The most expensive and strangest painting in the world.

in art •  7 years ago 

The price of the paintings may be associated with the name of the artist and his fame or financial support among the buyers to get them to the world prices may not be imaginable.
But does the painting of the Savior of the World by the legendary painter da Vinci deserve this fantastic price of 450 million Dollar?

It is believed that Da Vinci, one of the greatest painters of all time, completed the painting that embodies Christ, called the Savior of the World around 1500 AD, almost the same time as his famous Monalisa.
The "world Savior" was sold for only $ 58 some 60 years ago, as experts suspected it was not a genuine painting of Davinci, and was bought by an American businessman at about $ 9,700 at an auction at a small exhibit in New York nearly 12 years ago.
According to the British Guardian, it was confirmed in 2011 that the painting is indeed a work of Da Vinci, and is the first real discovery of the work of this painter since 1909.
The paper pointed out that the painting puzzled the experts because of the glass ball carried by Christ supposed in the picture and clearly reflect what was left behind.
"I do not know if Da Vinci had intended to draw the ball this way or not," said Walter Azacson, historian of the biography of Da Vinci. "It's really puzzling."
He added: "Usually the light passes through the glass ball upside down or broken, but the ball in the painting looks like a crystal ball that clearly reflects what it left behind. There is a possibility that Da Vinci wanted to convey a message about the miraculous power of Christ."
The glass ball usually produces magnified, reversed or reversed shapes, but the ball in this painting looks like a hollow glass that does not flip or distort the light passing through it, Azacson said.
