleon and Empress Josephine, each character has rich facial expressions and body movements that fully reveal inner drama of characters.
Dad was shocked and helpless. Ministers should have serious faces, and now they have strange expressions. If there is an internal monologue, then I am afraid that they both fear wrath of pope and envy courage of Napoleon.
David, of course, did not dare to fully express real historical facts in pictures. With idea, he kept true facial expressions of ministers in picture, but omitted image of Napoleon with a crown on his head. In his painting, Napoleon holds crown of Empress and personally crowns Empress Josephine, while Pope is full of approval.
Walking around Louvre in front of countless statues, you can see that these statues have plump muscles and strong bones, some of them are statues of gods, and others are humblest slaves of that era. Although some of these slaves have their hands tied, someone is torn off, and someone is dying ... No matter how difficult the situation, their heads are proudly raised, and they never lose heart from temporary setbacks.
Walking around Louvre, learning about these art treasures, you can also indirectly understand that period of history and history that happened in a certain period of this history.
