Nie Tianqin felt relieved when he heard Nie Guangyi say so directly that he should be fired.

Now he also recalled a little bit about the feeling of getting along with his son in the past.

As long as he, as a father, stops being so cautious, it will be easy to tell what is serious and what is joking.

Furthermore, the reason why Nie Guangyi had a problem with Tongji was because of his inappropriate behavior fourteen years ago.

It's not that I really don't like this school or anything.

Now that both father and son have settled their differences, and knowing that there is a capable person in the firm who is his father's former student, it is impossible to lose points on his resume no matter what.

The Nie family's father and son were lying on the bed chatting, talking about the years they had missed each other. They mostly talked about meaningless daily topics, and they talked all night long.

After all, the two fathers and daughters in the next door's Mengxinzhi room had only been separated for a few days. Although there was endless talk, Zongji went back to his room to sleep after an hour.

Meng Xinzhi had finally adjusted to the jet lag, but Zongji didn't want to get out of it again because of his arrival.

As soon as Meng Xinzhi fell asleep, he started dreaming.

Her dreams are very healthy.

But the first second after entering this dream, I was shocked by the scale.

A man wore a very close-fitting skirt.

The upper body is as thin as a cicada's wings, and the ribs are clearly defined.

This doesn't really matter, after all, it's a man's upper body.

The problem is that the two points on the chest are specifically highlighted.

Although the two points on a man's chest can't be seen, there is no problem.

The highlighted behavior is a bit weird.

This man has his left hand on his hip and a sword in his right hand.

Standing there motionless.

Meng Xinzhi's first reaction in the dream was to close her eyes in fear.

But that's only for the first reaction.

She quickly realized that she might have broken into the scene where Verrocchio was creating the bronze statue of David.

The name Verrocchio may not be familiar to many people.

If his identity as Leonardo da Vinci's teacher were revealed, more people might know about it.

Furthermore, if his identity is revealed as the person who has been asking Leonardo da Vinci to paint eggs, more people will surely suddenly realize it.

Verrocchio is not a name that is familiar to the public, but he was not only the teacher of Leonardo da Vinci, but also the teacher of Botticelli and Perugino.

The four words Perugino seem even more unfamiliar, but it doesn't matter, this man is Raphael's teacher.

The three post-Renaissance masters, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael.

Leonardo da Vinci was Verrocchio's apprentice.

Raphael was a disciple of Verrocchio.

Two of the three heroes are directly related to Verrocchio.

There is only one Michelangelo left, so it has nothing to do with him, right?

Sorry, Michelangelo created "David" under the influence of Verrocchio.

David is a shepherd boy in the Bible story. This shepherd boy was so heroic that he blocked the attack of the giant Goliath. He was deeply loved and became the king of the Jews.

When talking about the Statue of David, people will first think of Michelangelo's one of the top ten sculptures in the world - the most boastful male figure without clothes in the history of Western art.

This statue of David was so famous in later generations that many people did not notice that there are three particularly famous statues of David in the history of Western art.

Michelangelo's David is a marble statue, and the other two are bronze Davids.

Bronze statues of David, except for the one that was being created by Leonardo da Vinci’s teacher in Meng Xinzhi’s dream.

There is another one, by Donatello.

Donatello's David and Michelangelo's masterpiece share the same minimalist dressing style - naked.

In such a comparison, although Meng Xinzhi's first reaction was that the scale of the creative scene in the dream was a bit large, the fact was that it had given her the greatest degree of dress-friendly friendliness.

In any case, Verrocchio's David statue, no matter how close-fitting the upper body is and how prominent it is, the lower body is covered by a "short skirt" that completely covers the places that should be covered.

Speaking of which, the reputation of Verrocchio's David is not too doubtful.

In the history of Western art, there was once a very interesting legend that Michelangelo found Leonardo da Vinci as a model for his statue of David.

This argument is obviously untenable.

Not to mention that Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo have always had a "king can't see the king" attitude.

The mere fact that Leonardo da Vinci was 23 years older than Michelangelo is enough to prove this.

When Michelangelo began to create "David", Leonardo da Vinci was almost fifty years old. He could not be the prototype of the statue of David with a strong body, a firm expression, and full muscles full of young male hormones.

The reason why such a legend is left behind.

First of all, Michelangelo's David is so famous.

Secondly, Western art historians do believe that Leonardo da Vinci once served as a model for the statue of David.

Not by Michelangelo, but by his mentor Verrocchio.

It is impossible to verify how good Leonardo da Vinci was at singing when he was young. There was no phonograph during the Renaissance.

How handsome Leonardo da Vinci was when he was young. Many Western art historians would point their fingers at Verrocchio's bronze statue of David.

During the Renaissance, when realistic works were valued, if the model of the statue really looked like Leonardo da Vinci when he was young, then Da Vinci would not only be handsome, but also have a great figure.

Verrocchio's bronze statue of David was created in 1476, when Leonardo da Vinci was 24 years old.

It happened to be the age when Leonardo da Vinci started his apprenticeship.

Verrocchio had an absolute preference for Leonardo da Vinci.

Leonardo da Vinci's rise to fame in the painting world is closely related to the sacrifice of his mentor Verrocchio's painting career.

Time goes back to 1472.

That year, Leonardo da Vinci was 20 years old and had already studied with Verrocchio for four or five years. He painted eggs so well that he was listed on the list of members of the Painters Guild in Florence.

But that's just for inclusion.

Soon after, his mentor Verrocchio received a commission from the Savile Church.

The content of the commission was to create an oil painting with the theme of the Baptism of Christ.

After accepting the commission, Verrocchio painted "The Baptism of Christ" himself, but he only reached 95% of the painting.

In the center of this work is Jesus being baptized. He has a pious face and hands clasped together in a praying posture.

John the Baptist on the right takes a ladle of river water and pours it on Jesus' head.

At the top of the painting, God stretches out his arms and doves glow golden.

There are two little angels on the lower left, responsible for helping Jesus get his clothes when he was baptized.

One angel is facing the viewer, the other is sideways, somewhat with his back to the viewer, and has only one side face.

Verrocchio himself finished painting the little angel facing the viewer, and the last angel with a side face was handed over to Leonardo da Vinci, who had not yet shown his amazing talent in the field of painting.

Leonardo da Vinci finished the painting quickly and used the technique of perspective.

Verrocchio was stunned by the side-faced little angel painted by Leonardo da Vinci.

Looking at my own 95%, it is simply not as good as the last 5% added by my apprentice.

Verrocchio's preference for Leonardo reached its peak at this moment.

This painting master who directly influenced the three masters of the Renaissance directly announced that he would stop painting.

He believed that he had completed his historical mission in the field of painting, and no matter how much he painted, he could never catch up with his students.

Verrocchio's closure was not just talk, he really never picked up a paintbrush again throughout his life.

After the completion of "The Baptism of Christ", Verrocchio left Florence and went to Venice to concentrate on creating sculptures.

The most famous one is the bronze statue of David.

As a teacher, it is normal to support your students.

However, it still feels a bit exaggerated to insist that I just stop writing, and to brag about my painting skills in front of students.

At that time, many people believed that there was an improper relationship between Verrocchio and Leonardo da Vinci.

Yes, it is the special relationship between men and men.

The issue of Leonardo da Vinci's orientation has been debated endlessly in the history of Western art.

In fact, the biggest stain in Leonardo da Vinci's life was being accused of jian.

This stain occurred in the year the bronze David was created - 1476.
