IV. Speaking.

 EX 2, p. 171 Match the words with their definitions.

 What do you know about the styles of art? Let’s read important
information about some of them.

Styles of art

Classical – (adj.) the main style of art in 18th

century Europe, based on the styles of ancient
Greece and Rome, often showing scenes and
characters from the Christian religion

Romantic – (adj.) a style of art popular in 19th

century Europe, often showing the sea or the
countryside, and Usually expressing strong
emotions
 Impressionist – (adj.) a style of art that was
developed in France in the late 19th century,
which uses colours to show the effects of light
on people, objects, and places, and does not
show small details

Modern – (adj.) the style of art in the 20th

century that is deliberately different from art
of the 18th and 19th centuries, and does not
show people, objects, or places as they appear
in real life

abstract – (adj.) a type of modern art that uses

shapes, colours, and patterns to express ideas
and feelings, rather than pictures that look like
people, objects, or places
Abstract art - It doesn’t show real people or things, but only shapes and colours.
Romanticism - Shows sensibility, heroic isolation, emphasis on women and
children.
Cubism - Things are broken up into angular shapes.
Expressionism - Exaggerated colours and shapes are used to convey feelings.
Impressionism - Gives changing effect of natural light, colours are pure, vivid and

Today I propose you to describe a picture you like most of all among those picture
I prepared for today’s lesson.

I. “Birth of Venus” by Sandro Botticelli 

Known as the “Birth of Venus”, the composition actually shows the goddess
of love and beauty arriving on land, on the island of Cyprus, born of the sea spray
and blown there by the winds, Zephyr and, perhaps, Aura. The goddess is standing
on a giant scallop shell, as pure and as perfect as a pearl. She is met by a young
woman, who is sometimes identified as one of the Graces or as the Hora of spring,
and who holds out a cloak covered in flowers. Even the roses, blown in by the
wind are a reminder of spring. The subject of the painting, which celebrates Venus
as symbol of love and beauty, was perhaps suggested by the poet Agnolo
Poliziano.
 It is highly probable that the work was commissioned by a member of the
Medici family, although there is nothing written about the painting before 1550,
when Giorgio Vasari describes it in the Medici’s Villa of Castello, owned by the
cadet branch of the Medici family since the mid-15th century. This hypothesis
would seem to be born out by the orange trees in the painting, which are
considered an emblem of the Medici dynasty, on account of the assonance between
the family name and the name of the orange tree, which at the time was ‘mala
medica’.
“Birth of Venus” was painted on canvas, a support that was widely used
throughout the 15th century for decorative works destined to noble houses.
Botticelli takes his inspiration from classical statues for Venus’ modest pose,
as she covers her nakedness with long, blond hair, which has reflections of light
from the fact that it has been gilded; even the Winds, the pair flying in one
another’s embrace, is based on an ancient work, a gem from the Hellenistic period,
owned by Lorenzo the Magnificent.

II. The “Gioconda” or Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci

The “Gioconda” or Mona Lisa, probably the most famous portrait in the

world, was painted by Leonardo da Vinci between 1503 and 1514 and is on
permanent display at the Louvre in Paris.
According to tradition, as well as the famous 16th century art historiographer
and critic, GiorgioVasari, the woman depicted is Lisa Gherardini, i.e. “Mona”
Lisa (short for “Madonna” , “Signora”), the wife of the noble Florentine merchant
Francesco del Giocondo (thus the term “Gioconda” is also used).
During his third stay in Florence, Leonardo lived in a house next door to
Palazzo Gondi (which has since been destroyed), just a few meters away from
Piazza della Signoria, which belonged to a branch of the Gherardini family.
Most of the identities of the Mona Lisa suggested over the years refer to
people within the Sforza family (Bianca Giovanna Sforza, as well as Caterina
Sforza or her mother Caterina Buti del Vacca), whilst another theory claims that
she is Pacifica Brindano, one of Giuliano dei Medici’s mistresses.
Many experts believe that the background of the painting is not invented but
represents a very precise place in Tuscany, i.e. where the river Arno passes
through the countryside of Arezzo, and receives the waters from the Chiana
Valley.
Behind the Mona Lisa’s shoulder, on the right, is a low bridge, with several
arches that is identical to the bridge at Buriano that still crosses the Arno today,
and was built in the Middle Ages. The ancient Via Cassia that connects Rome,
Chiusi, Arezzo and Florence passes over this bridge.
The “Mona Lisa” was the protagonist of an incredible theft that was
carried out on the night between 20th – 21st August 1911 by an Italian, Vincenzo
Peruggia, a former employee of the Louvre who, convinced that the painting
belonged to Italy and should not remain in France, decided to steal it.
He locked himself in a storeroom overnight and left the museum next
morning with the painting under his coat.  He placed it in a suitcase under his bed
in a Parisian boarding house and kept it for

III. Eugenia Gapchinska

 Eugenia Gapchinska was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine in 1974. She is the fifth
