After introducing Pierre and the others, Xiao Ran began to deal with the paintings wrapped on the table.
He first carefully removed the metal components from the back of the painting and put it aside, and then gradually unwrapped the tarpaulin wrapping the painting.
When the last layer of oilcloth was lifted, a beautiful realistic oil painting was finally presented to everyone.
In the painting, a seven or eight-year-old girl wearing a red dress and a sun hat is running freely on the grass with a bright smile on her face.
The whole painting is rich in color, full of sunshine and air, real and simple.
The little girl in the painting is full of spirituality, lively and cute, without any pretense, free and unrestrained.
The moment they saw this painting, everyone was attracted by its beauty and admired it intently.
All the professionals, including Xiao Ran, were so shocked that they froze on the spot.
A moment later, an appraisal expert from the Musée d'Orsay suddenly exclaimed with excitement.
"Oh my God! This is Repina"
"This is a work by the greatest Russian painter Repin. It is a realistic oil painting he created for his daughter Repina"
With this burst of exclamations, everyone woke up.
Then, Xiao Ran nodded in surprise.
"Yes, this is the work of Repin, the greatest Russian painter. It is so precious!"
"Only under the paintbrush of her father Repin can Repina appear so relaxed, natural and unrestrained!"
"This is similar to Repina in "Dragonfly", one of Repin's famous representative works!"
"In this realistic oil painting, we can still vaguely see some impressionistic colors."
Before she finished speaking, Elaine nodded in agreement.
"Dear, you are right, this is the work of the master of art Repin"
"Only Repin can draw such a relaxed and cheerful Repina"
Several appraisal experts at the scene and on the big-screen TV nodded in unison, and everyone was excited.
Immediately afterwards, the director of MOMA couldn’t wait to say:
"Sean, please transfer this Repin work to our museum."
"We can sit down and discuss the terms of the transaction, and everything will be easy to discuss!"
After hearing this, Thomas and the others immediately became anxious.
This is one of the representative works of the greatest Russian painter. It is a top-notch work of art. Who wouldn’t want it?
"Sean, our museum is interested in acquiring this "Rebina", please make a price."
Thomas also made a takeover request.
Immediately afterwards, the director of the Guggenheim Museum and Pierre, as well as several appraisal experts from the Musée d'Orsay, also made offers to purchase it.
Not only them, but the guys in the collector's live broadcast room also jumped out and rushed to make acquisition requests.
"Xiao Ran, my boss wants this painting "Rebina"
"You can set whatever price you want, no counter-offering!"
Quan Da Nanshan Kindergarten said proudly and very generously.
Almost every top collector and museum representative watching the live broadcast wants to acquire this top-notch work of art.
Especially those rich Russians and top collectors are in an even more urgent mood!
Unfortunately, they don't have Xiao Ran's contact information and can't contact him for the time being!
At this moment, Xiao Ran suddenly smiled and said:
"Everyone, please be patient. Let's not talk about the sale of this painting "Rebina" for now. We will talk about it later!"
"Let's first appreciate and appraise this realistic oil painting to determine its authenticity and value."
Everyone nodded and didn't say much, knowing it would be useless.
After a pause, Xiao Ran said a few more words of emotion.
"What I didn't expect was that Alexei actually collected such a representative work of Repin. What an unexpected surprise!"
"It's not surprising when you think about it! Feixin is Repin's most admired disciple, and he and Repina are good friends. It's normal to have her portrait."
"Alexei is Feixin's son, so he inherited this oil painting and kept it close to him, keeping it secret until I discovered it today!"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly felt itchy at the roots of their teeth and became jealous with envy.
Even if you get a bargain, you still behave well! Treat yourself like a human being, you bastard!
While secretly complaining, Thomas and the others had gathered around the table and began to appreciate and appraise the painting "Rebina"
In fact, this realistic oil painting is very easy to identify.
Just like Xiao Ran said just now.
Only when facing her father Repin, did Repina act so relaxed and spiritual, without any trace of artificiality!
Only Repin, the master of art, can draw such a perfect and natural Repin.
All of this stems from his heartfelt love and deep affection for his daughter.
In this oil painting, Repin used simple colors, not showing off, and mainly used warm tones, which made the whole picture permeated with a strong sense of family affection and intimacy!
This is the best basis for identification, and others cannot imitate it!
What's more, this oil painting also has Repin's personal signature, so the provenance is even clearer.
After a while, Xiao Ran and several French modern art appraisal experts came to a unanimous appraisal conclusion.
No need to ask about the result.
This is undoubtedly Repin's work, a truly top-notch work of art.
The MOMA curator, Thomas and others who were also present did not have any objections.
Even so, when the identification results came out, there was still a burst of exclamations at the scene and in front of countless live broadcasts.
Every voice is full of envy and jealousy, so thick that it can't be dissolved!
Before the exclamation could end, a reporter suddenly interrupted and asked:
"Sean, since it is determined that this is one of the representative works of the greatest Russian painter Repin, its value must be very amazing!"
"Can you give an accurate valuation? How much is this "Rebina" worth? Everyone must want to know!"
Following this question, everyone looked over.
Xiao Ran looked at the reporter who asked the question, pretended to think about it, and then gave the valuation.
"It is rare to see Repin's paintings in the current art auction market. His works are basically collected by top collectors and museums and rarely enter the market."
"Under such circumstances, it is difficult to value Repin's work, especially such a representative work full of love."
"If I had to give a valuation for this "Rebina", my valuation would be more than 50 million US dollars."
"In the eyes of many Russian collectors, this painting "Rebina" is a priceless treasure, and any price is normal!"
Hearing this valuation, the general managers of the three major auction houses, Thomas, Pierre and others all nodded slightly.
Obviously, they all agree with this valuation.
In the eyes of countless viewers who watched this treasure hunt live broadcast, this valuation was too shocking!
"Oh my God! 50 million US dollars, did I hear that correctly? This is too exaggerated!"
"It's just a portrait, and it's actually valued at US$50 million. Isn't it too high? Isn't this guy Sean taking the opportunity to hype it?"
These guys who are talking about it obviously do not understand Repin's status in the Russian painting world and his status in the hearts of Russians!
Xiao Ran did not respond to the comments coming from the earphones.
After admiring the "Rebina" for a while again, he handed the oil painting to Elaine and asked her to put it away.
He walked to the open door of the secret room and said to the excited Nick:
"Nick, keep turning the winch and see what treasures you can find!"
"Obviously, there are not only Fei Xin's paintings in this secret room, but also many bigger surprises hidden in it."
"Okay, Sean."
Nick nodded in response.
Immediately afterwards, this guy turned the winch again and pulled out the treasures hidden deep in the secret room one by one!
As the winch turned, another painting appeared at the door of the secret room and appeared in front of everyone.
The size of this painting is slightly larger, about 120*100, and it is still wrapped with a layer of black moisture-proof oilcloth.
Although this result had been expected for a long time, the appearance of this painting still caused a commotion at the scene and countless live broadcasts!
