The history of portrait
A In that year one Italian workman,
Peruggio, was working as a director in the Louvre. He was also struck by the beauty of the
portrait and often came to look at it. One day he heard a professor say: “ It
was Napoleon who brought this picture to France
as a military trophy from Italy .
Peruggio was struck by this idea and
decided to take the picture and return it to his motherland. At dinner-time he
cut the picture out of its frame, rolled it up and hid it under his overalls.
In this way he carried it out of the museum. When he got home he hid it behind
a cupboard where it lay in the dust for almost 2 years. It was only in
1913 that he brought the painting to Italy . But the French Government would not agree to hand the
picture over to the its rightful owner, the Italian
people. There followed a diplomatic conflict and as a result the painting was
returned to Paris .
It is now again in the Louvre, where two watchmen guard it day and night.
B In the year 1504, Mona Lisa Gioconda, one
of the loveliest and influential women
in Florence
once happened to see a miniature painted by Leonardo da Vinci. Mona Lisa was
struck by the beauty of the painting. So she decided to have a portrait of
herself painted by Leonardo. As a result, a few weeks later Leonardo began his
famous portrait of the smiling Mona Lisa. It took him 3 years to paint this
great masterpiece of art. Leonardo da Vinci was an Italian, but his famous
masterpiece is not in the possession of the Italian people. This is what
happened to it.
C Leonardo da Vinci was a great Italian
artist and talented scientist. He lived and created his masterpieces in the
period of the Renaissance. He left us several beautiful paintings as well as
his famous notebook with numerous
drawings and technical ideas. His works in the field of optics, mechanics and
mathematics were truly remarkable and are of great interest to us even now.
Leonardo da Vinci was one of the giants of creation not only in the history of
art, but also in the history of science. One of his best known pictures is the
portrait of Gioconda. The history of
this portrait is of great interest.
D
Almost three hundred years after it was finished, in 1796, Napoleon’s
army occupied Milan . Besides reparations Napoleon
demanded many valuable works of art. Among them was Leonardo’s Mona Lisa. Napoleon took the picture to France .
For over a hundred years it was kept in the Louvre museum, in Paris . We find it there in 1911. Many people
from various countries stand for hours
before Leonardo’s masterpiece. The colours on Gioconda’s face are so fresh and her smile so lovely. The
impression is that the artist has just finished
the portrait.

T.:
We live in the time of high
technologies and great scientific achievements and discoveries. But can
our society go on along the road of progress and remain valuable without the
development of some cultural aspects? I’m sure you realize it quiet well. Of
course, no! So let’s try to find out what do we mean when we speak about such
thing as “cultural development”.
Pupils brainstorm their ideas
and come to the conclusion that “ cultural development” includes the following
things:
- education
- upbringing
- social surroundings
- traditions
- the way we treat other
people
- the way we work and study
- the way we dress and
speak
- our behavior at home and
public places

HOT
TICKETS
The “West End” is London ’s the theatreland – home to over forty
theatres. London ’s
plays, shows and operas attract around 11 million visitors per year and, with
tickets costing around ₤30 each, they bring a lot of income into the capital.
The biggest West End attractions are always
musicals. Cats ran for 21 years, and Les Misrables is currently celebrating
its 18th year in the West End . Here
are some of the hottest tickets in town today.
My
Fair Lady is based on G.B.Shaw’s play Pygmalion
and tells the story of Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower seller chosen from the
streets by a professor of linguistics and transformed into a lady. This current
production opened in 2001 starring Martine McCutcheon from the soap East
Enders. It features well-known songs such as “I am getting married in the
morning” and “On the street where you live”.
Bombay
Dreams is based in the Indian film industry and features an all-Asian cast.
The story centers around Akaash, a poor boy played by Raza Jaffrey, who becomes
a film star and falls in love with the daughter of one of Bombay ’s greatest film directors. The show
features modern Indian pop music, such as “Shakalaka baby”, and dazzling
costumes and choreography. It opened in 2002 and quickly became one of the most
popular shows in London .
We
Will Rock You opened in 2002. This musical, with a script by comedian Ben
Elton, takes place in the future, when rock music is illegal. The story is
based on famous songs by Queen such as “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “I Want to Break
Free”, the set resembles a rock concert and there are plenty of special
effects. And Tony Vincent, who plays the hero Galileo Figaro, sounds very like
Queen’s lead singer, Freddie Mercury.

– a working-class person from the East End of London;
