Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Perhaps because the arrival of Liang En and the others was an important matter for the prince, the palace made appropriate arrangements not long after he made the decision.

Soon, the manservant named John came over and told them that everything was ready, so the two people immediately left the room and checked the prepared studio to prepare for the subsequent painting.

They are all top-notch dyes, and some of them are ancient dyes that have been out of print. After checking some of the dyes, Liang En showed a slightly surprised expression.

Let’s not talk about dyes like ultramarine, which are very expensive in any era. Production of Indian yellow has long been stopped, and the only ones placed here are the stocks of the princes of Monaco.

As a famous trading center in history, the rulers here have never been short of money. Naturally, they pursue the top in various collections, and the dyes required for paintings are no exception. Even if they don't use them, they will hoard a lot as part of their wealth.

However, painting tools are another matter. Liang En still prefers to use his own equipment at this time, because these tools are more comfortable only if he is familiar with them.

Somewhat unexpectedly, during dinner, the prince's family invited them to have dinner. This is not a treatment that all artists can enjoy, but as the heir of a duke and a scholar, this kind of hospitality is inevitable.

What is somewhat surprising is that the whole family of the prince was present for the dinner, including the prince himself, the queen and their two children. Fortunately, the atmosphere in their home was generally quite relaxed, so the whole banquet felt good.

What impressed Liang En the most was the prince's two underage children. They seemed to be very interested in archeology and history. During the chat, they kept asking Liang En about things he had encountered during previous excavations and research. .

This is indeed one of the characteristics of the royal family's training of children, which is to learn some subjects that children like and it is basically impossible to make money.

From a certain perspective, this is true throughout the West. For example, if you go to a top university to see the background of students majoring in natural history, Latin literature, etc., you will find that they are all the kind who are definitely not short of money. people.

The Monaco royal family is no exception. One of their ancestors has made great achievements in the investigation of marine life. Even today, their oceanographic museum is a famous national business card.

Therefore, it is not surprising that children of this generation like archeology and history. After all, traditionally, archeology or history is also a recognized thing and a major studied by nobles.

Even in Western cognition, people easily connect archeology and clan. For example, Lara Croft in the famous Tomb Raider series is a hereditary noble.

After discovering that these two children were really interested in archeology and history, Liang En exchanged email addresses with them and said that he would tell them about any discoveries in the future. At the same time, they could ask him if they had any questions about history.

This can be regarded as a good relationship. After all, those nobles have the habit of finding some famous scholars to provide their descendants with certain aspects of education. However, the people they want to find in this field are carefully selected. Being selected is also an honor.

For example, someone like Liang En could disclose his identity as a teacher. This is also a recognition of his professional and technical level, which is not a bad thing.

In addition, Liang En was willing to say that another reason why these two little guys remained friendly was because he found that these two people really liked history and archeology, and it was indeed worth imparting some knowledge to them.

When the painting officially started on the next day, the prince and princess naturally didn't have much time to come over and look at it. Of course, their status was not suitable for doing this kind of thing, but the two little guys often came over to see Liang En's creations.

As people from such a family, they are naturally educated in art. Although their education is far from professional, they can still appreciate it simply.

Although they could not understand what Liang En was doing specifically, they were very interested in how to create an oil painting from beginning to end and hoped to understand how the painting was painted.

What's more important is that Liang En likes to chat with people when he is creating, so in addition to chatting with Joan of Arc, he will also answer some questions related to archeology and history raised by the two little guys.

This can also be regarded as a habit of Liang En when he is creating, that is, he does not ask for silence when creating like many people, but hopes to chat with others at this time.

At first, the two children were very quiet, but after noticing that Liang En and Jeanne were chatting enthusiastically, they asked Liang En about this matter during lunch, and then they also started chatting with Liang En.

Time often flies when you are concentrating on creating something, so with the cooperation of a group of people, Liang En also rarely fishes, but spends most of his time in this room. Painting in the studio.

As for those free time, Liang Enze spent most of it working with Joan of Arc and working with the twins' tutor to teach the little ones various historical and archaeological knowledge.

To be honest, this is also their first time to teach some juniors, so they are quite concerned about this matter. Liang En even drew some sketches to match his own content.

In addition, he also felt at this time that living in such a large house was indeed very comfortable, especially an ancient house with a mountain behind and facing the sea.

It's a pity that they have too many secrets that they don't want others to know, and if you want to live in such a big house, you need a lot of people to maintain it, so this kind of thing is just a thought.

Finally, more than a week later, Liang En completed this oil painting, which he called Winter in Monaco. In this painting, the inspirations of these masters were perfectly integrated, which can be regarded as His creations are exquisite.

The entire oil painting shows a prosperous scene, but the various plants and the sea interspersed with this prosperity caused by humans weaken the cold feeling and look full of life.

Even if a person doesn’t know anything about oil painting and comes to look at it, he will feel the prosperity and beauty of the city behind it from this painting. This is the characteristic of top-notch works of art - a kind of painting that transcends civilization, race, and education. huge degree of contagion.

Very good, this painting is very good. When the oil painting was completed, the prince took his princess to visit the oil painting, and made a sound of exclamation after seeing the oil painting for the first time.

Maybe for other people, this painting shows a prosperous city that is in harmony with nature, but for the prince family, it has another meaning, which is that it implies a certain problem with their family's rule. kind of praise.

After all, as rulers who have ruled here for hundreds of years, the prosperity of the city can naturally be regarded as a huge contribution they have made, which is why they are happy.
