Chapter 1574 Public Exhibition
On the second floor of the Metropolitan Museum, there is a small independent exhibition hall next to the European Painting Museum.
Jason and three employees of the Brave Fearless Exploration Company are moving exhibitions with four or five Metropolitan Museum staff!
Rafael's "The Virgin" and Michelangelo's "Mourning of Christ", as well as several other top-notch antique artworks, have been taken out of the box and leaned against the wall.
Matisse stood with several armed security personnel with guns, standing in front of these priceless top antique artworks, always on high alert and protecting these top antique artworks.
Since the booth has not been arranged and the indoor light has not been adjusted to its best state, the top antique artworks did not reveal their true appearances and were still contained in sealed bags.
Even so, the many senior management of the Metropolitan Museum, antique art appraisal experts, and staff in the exhibition hall were always looking at those treasures, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot.
On the other hand, Thomas, director of the Metropolitan Museum, is introducing Ye Tian’s exhibition situation and various security measures in the exhibition hall.
"Steven, we are in an independent exhibition hall. There are no windows on all four walls, only an entrance and exit of the exhibition hall door, so natural light cannot be penetrated at all.
These top antique artworks from Napoleon's treasures have been sleeping in the dark for more than 200 years. They are still a little fragile and are not very adaptable to the external environment.
In view of this, we chose this place as the exhibition hall for the first time to exhibit these top antique artworks, and protect these priceless antique artworks as much as possible.
We replaced the lighting systems, air conditioning systems, ventilation equipment, etc. in this exhibition hall in time and replaced them with the most advanced equipment today.
Here, the light is controllable, and the temperature and humidity can also be accurately controlled. We will provide the most perfect exhibition conditions based on the situation of those top antique artworks.
The wall in front of us is facing the exhibition hall door. You can see it as soon as you enter the exhibition hall. It is incredibly located and is the most important display wall in the entire exhibition hall. There is no doubt about this.
The two displays on the wall, one left and one right, on the left, will be used to display Raphael's "The Virgin" and the right will be used to display Michelangelo's "Mourning Christ""
While introducing, Thomas also gestured with joy, looking very excited.
Ye Tian looked at the wall in front of him, turned to look at the main entrance of the exhibition hall behind, and then nodded with a smile:
"Yes, this wall and these two displays are really good. Visitors who come here to visit can see these two displays at a glance just by walking into this exhibition hall.
It is obviously perfect to display Raphael's "The Virgin" and Michelangelo's "Mourning of Christ" here. These two gold displays are very consistent with their value and status.
Thomas nodded slightly and continued the introduction.
"You can see that there are two layers of bulletproof glass with extremely high transparency outside these two gold displays, which do not affect tourists' visits, but also provide very reliable security.
These bulletproof glasses are extremely strong and can withstand close-range shooting of automatic rifle bullets. Other weapons like fire axes cannot do anything to these bulletproof glasses in a short period of time.
More importantly, the display stand behind the bulletproof glass has automatic lifting function. Below these two display seats, two titanium alloy safes are hidden inside the wall.
Once bulletproof glass is attacked or someone tries to cut, the display stand inside will immediately sink and quickly retract it into the titanium alloy safe with the displayed artwork.
The two titanium alloy safes hidden in the wall are not only very strong and extremely difficult to cut, but they are also connected to the wall and floor slabs, and the connection is very firm.
In this way, even if a robber luckily breaks into this independent exhibition hall, it is impossible to succeed in a short period of time. They can only stand in front of this wall and sigh!
In addition, the two titanium alloy safes are located in the walls, which can effectively resist the invasion of fire in a short period of time.
Steven, according to the agreement, after completing the exhibition, these two displays will be completely locked. Only when we are present at the same time and enter our fingerprint password can we open them.
It is no exaggeration to say that the level of these two security display systems is no less than the security display system equipped by the Louvre for "Mona Lisa", and it is even better.
Also, this exhibition hall is located in the center of the second floor of the museum. If anyone wants to enter this exhibition hall, they must first enter the museum and cannot make any idea on the exterior wall of the exhibition hall.
While Thomas was talking endlessly, Ye Tian had secretly turned on his perspective and saw the wall in front of him and the mechanism inside the wall clearly, without any omissions!
As Mattis said, these two small security display systems are very advanced and strong, with almost no loopholes!
The elevator connecting the display rack, the two titanium alloy safes integrated with the wall and the floor, as well as the miniature fire protection system, etc., are all in the best condition and are completely new!
After completely looking through the wall in front of him and finding that there was no problem, Ye Tian then withdrew his gaze with satisfaction and ended the perspective.
Immediately afterwards, he said to Thomas:
"Thomas, let me introduce other security measures in this exhibition hall, I'm very interested."
"Okay, Steven"
Thomas nodded and then continued to introduce.
"After reaching a loan exhibition agreement with you, we immediately transformed the security system of this exhibition hall as quickly as possible, eliminated all outdated equipment, and replaced it with the most advanced equipment.
Not only is there the most advanced and safest display system here, it is also covered with infrared and thermal imaging monitoring equipment, dynamic capture systems, and other security systems that I can't call it name at all.
It is no exaggeration to say that when the exhibition ends and the museum closes, even if a mouse enters the exhibition hall, he will not escape the eyes of the museum security personnel.
In addition to the most advanced high-tech security system, we will also equip this exhibition hall with the best security personnel, and people will visit back and forth for 24 hours without interruption.
Once something happens here, the museum security personnel will arrive as soon as possible. The Upper Manhattan Police Station, which is not far away, will also arrive here within ten minutes...
Next, Thomas continued to introduce the security measures of this independent exhibition hall, which was very detailed.
During this period, Ye Tian turned on the perspective several times and secretly looked through the independent exhibition hall completely.
Everything, as Thomas said, the security measures in this independent exhibition hall are very complete and tight, and there are almost no loopholes found.
After Thomas finished introducing the article, Ye Tian immediately continued:
"I am very satisfied, Thomas, you have arranged it very carefully and almost impeccable. I feel much more at ease about the exhibition of Raphael and Michelangelona's two paintings.
In accordance with the agreement reached before, during the public exhibition, I will send two security personnel and two company employees to take turns to cooperate and supervise the exhibition activities for the next period of time.
"It's OK, Steven, since we have reached an agreement, of course we have to follow the agreement."
Thomas nodded and responded, but a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
As soon as he finished speaking, a Metropolitan Museum staff member in his thirties suddenly came over and said to Ye Tian and Thomas excitedly:
"The preparations have been completed, there are no problems, and you can move in the exhibition."
Hearing this, Thomas's face immediately burst into an extremely bright smile.
"Let's get started, Steven, I can't wait to see Rafael's "The Virgin" and Michelangelo's "My Mothering Christ". They must be very beautiful and shocking."
As he said that, Thomas looked at the top antique artworks leaning against the wall, his eyes shining brightly. Although the top antique artworks were covered with sealed bags, he could not see anything!
The rest of the people at the scene were the same, and they looked over there, and everyone's eyes were extremely hot.
"You are right, Thomas, those two outstanding Renaissance paintings are indeed very beautiful, and their artistic charm is enough to shock people!
Just follow the standards I gave before, lower the lights in the exhibition hall, and when the lighting conditions are appropriate, you can see Raphael and Michelangelo.
Ye Tian said loudly with a smile on his face, his words slightly sensational.
After saying that, he stepped out and walked towards the top antique artwork leaning against the wall, his pace was extremely light.
At the same time, a staff member of the Metropolitan Museum held an iPad and quickly operated it on it, with very familiar movements.
The next moment, the lights in the exhibition hall immediately dimmed, but it did not affect people's appreciation of the artwork!
Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian carefully opened a black sealed bag, took out the paintings contained in them, and displayed them in front of everyone.
With his movement, a marvelous sound immediately sounded in the exhibition hall.
Chapter completed!
