In Order to Become a Heroic Spirit, I Had to Do Things in History

"Women...that's not important, Lawrence." Verrocchio shook his head. "Lawrence, my student, promise me, can I take this painting to church?"

"Of course, teacher." Annuo pursed his lips and smiled, very quiet.

"Well, it just so happens that my Virgin and Child will be drawn tomorrow, and I just bring it with me." Verrocchio patted Anno's shoulder with a smile.

The painting of the Virgin and Child is a new order he received not long ago, and it happened to be completed today, and he named it "The Virgin and Child of Berlin".

The level of sophistication of the painting is much higher than that of Anno's "Journey to Hell", but the impact and innovation it brings to people will be much less.

The current Catholic Church is not as tough as it was 100 years ago. Besides, Anno’s painting is obviously a tribute to the greatness and fearlessness of Jesus. Isn’t it great to dare to walk in hell?

Although Anno only added Jesus out of zz's correctness, he was not religious himself.

The current Florence ****, the church and the king have a good relationship.

After a simple meal, Anno fell asleep.

But the storm that this painting is about to cause in Florence is already gathering.

===Chapter 160 The fifth epoch-making work===

In the church, the priest prayed quietly.

crunch--

The door was pushed open.

"It's not time for worship yet." The priest said with his back to the visitor.

"It's me, venerable Father Anassaro." Verrocchio put down the things in his hand, and prayed side by side with the priest in the priest's gentle eyes.

After the catastrophe of the last century, although the influence of religion has been greatly weakened, it still does not die. It is just hidden behind the kingship and still spreads faith.

The royal family also strongly supports Catholicism, so in Florence, basically everyone is Catholic, even if it is superficial.

At the end of the prayer, Father Anassaro faced Verrocchio and saluted respectfully: "Good morning, devout believers, Mr. Verrocchio."

"Good morning, Father Anassaro." Verrocchio returned the salute.

"Excuse me, why are you here today...?" Father Anassaro's young and handsome face had a hint of doubt on his face.

"Ah, one is that the order for the church I went to Berlin to paint has been completed."

"Is that so, that's great." Anassaro smiled.

"Also, I brought you a surprise." Verrocchio was excited.

He ran to the back with the bag, and Father Anassaro followed him, curious about the surprise in Verrocchio's mouth.

The two came to a separate room, Verrocchio sat on a stool, took out his own work "The Virgin and Child of Berlin", and handed it to Anassaro.

The priest looked at "The Virgin and Child of Berlin", admiring and intoxicated.

"Excellent work, Verrocchio, your level has not declined."

"Mummy, esteemed Anassaro." Verrocchio laughed twice, "I originally thought my work was very good, but, compared with the painting I'm going to take out next, It pales in comparison.”

"Huh? How could you boast about a painting like that?" Anassaro was slightly surprised, "Whose work is it?"

"Lawrence, you've seen it."

"That student of yours?" Anassaro looked suspiciously.

"You'll understand when you look at it." Verrocchio took out Anno's work "Journey to Hell" and handed it to Father Anassaro.

When the priest took over the painting, the first thing he felt was the strong visual impact.

Then, he saw clearly the content of the painting.

It took 2 minutes to fully understand the painting. Anazaro sat in his seat and did not speak for a long time.

However, his arms trembled slightly, showing that he was not in a calm mood at the moment.

He grabbed Verrocchio's arm.

Verrocchio looked at Father Anassaro with such a smile as he expected: "I knew you would like it, Father."

Anassaro didn't hear anything, just continued to look at the oil painting: "Walking to hell with wings that symbolize holiness... ah, lord..."

"The Virgin and Child of Berlin" has been left behind by the duo, and this epoch-making new work is the focus of attention.

After a long time, he recovered: "Mr. Verrocchio, can I see that Mr. Lawrence?"

"Of course, as long as he agrees." Verrocchio followed suit.

Anno would surely agree.

"I want to buy this painting..."

"Certainly, but perhaps there is a better way than to spend money on it, my Father Anassaro."

"You mean..."

===Chapter 160 The sixth world where only Annuo suffers ===

Outside the Great Catholic Church in Florence, Father Anassaro held a grand exhibition for this new work, featuring the work "Tourism from Hell" by the painter Lawrence Anno Falgaard, Verrocchi Ao's "The Virgin and Child of Berlin" and other works by several of Verrocchio's students are the objects of the exhibition. The main dignitaries and dignitaries living in Florence and the surrounding big cities, as well as some well-known connoisseurs, are invited to the exhibition. to watch.

Lawrence Anno, as the artist who painted the painting "Hell Tour", naturally had to dress up to attend.

An odd black and white hat draped over Anno's head, and his straight black hair was rolled up and fluffed to one side.A beige lining was worn on the inside, with a wide, bulging coat wrapped around it, and a short cape hung over it.

The jacket was cut off at the elbow, and down there were pure black gloves.

The lower part of the body is wearing a pair of blue tight trousers, the kind that are completely close to the body, and a pointed shoe with metal decorations on the feet, and the toes can kick to death.

In addition, Anno also has some gold and jewelry decorations that he usually makes. After all, he mainly studied goldsmiths, and recently he has started to come into contact with jewelry.

All in all, the costumed Anno looks extravagant, gentle, but incomparably weird, but at that time, this costume was the greatest respect for people who came to appreciate his works.

It is winter now, and Rao is Florence, which never snows. The temperature is only about ten degrees now, but Anno is sweating profusely.

Anno, who is usually calm, was a little irritated by this outfit.

It's cumbersome and ugly. If it wasn't for the respect of these powerful people, he wouldn't wear this dress in death.

But he also understands that Verrocchio is helping him. Artists rely on fame to make a living. Without money or fame, where does the energy come from to engage in art?Eating is a problem.

Anno's work is not an abstract work, but alienates the real scene and depicts a "hell" that does not exist. In essence, it is still a world dominated by people's troubles, and Jesus is not walking. In hell, the place he walks is still the world.

A group of nobles and connoisseurs gathered around Anno and his painting, wondering if they understood what Anno wanted to convey through this painting, but kept exclaiming in amazement.

"This is so holy! God bless..."

"Ahhh, is this what hell looks like?"

"Amazing new style!"

Everyone admired it, Anno also endured the heat of winter and greeted him with a smile.

Verrocchio chatted happily with a group of his artist friends.

Nobles and connoisseurs admired excellent works of art.

People in the church attract more believers, and Anno's paintings also convey a positive thought in a religious sense.

Only Anno's miserable world was born.

The chubby Perugino walked to Anno's side with an excited expression. He was the one who had the best relationship with Anno among Verrocchio's apprentices: "I really have you, Lawrence!"

"Thank you, Perugino." Anno smiled, sweat dripping down his cheeks.

Verrocchio said to the priest: "I have already told Lawrence that this work will be donated to the church for free after the exhibition."

Father Anassaro gratefully found Anno and saluted deeply: "Thank you, Mr. Lawrence."

===Chapter 160 Seventh "David" Bronze Statue===

The exhibition was a success, and Anno's "Tourism to Hell" conquered the hearts of most people.

The winged Jesus also quickly spread as an important image.

Some people even made up the story by themselves, saying that after Jesus was crucified on the cross, he received God's mercy, and the weeping angels took off their feathers and shaped Jesus with wings that could meet God.

The image of Jesus is more holy than before.

It is also a step away from people.

It has to be said that human brain supplement and self-justification ability is really powerful.

Anno took this opportunity to directly become famous, and the whole British dignitaries were discussing his "Hell Tour".

However, what Anno did after that made the entire Florence stunned.

Lawrence Anno Falgo said in public that he would donate his work to the Catholic Church free of charge, "Hell Tour", which caused an uproar in Florence.

This has made a group of nobles, collectors and connoisseurs anxious, and they are still eagerly waiting for this work to be sold.

But they didn't have much to say. After all, donating or selling it or collecting it by themselves are all Lawrence Anno's personal actions.

They can only remember the name of Lawrence, a rising star in the art world.

For Anno, the hustle and bustle of November finally came to an end. In December, it was Verrocchio's stage.

"David" has finally been completed. As a one-to-one scale bronze statue that took more than half a year to complete at the end of the year, its sophistication and artistic height once again stirred up the entire artist.

The young David was the same as the one in the blueprint. He was in high spirits, with a natural posture. His eyes seemed to be really emotional, and he looked into the distance confidently.

The long sword in his hand was extremely sharp, and at his feet was a human head, the head of the giant Goliath. There was a wound on his forehead, oozing blood.

David was also wearing clothes decorated with gold, which Verrocchio gave Anno directly to complete.

Needless to say, Anno, who is able to independently complete many gold and jewelry works of art, perfectly presents his own green leaves for the flower-like statue of "David".

The perfect delivery of the bronze statue of "David" has brought Verrocchio's reputation up another notch.

Anno stayed in Verrocchio's studio so quietly, studying and working, and part of the money he earned would be given to Uncle Fedino and Aunt Ana.
