Chapter 922 "The Cornerstone"

  Located in the smallest country in the world, the Vatican Museum has the most treasures in the world. It can be said without hesitation that any of these collections is enough to become the treasure of some small museums.

  There are 300 doors and more than 2,700 keys in the museum, which are managed by 10 key managers, five are responsible for opening the door, and five key managers are responsible for closing the door. It takes one hour to open a door every day and 90 minutes to close a door.

Whether the door is closed or opened, it must follow the established route. Generally speaking, when visitors enter the museum, the first to see the Temple of the Muse with the "remnant body" in Chen is the first to be closed or opened at the latest. Those who know the secrets can easily get lost in the museum.

  Except for the "high-tech" at the entrance, there are no other anti-theft measures inside the museum. The only modern facility is the elevator.

  From the Pine Cone Courtyard on the second floor, you can take the elevator down to the vicinity of the Sistine Chapel. After all, this is a pathway that employees only know about.

  If you are not guilty or greedy, you will only focus on appreciating the beauty of those precious artworks, which is more effective than any kind of high-tech security facilities.

  There is no bullet-proof glass, nor any offensive anti-theft measures. The most secure area is the secret archive located underground.

But if the intruder armed with a machine gun went in and fired, neither the Swiss guards nor the flesh and blood of the priests and nuns could stop it. But then the intruder would be with Napoleon’s army and the Protestants who caused the Roman disaster. It's the same.

  There is a dress code in the museum. Women's skirts cannot show knees, but the secular requirements from afar are not strict. It doesn't matter if you cover it with a scarf.

  Although this is a museum, it is not a leisure place. Except for the last Sunday at the end of the month, the Vatican Museum is closed every Sunday.

  In addition, when the cardinal elects a new pope, the museum will also be closed, and the sound of the door closing from the depths of the corridor makes people feel hairy.

  Even if a parking lot is built, it is possible to dig up monuments. There is one behind the Vatican Museum. It was once the tomb of the pagans who worshiped the Greek **** Dionysus in the third century.

Early Christian worship of monotheism conflicted with Rome’s polytheism. To preach, missionaries used a lot of pagan elements. The Romans believed that believing in Christianity was treason, so they suppressed it. Christians could only Secret party.

  Orvieto also has underground cities. These caves were built by the Etruscans who settled here more than 2,000 years ago. They were originally used to raise edible white pigeons. By the Middle Ages, more than 400 underground caves were excavated in the passage. These caves were used by the locals for various emergency and temporary purposes, as refuges for residents to escape war or escape passages to the outside world.

These caves are now used by the locals to store wine, but some caves have other uses. If a person is blindfolded, other senses will become very sensitive. It is generally believed that a blind piano tuner will be better than normal. The tuning by the tuner is more accurate.

In those underground caves, the blindfolded Joseph can always hear whispers and sometimes screams, but after removing the blindfolded cloth, the sounds disappeared, as if he had experienced it before. All of them are hallucinations.

  Probably no one will associate Orvieto with the Vatican like him. The small town built on volcanic ash still retains its medieval appearance, full of vineyards and pine trees.

  What's more, the sacred ruins of the bloodshed of the Eucharist were present before Michelangelo painted the final judgment in the Sistine Chapel. Forcibly linking them together is simply far-fetched.

  Mayan civilization records that the earth has been destroyed four times, and the sun disappears every time.

Compared with the impact of meteorites on the earth, Joseph believes that volcanic ash blocked the sun and prevented photosynthesis of plants, which eventually led to the extinction of dinosaurs. At least now, scientists have not found such a large crater. Instead, there is more evidence of species destruction caused by volcanic eruptions. A lot.

  In the face of such a catastrophe, all the persistent and troubled issues become unimportant, and it is not easy to be able to hold the bottom line of "people".

  The human body is a kind of receiver. When the devil passes by, it feels negative and chaotic emotions. When the angel flies over the head, it feels warmth and courage.

  "Are you ready?" Lisa asked with a smile at the door of the chapel.

  Joseph took a deep breath and nodded, "Ready."

  So Lisa opened the door. Unlike the crowded scene during the day, there was no one in the chapel, and the shock of "Genesis" that the blind could not see could hardly be described in words.

  The first painting facing the entrance is Noah Drunk.

  150 days later, the flood gradually receded, leaving Noah's family and the animals and plants in the Ark in the world. After that, Noah began to cultivate the land, opened a vineyard, and planted the first grapes.

  Later, he started making wine again. One day he drank the wine in the garden and fell naked in a tent. When his second son, Coham, saw it, he went to tell his brothers Sem and Japhet. The two of them took their robes and backed into the tent and covered them with his father, without looking at his father. Bare body.

  Noah cursed Khan after waking up from wine, asking God to let Khan’s son Canaan clan be slaves to the Japheth family. He was rude after drinking, but angered his son and punished his grandson as a slave.

  Michelangelo was like this. He wanted to paint nudes. Not only did the church disagree, but even Leonardo didn’t think it was appropriate. Only Luke Brunorelli painted many **** figures in the Last Judgment.

  After Michelangelo’s sculpture of David was completed, Da Vinci suggested to find something to cover him. In the end, David was forced to put on 28 copper fig leaves to hide his shame.

  If the Bozia family must find an advantage, then they are despicable, unscrupulous, corrupt and corrupt, which are also common characteristics of the Renaissance aristocracy.

   There is already an existence like the Bozia family that doesn’t take **** and murder as a matter. As long as they are a little better than them, they are regarded as "gentlemen" in the eyes of the people.

The Medici family is not a good person either. Pope Leo X has not been a priest for a day. When he was elected as the Pope, he was only an adjunct, just like those teenagers playing football in the beautiful park. He even accepted the priest and the priest. Only after the bishop's divine character did he hold the coronation and inauguration of the pope.

  According to legend, when he was chosen as the Pope, he once said to his brother, "Since God has given me the position of Pope, let me enjoy it."

  After he took the throne, he squandered public funds of the Holy See and generously used private money to accelerate the progress of the St. Peter’s Basilica project, increase the Vatican’s collection of books, and make Rome once again the center of Western culture.

As the most outstanding painter, Leonardo da Vinci did not leave many paintings in Rome. His interest at the time was making mirrors. When he was an apprentice in Verrocchio’s workshop, Leonardo was involved in making hangings. The production of copper **** on the dome of Santa Maria del Fiore.

  He is the best painter in the world, but he looks down on his rare and outstanding talent in art, but is obsessed with understanding science.

  Da Vinci also received a commission, but did not complete it, because what attracted him at the time was the technique of refining varnish, which could be used to protect the surface of oil paintings.

He had forgotten what the contract was. At that time, there was Leonardo’s unfinished "Battle of Anghiari" on the wall of Florence's city hall. Opposite it was Michelangelo's unfinished "Battle of Canasi". Neither of them served. Who, the young Michelangelo showed no respect to Leonardo da Vinci, who was 23 years his elder, mocking his overly gorgeous dress, mocking his elegant gentleman manner, mocking his too many unfinished works.

  The biggest difference between these two murals is the characters. All members of "Battle of Anghiari" wear armor, but all members of "Battle of Kanasi" don't wear clothes.

  Da Vinci's painting outlines the unbearable fierce atmosphere in the battle, and the desperate man and the screaming horse have a terrible conflict.

  Michelangelo’s paintings show an unusually weird picture-are the naked men fighting or taking a Turkish bath?

  The "art duel" that took place between two masters of art finally ended in "no disease", because at that time Michelangelo received a commission from the Sistine Chapel.

   "How do you feel?" Lisa asked triumphantly, as if this place was her masterpiece.

   "I don't know what to say." Joseph said, looking at the characters who drew the "figbag" on "The Last Judgment".

  The **** in the painting is very young. It is different from the image of long beard or suffering in ordinary religious paintings, and it looks full of healthy vitality.

  It's like he was born again.

  　 Say where did David’s fig leaf go?

  　　 Renaissance nobles are shameless and bachelor, which is better than wearing a fig leaf. I heard that American hackers are going to break the news. People who eat melons move small benches and wait to watch the fun.
