Accompany Da Vinci's Super God Day

Meat is of course to be bought, but it is impossible to go now.

It was the first time for Da Vinci to see such a blue crystal. Seeing Heidi carefully scoop out those crystals, he reached out to take one to see its color.

"Don't touch it—it's poisonous!"

Heidi subconsciously slapped his hand away, and said seriously: "Sir, of course you can use this paint for painting—but you'd better not touch it with your hands at any time, let alone sniff it."

Inhalation of a certain dose of copper sulfate can cause vomiting, and too much exposure can even cause more serious poisoning.

She originally wanted to make a glove or a mask, but she couldn't find a suitable material at home for the time being, so she decided to make some small samples first.

"We still need to find some stabilizers... as long as we add it, it will never change color." She murmured subconsciously: "What do you use, egg white?"

"I'm going to get some eggs back?" Da Vinci was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something: "Add some oil?"

"It's up to you, sir."

These days, Heidi stayed with Da Vinci in the side church of the Lord's Palace for a long time, and Heidi saw many new things.

Many of the explanations she had heard in the art museum were reproduced in a real and direct way. Even if she had some impressions long ago, it would still be a bit inconceivable to see them again now.

Western modern oil painting is a product of oil, resin and various materials mixed together. When painting, it should be painted from deep to light. After two or three weeks after the painting is finished, a layer of turpentine can be added. The color is bright and full of infection. force.

But in the Renaissance era, everything was just getting started.

Chemistry sprouted quietly in the hands of alchemists, and painters did not know the magic of resin, let alone many modern pigments synthesized by organic chemistry.

What they use is called tempera paint.

Egg Tempera.

The only thing that can be used to fix the color at the moment is eggs.

So every time Heidi went to work with Da Vinci, she not only had to help him get some black bread, but also brought some eggs.

Egg white has weak color fixing ability, so it is more used to outline fair skin after toning.

Egg yolk has a strong color-fixing ability, and it will blur the gorgeous and solemn background.

The whole egg is broken into a bowl, the egg embryo needs to be removed, the paint is mixed, and turpentine or olive oil is added. The whole process is like a cook making soup paste.

Heidi didn't know much about this ratio, so she leaned over the table and watched Mr. Da Vinci's work.

The sky blue crystals were carefully screened out, mixed with egg liquid and oil, and the first round of mixing began.

She has a pair of clear light blue eyes, long eyelashes drooping slightly like magpie feathers, long black hair slightly curly, and her whole person's temperament is also mixed with oriental classical.

Da Vinci was lowering his head to make paint, and accidentally glanced at her next to him. He was silent for a few seconds, and did not praise him against his will.

Heidi didn't know that he was looking at herself, she just lay down and watched him tinkering for a while, then got up to collect all the blue crystals that had precipitated in the crucible, picked a small clay pot and sealed it.

It can be stored for a long time as long as it is exposed to the sun, which is a good thing.

Tempera paint is easy to dry and should be used as soon as possible after preparation, even if only for color testing.

Due to the characteristics of the paint, Da Vinci hastily brought the paint over and drew a few strokes temporarily.

The oil is fully wrapped on the crumbs, forming an invisible oil film, which firmly locks the moisture and reduces the volatility of this chemical.

He took the pen to paint, just scribbled a draft on a plastered board, and then continued to color.

The bright and distant colors like the Mediterranean, like the waves blown by the east wind, leaped into the painting one after another.

From light to dark, first light and then dark, the pig bristle brush quickly draws cross-shaped strokes, allowing the paint to form a texture evenly.

Heidi was standing by the side with a citrus juice, watching the faint half of the ocean bloom.

"Bring hot water."

Da Vinci washed the brush, impromptuly took other paints, and began to paint the crowd in the distance.

It was actually intended to draw the scene when Moses parted the Red Sea.

The army of the Egyptians pursued the people of Israel, but the Lord was merciful and forgiving.

"—I would like to remind you that our ancestors were all under the pillar of cloud, walked through the sea, were baptized in the cloud and in the sea, and belonged to Moses."

Heidi suddenly thought of this sentence in the Old Testament.

She lowered her eyes and watched the picture being continuously filled, and seeing how he painted the story of her ancestors thousands of years ago, she felt quite complicated in her heart.

The Old Testament of the Bible is originally the story of the Jews and the history of the founding of Israel.

Judaism gave birth to Christ and the Orthodox Church, and countless factions continued to develop intertwined in the subsequent history.

From the perspective of Christianity, Judas, one of the twelve disciples of Jesus, was the one who crucified Jesus on the cross.

She stared at the parting Red Sea, looked at the countless fugitives being chased on the paintbrush, and Moses who was walking fast with his staff, and even her breathing was still.

In her previous life, Heidi had been hiding in the United States for a long time since the beginning of World War II.

She has the blood of the Hebrews, and once she returns to Austria, she will most likely fall into the hands of the Nazis, and in the end, there may be no bones left.

Life experience and family have become unspeakable secrets after all.

She gave birth to a pair of children in her previous life. Even though she never knew about Passover and Hanukkah around her, many memories of living with her parents when she was young were deliberately forgotten, as if they really didn't exist.

As the paint was dried by the night wind, the originally light sea water seemed to be infused with soul, and the color became deep and layered, even glowing like waves under the candlelight.

The ripples of the moon are spread like spider webs among the cliff-like waves. People witnessed the miracles of Jehovah and Moses, and hurried forward in the depths of the strait.

Heidi even forgot how long she stood behind him, looking at the painting and quietly thinking about the past.

In this life, I am afraid that everything related to Judaism is also an unspeakable taboo.

Just live.

Nothing is more important than being alive.

Leonardo da Vinci procrastinated, but now he painted with this pot of tempera paint to his heart's content.

He has never used this paint so easily.

Ultramarine is as expensive as gold, and even a little powder can only paint some corners of the sky.

He is not good at the human body, so tonight he downplayed the size of all living beings, painted the high-hanging waves with a wider stroke, and did not forget to add a holy light-like sunset at the end of the long road.

Heidi withdrew her thoughts, sat beside him and helped him wash the brush with hot water, and also showed a gratified smile.

The Renaissance was a time of enlightenment for human nature.

Medieval paintings originally described the stories of gods.

However, the wave of the Renaissance has caused countless ignorant hearts to yearn for true humanity and feel the simplest needs of people themselves.

She heard from the citizens of Florence that the Medici family had spent a lot of money and asked Mr. Kodan to paint many large murals, so that he could add the appearances of their family members to the paintings of the gods.

Human beings should be born with value and dignity, not just ants who worship God.

This world looks like there is no wind or rain, and it is ordinary day after day.

But even from this painting, it can be seen that some inherent cognitions have begun to disintegrate and change.

"Are you still here?" Da Vinci came back to his senses and said in surprise: "It's already late at night, why don't you go back and rest first?"

"It's okay, I'll stay with you." Heidi showed a decent expression, got up and said: "Dinner has been heated twice and you are not free, can you use some now?"

"Just eat some dry bread." Da Vinci frowned, looked at the oil painting and said, "After another two hours of painting, we can call it a day."

He grabbed a squeegee, made the texture of the waves a little clearer, and started working on the skyline again.

Heidi brought over the black bread and asked curiously, "Where do you plan to hang this painting?"

"Where is it hung?" Da Vinci ate something hastily, took a sip of wine and said, "Of course it's sold at a good price."

...that's right too.

"I'll go buy some beef tomorrow and come back. I just went to the pharmacy to talk to the boss about the stone." Da Vinci said halfway, seeing that she was still looking at the painting, he glanced at it and said, "It's beautiful. Is it?"

"The painting is very good," Heidi suddenly remembered something, and added: "The painting is bigger than Mr. Botticelli's."

Someone raised his eyebrows, obviously enjoying it.

"I always feel," da Vinci wiped off the bread crumbs, looked at the sunset on the painting and said, "the earth is not the center of the universe."

The maid was about to help him take away the dinner, and her eyebrows twitched.

"what did you say?"

"Is it rebellious?" He looked at the painting and said, "I don't think the sun is revolving around the earth."

Heidi thought she had heard it wrong, looked at him and said, "How did you get this?"

"I've been thinking, is the sky bigger, or the earth is bigger—" He said with a serious look: "Obviously the sky is bigger, but day and night rotate every day. Could it be that the sky is rotating around the earth?"

This is because the earth is rotating.

But if you go on talking, if other people hear it, you may be burned to death as a heretic.

"It's best not to talk nonsense," she whispered, "after all, there is no evidence."

Hearing this dissuasion, Da Vinci showed a slightly disappointed expression, but still wanted to continue talking.

"I often think, why do things fall to the ground when you let go of your hands? Why doesn't the moon shine during the day?" He simply turned out a volume of his manuscripts, thinking: "If these things can be figured out , maybe all of them can be cracked slowly.”

Heidi almost thought that he was also a traveler across time and space, so she just tapped on the wooden board with the Red Sea painting: "You should fill in the painting as soon as possible, and the tempera paint will be done later."

"Huh? Yes, I almost forgot again..."

Heidi finished cleaning the kitchen and decided to go back to her room to rest.

As usual, she checked whether the room had been touched, and then went to look at the glass dish in the corner.

On the small orange peel, a large piece of white and green mildew has spread.

The author has something to say: Leonardo Da Vinci: The theory of the center of the earth seems to be wrong...Let me think again

Heidi (covering hands): Shut up and stop thinking about it! !

He is knowledgeable and versatile, and is an inventor, medical scientist, biologist, geographer, musician, great philosopher, poet, construction engineer and military engineer.

All of his scientific research results are preserved in his manuscripts, with about 15000 pages. Einstein believed that if Da Vinci's scientific research results were published at that time, technology could advance half a century.

Da Vinci firmly believed in science, he was disgusted with religion, and attacked those in power in the Catholic Church as "a person who sells deceit and lies".He said: "There is only one truth, and it is not in religion, but in science." Inventions and creations open up new paths.

astronomical:

Da Vinci held a negative view on the traditional "Earth Center Theory".He believed that the earth is not the center of the solar system, let alone the center of the universe, but just a planet revolving around the sun, and the sun itself does not move.

Da Vinci also believed that the moon does not emit light by itself, it just reflects the light of the sun.His views were put forward earlier than Copernicus' "heliocentric theory". Even at that time, Da Vinci might have fantasized about using solar energy.
