Section 1364 Golden Crow

All become a beautiful decorative detail. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Coupled with the high pedestal and the intricate pattern carvings on it, it makes people feel that all this is so exquisite and extraordinary, worthy of the exemplary art of Mannerist sculpture. Medusa turned out to be a beautiful woman, and later boasted that she was prettier than Athena.
And the goddess of wisdom took away all her beauty, leaving her with only an ugly monster body. Another famous bronze statue on the right, the Rattodellasabine, is carved from a piece of cracked marble. It was carved from a piece of marble with cracks.
It depicts the plot of Roman soldiers robbing the women of the neighboring Sabine as wives. The group sculpture creates three figures huddled together to form an artistic whole, and the confrontation and balance between the forces in opposite directions are composed, which can be viewed from all angles. The sculptor skillfully intertwines the movements of the three figures.
At the same time, these movements are precisely balanced, and the continuous postures and movements lead the eye to the upper end in a spiral. Thus, the work, with its complex composition and powerful combinations, foreshadows the coming of the Baroque sculpture group. In addition, outside the gazebo, is a replica of the most famous engraving in the world, Michelangelo's David david.
This piece is said to symbolize democracy and freedom in Italy. The work depicts the moment when David prepares to fight Goliath, both physical and spiritual, and made Michelangelo famous at the time of 26. The theme was chosen because of its resemblance to the recent history of Florence, which called on the city to take the long-delayed action to break free from the Medici family's rule.
When you find that this sculpture is not only carved from a single piece of marble, but that this piece of thin marble with many defects can be easily damaged, you will think that Michelangelo's work is even more remarkable. The sculpture remained in Piazza Siniolia until 1873, due to its long exposure to the elements.
The gilding of the hair and chest of the decorative statue was detached, and the copper-leaf skirt used to calm the overly restrained Florentine burghers was also missing, leaving only the statue's distinctive body proportions, most notably the disproportionate long arms and oversized head and hands, which the sculptor intended to highlight the statue's height against the original outdoor background.
The direction David looked at was the Uffizi Gallery where Yunluo was going. Uffizi means office in Italian. It shows that this was once the office of the Grand Duke of the Medici family, and later the descendants of the family donated all the collections to the government, and this became a public art museum, and now the museum mainly exhibits paintings.
Other sculptures are on display at the Bargello Gallery. When the clouds go down, it's the peak season. So around eleven o'clock in the afternoon, there was already a long queue. The museum released a portion of visitors every 15 minutes to ease the crowds, and by the time Yunluo finally reached the ticket office, it was already an hour later.
So. To visit the art museum, if it is the peak season of 59 months, it is best to make an appointment online in advance, and the visit should be early, otherwise there will be a long queue like a cloud. The Uffizi Gallery has 46 galleries spread over three floors, and is home to about 100,000 paintings, sculptures, ceramics, and other items, making it the largest in the world.
One of the highest-level art museums, most of which are paintings and sculptures of the Italian, Flemish, German and French schools in the 13th ~ 18th centuries. The exhibits are presented in chronological order and genre, from which you can see both the trends in the development of Italian art and the art of the world in general.
In particular, the various genres of painting art. If you want to see every exhibition hall. I'm afraid one day is not enough, so it is recommended that everyone visit here must be early, and pick up the key points, the most famous of which are Botticelli's "Spring", "The Birth of Venus", and Leonardo da Vinci's "The Three Saints of the East".
Michelangelo's "Holy Family" and Titian's "Venus of Urbano". Many people say that when they come to the Uffizi, they must rent an audio guide, but Yunluo feels that this is not the case. First, the audio guide will generally take a long time to explain a work, and you will feel fresh at first, so listen patiently. Later, it is estimated that it will be hastily skipped.
Second, there are many introductions on the Internet about the works in each studio of the Uffizi Gallery, and the museum has free WiFi. You can search for explanations with free wifi, and here is a recommendation for a post by a cattle man on a poor tour, and he will go with his explanation, and the essence is all there: "If you haven't been to the Uffizi, you are not qualified to talk about the Renaissance Uffizi Art Museum."
Three of the few Leonardo da Vinci paintings in Florence: the Baptism of Christ and the Annuciazione of the Angels and the adorazione deimagi of the Three Kings, eclipsed the work of the other artists in the room.
The first work was painted by Leonardo da Vinci and Vecchio together. Leonardo da Vinci, who was not yet 20 years old at the time and was still Vecchio's apprentice, painted two kneeling angels in the lower left corner of the picture. The angel's meticulous movements, ruddy and elegant faces, and the small curls that later became da Vinci's signature made everyone stunned.
The second work is Leonardo da Vinci's first ** completed work. The last piece is his unfinished work. The Angel's Herald is a recurring theme in Renaissance art, and focuses on the angel Gabriel coming to young Maria to tell her that she is about to give birth to Jesus Christ as the Virgin.
The Botticelli studio is the most crowded place in the Uffizi Gallery. Botticelli was an important representative of the Renaissance. Loved and appreciated by the Medici family, he gradually became the leader of the Medici court painters, was protected by the Medici family, and depicted many works with pagan themes, as well as the Madonna.
Masterpieces such as the statue of the Holy Son. This studio houses his most famous works, "Spring" and "The Birth of Venus". Botticelli's Allegoria della primavera and The Birth of Venus (Lanascitadivenere), the latter being the first Renaissance portrait with a somewhat pagan flavor.
The theme of "Spring" is less certain, with some critics saying that it means spring or the four seasons, others saying that it symbolizes the triumph of Venus, that the three goddesses who nurse by her side symbolize her beauty and joy, and that the goddess of flowers symbolizes her fertility. I forgot who painted it.
It seems that Raphael has a little tidbit about the Uffizi Gallery, saying that when Napoleon went on an expedition to Italy in 1796, he saw the museum's collection, but only because it was public property, he did not dare to expropriate it. Later, only the statue of Venus of the Medici ‖ looted by the French emperor to the Louvre.
But it was sent back during the Restoration. From this incident, Yunluo and An can get a glimpse of the democracy of European countries when they meet for the first time. In the center, the one on the right is. Look out at the corner of the hallway. Great view of the banks of the Ao River, the Ponte Vecchio and the elegant cloister of the Uffizi.
It is said that in addition to those famous paintings in the art museum, what attracts the clouds is the statues that twist their bodies. One of the statues of the broken nose in the museum. The petrified man who was intoxicated by Yunluo and the stone gave up her life to blow up the bunker buddy, so twisted, carefully twisting her neck and spreading her wings, the magic skill of spreading her wings actually had the final finale in Italy.
The first floor of the Gods Rubbing Statue Museum exhibits many paintings by foreign artists. In addition, there is also a portrait of Raphael, a contrast between the portrait of the young and the old. Because of the air conditioning in the art museum, Yunluo forgot the heat outside, and when Yunluo stepped out of the museum with satisfaction. Yunluo regretted it
The heat wave is coming, and the sun is blazing. Florence is an inland city, and the sun is so bright from noon to afternoon that people look for shadows everywhere. Yunluo wandered the streets, hesitating to find a companion. Because there was no Internet and the phone couldn't get through, Yunluo decided to go to the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Hundred Flowers not far away to have a look.
The famous "three-piece" Basilica of Santa Maria del Fiore Giotto bell tower and the octagonal Baptistery of San Giovanni are in the same large square, and the three buildings form a single building that appears to be extremely harmonious. The Duomo, the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, as the cathedral of Florence, is a Gothic building with an exterior made of bright green.
The white and red marble blocks are put together into geometric shapes. That is, it is conspicuous and spectacular, and the structural design applies a variety of principles such as architecture and geometry, which has to make people admire the wisdom of the designer. The massive brick-red dome was designed and built by Filip Brunereski Brunelleschi, a craftsman who was well versed in Roman antiquity.
When building the vault, Brunelleschi did not use the "arch scaffolding" round arch wooden frame that was popular at the time, but adopted the novel "fishbone" construction method, which was built one by one from the bottom to the top. The result is a masterpiece that is said to have been built by Brunereschi without the use of drawings at all, and that all the designs were in his head.
Thus the Church of Santa Maria del Fiore has become a work that cannot be replicated, even if it is as strong as Michelangelo. Michelangelo built a similar large dome in St. Peter's Basilica, but exclaimed: "You could build a dome bigger than it." But it can't be more beautiful than it. "Wanted to get into the cathedral.
The first thing to do is to queue up, this queue is much faster, and I will go in in fifteen minutes. The front door of the church is a neo-Gothic façade added in the 19th century. At the top is a gilded statue of the Virgin in her arms, with twelve saints standing on either side. The mosaic in the center is a coloring picture of Jesus.
Group portrait of the Baptist of the Virgin and the Florentine saint. The interior of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Fiore does not have the magnificence and complexity of the external representation, but instead is simple and simple, and the dim lighting shows the mystery of faith. George Vasari's colorful but very old fresco "The Last Judgment" decorates the interior of the dome.
The goals were all completed, and it was only three o'clock when I looked at the watch. Sure enough, a person's action efficiency is high. I bought chocolate ice cream in the busiest shopping street in Florence, and had an "afternoon tea" with my friends, which was actually a supplementary lunch. Finally ate tiramisu in Italy. In the words of Mr. Venus, it is "perfect"
Pasta can also be in the café After sitting in the café for two hours, Yunluo and An met for the first time when the sun weakened, and they no longer had to worry about the flora friends who traveled with the sun peeling, and the Northeast girl who was funny but had a literary heart. The luxury street of Florence is luxurious, on the shoulders of giants, there are creative restaurant windows, and the old bridge at sunset is particularly beautiful.
Flora suggested going to Piazzale Michelangelo, and looking at the beautiful sunset, Yunluo decided to go again. In the afternoon, there were many more people in the square than in the morning, and everyone sat or leaned on, watching the sunset sprinkle on the romantic beauty of the "Fei Leng Cui" city. It's a tiring decision, even if it's just to catch the train.
Like a marathon, he walked back to the hotel in just ten minutes after walking the road that would have taken twenty minutes, but Yunluo did not regret it, because Yunluo saw the most amazing beauty. Florence, and its warm and simple people, is something that Yunluo will never forget.
A city in water that will be submerged in a hundred years. As Italy's maritime powerhouse a hundred years ago, Venice is an essential stop on any trip to Italy. Yunluo and An first met and arrived in the city late at night as always. Because the train was delayed, it was not until after twelve o'clock in the night that the train arrived at the train station in Venice.
Because Venice is an island. Therefore, the Italian government specially built a bridge across the sea, and it was the first time that Yunluo crossed the sea by train. In order to prevent Florence from finding the owner of the hotel, this time Yunluo learned to be obedient, and as early as Florence, he talked to the owner of the Venetian B&B on the phone and set the arrival time.
The train was delayed. Yunluo and An Chuyu also called the master and asked him to wait for Yunluo and An Chuyu. Fortunately, the owner of this house is still very responsible, Yunluo and An Chu met so late, he did not say that he would not wait for Yunluo and An to meet for the first time, and he personally went to the train station to pick up Yunluo and An Chuyu. Yunluo and An didn't know this for the first time.
Silly, I walked out of the train station, opened the map, and looked for a hotel. Venice has many waterways, and in order to facilitate the passage of boats, the bridges are generally arched. This increased the inconvenience of Yunluo and An Chu's encounter with these passengers carrying suitcases, but fortunately, Yunluo and An Chu's location was very close to the train station. You don't have to walk a lot.
But another problem comes, the alleys on the land of Venice are all twisted and twisted, especially in the middle of the night, as if you want to walk through a maze. Just when Yunluo and An Chuyu were lost on the road, the shopkeeper who had been following Yunluo and An Chuyu for a long time stepped forward to greet Yunluo and An Chuyu and identified their identities.
It turned out that he was not sure whether Yunluo and An Chuyu were tourists in his house, so he followed Yunluo and An Chuyu first, and saw that it was the direction of his house, so he determined that Yunluo and An Chuyu. Yunluo and An met these lost lambs for the first time, and finally had a guiding light, and soon arrived at "home".
Because Yunluo and An met a lot of people for the first time. So it's another suite, like home. After a simple wash, I can finally fall asleep. Early the next morning, Yunluo's excitement made Yunluo unable to sleep. The first one got up. Everyone was not in a hurry and washed up step by step. At half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Yunluo and An set off for the first time.
Because it was almost lunch time, Yunluo and An Chuyu decided to taste the local specialty "cuttlefish noodles" first, found a small restaurant not far from the train station, ordered a pizza, and added a cuttlefish noodles, don't look at the black cuttlefish noodles. The appearance is not very good, but even Yunluo, a person who doesn't like to eat seafood, thinks it is still delicious.
After a full meal, I saw an experience store in Menglong, and was attracted by the two ice creams in the window, and decided to go in and have a look. I have long heard that Menglong is the most luxurious ice cream, with a rich milky aroma. The shop also offers freshly made ice cream by hand. Freshly made, some expensive, remember it's seven euros. After a refreshing refreshment, the journey begins.
Yunluo and An's plan for the first time was to go to the main island for a swim first, then go to the color island, and finally return to the main island to sit on a gondola to watch the sunset. Public transport in Venice is mainly by water bus, but it is not cost-effective to buy a ticket, it is recommended to buy a 24-hour pass, 19 euros. Yunluo and An first met by boat at the beginning, although the end point was also St. Mark's Square.
However, it is indeed a relatively long route, and comrades who are in a hurry must be optimistic about the route of the water bus. However, there are two sides to everything, although the road is far away, Yunluo and An first met and saw the open sea. Half an hour later, arrive at St. Mark's Square, the most prosperous part of the main island of Venice.
Before entering the square, you will see a lot of performers, jugglers, so lively in Venice, not to appreciate the long history, not to see the humanities and arts, as long as you walk in the city, visit the small shops, feel the special and emotional atmosphere of the town, the trip has been completed. With this thought, the pace of Yunluo and An's first encounter with the tour slowed down.
Although there are a lot of tourists, looking at the dazzling shops and the deep rivers, the mood is naturally good. In fact, when they arrived at St. Mark's Square, Yunluo and An met for the first time but did not stay too long, because there were too many people. St. Mark's Square is the old and new administrative residence building by St. Mark's Basilica of the Ducal Palace.
The Napoleonic wing, the quadrangular bell tower of St. Mark's Basilica and the Library of San Marco, which connects the two buildings, and the rectangular square enclosed by the Grand Canal in Venice, is about 170 meters long, 80 meters wide on the east side, and 55 meters wide on the west side. V2: The heart of Venice, located in front of St. Mark's Basilica, is a must-see for every tourist.
The church is very attractive at that time, because some like Thai architecture, Haha St. Mark's Basilica was built in 829 and rebuilt in 1043~1071, it was the largest church in medieval Europe, and it is a classic of Venetian architectural art. It is said that it was named after St. Mark, a disciple of Jesus, who was buried. To be continued.
