The octagonal shape of the Church of Santa Marim of Camalin houses a variety of works of art, including frescoes by Luca Giordano and the most prestigious statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe in the entire building.

  Oliver took everyone to visit, Qu Lihua looked up, and felt that this building was indeed built with great care, reflecting the exquisite design of Western architectural designers, Qu Lihua asked Oliver: "Why does Italy still respect the Virgin Mary very much? The sculptures are all female images, not male images?"

  Oliver said: "This is similar to France, where there are sculptures of Joan of Arc, and it is the same in Italy, where the female figure is sculpted as the Virgin, the Virgin Mary, the birth mother of Jesus, the figure of the Christian faith, the Virgin as the protector of Jesus and the sacred duty of salvation." ”

  Therefore, the West attaches great importance to the Virgin Mary, and the churches and monasteries built for her are all out of the piety of believers, and they believe that the merciful Virgin Mary can save the world, bring people light and hope, and free people from pain and trouble, which is a pious faith. ”

  "Oh, I see!" Listening to Oliver's explanation, Qu Lihua understood.

  The Chapel of Santa Catalina is a square building built in the 15th century, with an octagonal dome pavilion, in which the decorative lamps placed in the attic illuminate this attic with extraordinary brilliance, Qu Lihua was deeply impressed by the round arch that is very characteristic of the West, the round arch has also been delicately decorated, and the columns below are also patterned, twisted into a twisted shape, which looks very chic.

  Qu Lihua sat on the bench, through the pillars of the circular arch, you can feel the historical precipitation here, Xia Yuxiang took everyone, while walking and watching, for everything here, the delegation felt very novel.

  The Mudgarh Monastery is the oldest building in the complex, with red and white bricks, corridors and arcades that have been carefully renovated and decorated, and several buildings form a single building that seems to complement each other.

  Qu Lihua said: "The design here is still very exquisite, and it also reflects the will of the Italian builders at that time, as well as the history and background of the time, combined with the humanities and arts of the time, it is not easy to preserve it until now!"

  "Yes, that's true!" Oliver nodded, "The Convent and Church of Santa Maria delle Grazie painted with da Vinci's "Last Supper" is included in the World Heritage List and is a cultural heritage, this oil painting, which is famous all over the world, is a famous masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci, Miss Qu and Mr. Meng have already said that in their student days, the art teachers have introduced this oil painting to the students, so let me take you to take a look!"

  "Okay!" Although when she was a student, Qu Lihua was already in the classroom, listening to the art teacher introduce this famous oil painting, but it was seen in the textbook, now in retrospect, it has been a while, Qu Lihua misses her student days very much, at that time, she was still an innocent and lovely little girl, with two braids, braids with pink flowers, her mother wore it for her, and every day she carried her schoolbag and went to school by herself.

  She is a well-behaved child, very obedient, has good grades in reading, is self-motivated, obedient and sensible, and is also welcomed by everyone in school, and the teacher asked her to be a member of the study committee.

  Before class, she always has to supervise the students to hand in the previous homework, and often have to contact the teacher, the teacher has to explain through her to speak, in the eyes of the teacher, she is well-behaved and sensible, is a good assistant to the teacher, is a good example for students.

  She was often praised in school, and the students liked her very much, and she was asked for exercises that she couldn't do, and she patiently explained them to everyone.

  When she saw the oil painting of "The Last Supper", Qu Lihua thought back to her student days, and scenes of the past appeared in front of her one after another, which made people feel a lot of emotion.

  I remember the first time I saw this oil painting in a textbook, I used to think that our textbooks were very complicated, we had to learn everything, there were many subjects, why do you want to learn those things?"

  "Some things after graduation, to work, can not be used, I only now understand, art, music, dance, each has a unique charm, although these subjects are not the main subjects, but from a young age can get the cultivation of art, develop your artistic literacy is very good, even if you do not rely on these to make a living in the future, you also have the ability to appreciate art, you can see it, you can also evaluate, know what is genuine!"

  "Yes!" Oliver nodded, "The Last Supper is difficult to grasp in terms of plot arrangement and the expression of the inner activities of the characters, and da Vinci mainly incorporated some elements of the embryonic Baroque art into the perspective techniques of painting at that time, establishing a stable composition that unfolds from top to bottom. ”

  Meng Wenjie stared intently for a while and asked Oliver, "How did da Vinci highlight the characters in this painting?"

  Oliver said: "He clearly shows the subject figures of the disciples coming together, Bartholomes with his hands on the table, James and Andre with doubt in their hands, Peter with a knife in his hand when he turns around, Judas holding the bounty in his clenched hands, John's innocent hands, Jesus' outstretched hands, Thomas pointing up and asking questions, James the Great with his arms outstretched as if in a defense, and Phillips asking himself a confession gesture." ”

  Matthew, Simon, and Tatay interrogate each other, and their innocent hands appear to be stretched out to Christ, and although they have different poses, their expressions facing the central Christ have a well-balanced movement, and the background and the distant depiction are darker, and only the group portrait of Christ and the disciples is clearly visible. ”

  "Da Vinci is very good at grasping the various expressions of the characters, showing the different images of the characters through the brush, and their movements and different expressions, handling the details very well, on the surface it is impossible to see who is the betrayer, but those who visit carefully can see the clues!"

  In the midst of gossip and discussion, this painting reveals the soul of each person's heart, and this painting can see human nature, good and evil, with a strong contrast, the great conflict between good and evil, which highlights the image of the characters, the image of the bad guy is more despicable, and Jesus is particularly calm, as if he already knew who betrayed him. ”

  "One of the characteristics of the painting "The Last Supper" is that all the characters do not have holy light, and the emphasis is on real life, ordinary people. ”

  "There was no light even on Jesus' head, and Leonardo da Vinci only used perspective to make Jesus the center, replacing the light with the light of the window, and putting Judas in the dark. ”

  When it comes to this oil painting, everyone admires it very much, and the head of Xia Yuxiang also said with emotion: "The Last Supper took Leonardo da Vinci's four years of hard work, he created a new realm of the Western Renaissance, and became one of the three masterpieces of the Renaissance heyday along with Michelangelo's "Last Judgment" and Raphael's "School of Athens". ”
