Louis Comfort Tiffany vitraaž Feeding Flamingoes

Sissejuhatus Selles referaadis tutvustan vitraazi Feeding Flamingoes, mis on loodud muuseumite ja kollektsionääride poolt väärtustatud kunstniku Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848­1933) poolt. Alustan ülevaatega juugendstiilist, mis on nimetatud vitraazi valmimise perioodiks. Sellele järgnevalt toon lugejani informatsiooni vitraazi autorist Louis Comfort Tiffanist endast. Vitraazi tutvustamisel lähtun enamjaolt Hugh F. McKean´i (1908-1995) raamatus The ,,Lost" Treasures of Louis Comfort Tiffany kirjeldatust. Raamatu autoriks on kunstnik, kes oli vananeva Louis Comfort Tiffany isiklik tuttav ning on viibinud tänaseks tules hävinud Tiffany kodus, Laurelton Hall´is. Juugend Alates aastatest 1880 kuni I maailmasõjani, olid Lääne-Euroopa ja Ameerika Art Nouveau (,,New Art", e.k ,,Uus kunst") arengu tunnistajaks. Art Nouveau e. juugend on inspireeritud looduse orgaanilistest vormidest

Tom Sawyer raamatu kokkuvõte Mark Twain lühikirjeldus

An imaginative and mischievous boy named Tom Sawyer lives with his Aunt Polly and his half-brother, Sid, in the Mississippi River town of St. Petersburg, Missouri. After playing hooky from school on Friday and dirtying his clothes in a fight, Tom is made to whitewash the fence as punishment on Saturday. At first, Tom is disappointed by having to forfeit his day off. However, he soon cleverly persuades his friends to trade him small treasures for the privilege of doing his work. He trades these treasures for tickets given out in Sunday school for memorizing Bible verses and uses the tickets to claim a Bible as a prize. He loses much of his glory, however, when, in response to a question to show off his knowledge, he incorrectly answers that the first two disciples were David and Goliath. Tom falls in love with Becky Thatcher, a new girl in town, and persuades her to get “engaged” to him. Their romance collapses when she learns that Tom

Ta abiellus Hesseni suurvürsti Ludwigi tütre Victoria Alix Helena Louisa Beatrice ´iga, kellega neil oli viis last, neli tütart ning üks poeg. Nikolaid on iseloomustatud väga halva, kuigi püüdlikku keisrina, kes seeeest olnud aga eeskujulik kojamees.

Jaanuaril 1905 aastal liikus Peterburis suur rahvamass preester Grigori Gaponi juhtimisel Talvepalee poole, et anda keisrile üle palvekiri.

Art Museum of Estonia

Nicholas' Church lost its defensive function and became a typical medieval parish church. In the 15th century large-scale reconstructions, in the cause of which the choir and the three- aisled main body got their present appearance, were undertaken. The Baroque spire with airy galleries was raised higher stage by stage through several centuries. During the Soviet air-raid on March 9, 1944 the St. Nicholas' Church and the buildings surrounding it were severely damaged. The most precious art treasures survived merely thanks to their timely evacuation from the church. Hence, besides Baroque epitaphs and other masterworks of carving, a remarkable collection of Renaissance and Baroque chandeliers, as well as the 14-17th century tombstones covering the floor of the Chapel of St Matthew (later St Anthony), but also such invaluable rarities from the 15­16th centuries as the high altar, the initial fragment of the famous painting Danse Macabre and the altar of St Anthony survived.

Skulptuur “Kristallmets”

KRISTALLMETS Skulptuur “Kristallmets” kujutab puidust modelleeritud kristalle, mille tipud on värviliseks maalitud. Enamasti peetakse ühe maa väärtuslikeks varadeks kulda, hõbedat või teemante. Kahjuks Eesti riigis neid maapõues ei leidu, kuid meil on siiski midagi, mida peaksime enam väärtustama ja millele rohkem tähelepanu pöörama - nimelt puit. Mets katab kuni 55% meie riigi territooriumist, täna veel… See number võib aga kiirelt kahanema hakata, kui me targasti oma metsi ei majanda. Korralik mets kasvab keskmiselt 70 aastat. Noored, kes täna oma talu maadele metsa istutavad, seal sirgunud palkidest endale tõenäoliselt maja ei ehita, pigem nende lapsed või lapselapsed. Unistame Eestist, kus ka meie laste lapsed teaksid, mis on mets ja saaksid seal igal ajal jalutada, marju korjata või talvel suusatamas käia. Soovisime mitte raisata seda, mille hoidmisele tähelepanu tahame juhtida. Seepärast kasutasime oma töös meie kodukandi puidut...

"River of Death" Alistair Maclean

Spaatz and von Manteuffel will take the crew prisoners. Hamilton and others managed to escape and Spaatz and Manteuffle were leaving too. The suddenly the Military came and arrested the criminals. Hamilton showed his mothers and fathers grave to Manteuffel. Manteuffel said that he was going to be a dead man. So military was going to take manteuffel away but he managed to get free and jumped off the cliff. Hamilton repeated his word about being a dead man. The crew found big amount of treasures. The Lost city really existed. My opinion It was a great book. At first book seemed boring but like author said about the book, that it is full of suprises and it was true. The end was quite interesting. It was a bit hard to read, because some pages consist of lots of new word. But if the harder word were translated, then it was easy to follow.

and baths, which blend seamlessly with elegant 18th-century architecture. Bath is built on the site of England's only natural hot springs. It was the Romans who first tapped into this unique source and constructed a network of luxurious baths. But it's not only the hot baths that make Bath such an incredible place. It's the whole city that's a designated World Heritage Site, not just its Roman antiquities. Bath has some of the finest architectural and historic treasures in Europe. Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape Designated a World Heritage Site in 2006. The Cornwall and West Devon World Heritage Site areas are spread across 12 districts of Cornwall and West Devon, and there are many walks and visitor attractions to experience in each of them. By example Gwennap Pit, an open-air amphitheatre which may have originated from a hollow created by sunken mine workings; and King Edward Mine, the oldest complete mine site in Cornwall.

Clarification

Why not? Because traditions are now under attack from mass production and mass marketing. 9.4 Clarification / Reiteration through reference to subject They are usually on the same side in war-time, yet they rarely speak well of one another on a personal level. Are we talking about a struggle for superiority? I'm talking about national institutions, centres of culture which represent the best of Britain's historical and artistic treasures. That isn't the point. I'm talking about soft drinks, and few Spanish bars will serve you with "horchata", their own traditional soft drink. I'm talking about desktop PCs Are you saying that foreign-based multi-nationals decide who is going to be British Prime Minister. Well you might as well argue that the government should subsidize all shops. I'm saying that it's the British tax-payer who pays the bill.

It was begun in the 13th century, completed in the 14th and constantly improved and strengthened thereafter. The walls were 2.5 metres thick on average, over 2 km long, and their height reached 15-16 metres. The wall was fortified by 27 towers, 18 of which have survived.

It was presumably a wooden building located at the site of the present cathedral. However, a serious conflict with the Order of the Brothers of the Sword broke out soon as the latter wanted to gain control of the entire Estonia. The order succeeded in subordinating Tallinn and the whole of North Estonia to its rule in 1227. The monks of the Dominican Order began the construction of a stone church in Toompea in 1229.

The East India Company was founded to trade with the East Indies (Indonesia); competing with the Dutch and later with the French it soon began to operate in India, Persia and even in Japan. The Africa Company began selling slaves to the Spanish in America. And several other companies. Elizabeth followed two policies. She encouraged English sailors to attack and destroy Spanish ships bringing treasures back from America, and the treasure was shared with the queen. She also encouraged English traders to settle abroad and to create colonies. This second policy led directly to Britain’s colonial empire of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Notes 1.

Budismist üldiselt, budismi sümbolid

BUDISM ÜLDISELT Budism sai alguse ühest India printsist, kelle nimi oli Siddhartha Gautama ja elas umbes 2500 aastat tagasi. Palju inimesi hakkas teda järgima juba tema eluajal. Siddhartha jutlustas kaasinimeste aitamisest sõltumata nende rikkusest ja sõja ning klasside vastu. Ta ei toetunud imedele, jumalatele ega millelegi ebatavalisele. Selle asemel õpetas ta Kuldne Buddha Tais inimesi jälgima oma tegusid ja nende tagajärgi. Ta näitas neile, et kui nad mõistlikult ja hästi toimivad, elavad nad õnnelikku elu. Mehi ja naisi, kes on asunud Siddhartha õpetust järgima, kutsutakse budistideks. Budism sai alguse praegustel Nepaali Buddha on tiitel ­ see tähendab aladel.

The Bayeux tapestry is embroidered in wool yarn using two differeent methods of stitching. The main yarn colours are terracotta, blue-green, dull gold, olive green, and blue. Later repairs are worked in light yellow, orange, and light greens. *The Domesday Book ­ It is one of Medieval England's greatest treasures. The Domesday Book is closely linked with William the Conqueror's attempt to dominate Medieval England. That book was to give William huge authority in England. William I ordered that a book be made containing information on who owned what throughout the country. This book would also tell him who owed him what in tax and because the information was on record, nobody could argue against a tax demand. William ordered the survey of England to take place about

THE CAPITALIST NIGER

THE CAPITALIST NIGER Chika Onyeani ………………………Every African must internalise this book - period….DAA INTRODUCTION In October 1960, Nigeria received its independence from Britain. By then, Ghana the former Gold Coast had been independent for three years under the great Osagyefo Kwame Nkumah. It was a time for celebrating Africa’s coming of age, as more and more African countries received their independence either from Britain or France. It was especially a poignant time for Africa, as then British Prime Minister Harold McMillan articulated his now famous “winds of change” sweeping Africa. We had high hopes for Africa, for the Black race, that the insidious imposition of foreign rule on us, the looting of Africa’s natural resources by our colonial masters accorded us would be things of history. That is more than forty years ago. Unfortunately, the promise of independence has not been fulfilled. Today, Africa has become more desolate; th...
