colloseum

Colloseum is build actually for the figting of gladiators  from Rom. The place also as a teater.Tod's, the Italian luxury shoe group, which has designed many a gladiator sandal in its time, has announced a new project to fund the cost of the restoration of Rome's historic Colosseum, at a cost of €25 million. The project, which will be carried out in eight stages, has been finalised by the Italian ministry of Culture, and Mr Diego Della Valle, the president of Tod's Group, widely known as Italy's "shoe king".

The Colosseum is Italy's most famous tourist attraction, the largest amphitheatre ever built in the Roman Empire and is considered one of its greatest works of engineering and architecture. Construction began in 72AD and was completed in 80AD.
It could seat 50,000 spectators and was used for gladiatorial contests, mock sea-battles, executions, animal hunts, and dramas based on classical mythology.
Although it remains partially ruined because of repeated damage from devastating earthquakes and stone-robbers, it is an iconic symbol of Imperial Rome at its height, and still has close connections with the Roman Catholic Church. On Good Friday, the pope leads a torchlit "Way of the Cross" procession that starts in the area around the Colosseum. There is now a museum dedicated to Eros on the site, and last summer, a network of subterranean passageways, once used to transport wild animals and gladiators to the area, was opened to the public.
Although the Colosseum may be most easily recognisable to many through Ridley Scott's film swords-and-sandals blockbuster, 'Gladiator', starring Russell Crowe (its glory was re-created by computer-generated imagery), the amphitheatre has played multiple roles in popular culture. Rock band Nickelback filmed its 2009 music video 'Gotta Be Somebody' there, and a 2004 America's Next Top Model episode was shot there. The Colosseum has also featured in films as diverse as 'Roman Holiday' (1953), 'Way of the Dragon' (1972), and 'Jumper' (2004), as well as in the video game, 'Mario Kart: Double Dash! ' and last year's Ubisoft game, 'Assassin's Creed Brotherhood'.
The Colosseum is also depicted on the Italian version of the five-cent euro coin. I Hope one day I can go there.

Mona Lisa



Mona Lisa is one of my favourite, She is a beautiful person. The Mona Lisa is 16th century oil painting created by the renowned Leonardo da Vinci. The work of art depicts an enigmatic woman gazing at the viewer, and it is said that if you move across the room while looking into her eyes, they’ll follow you. It is definitely one of the most popular paintings worldwide and has been the center of many artistic, religious, and theoretical debates. The French government currently owns the Mona Lisa and it is featured at the Musee du Louvre in Paris. The painting can also be referred to as La Gioconda or La Joconde. 



The name of the painting stems from the name of the woman in the portrait, Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a wealthy businessman in Florence, Italy named Francesco del Giocondo. Mona means ‘my lady’ or ‘madam’ in modern Italian, so the title is simply Madam Lisa. Art historians agree that Leonardo da Vinci likely began painting the Mona Lisa in 1503, and completed it within 4 years.Leonardo actually is a good painter. his Mona Lisa painting makes every person in the world want to know about Mona. In 1516 the King of France, King Francois, bought the painting and it is thought that after Leonardo’s death the painting was cut down. Some speculators think that the original had columns on both sides of the lady, whereas other art critics believe that the painting was never cut down in size. It has been suggested that there were 2 versions of the Mona Lisa painting, but many historians reject the second version. The duplicate copy can be found at the Dulwich Picture Gallery. After the French revolution the painting was moved to the Louvre, and Napoleon had it placed in his bedroom for a short time before it was returned to the Louvre. The popularity of the Mona Lisa increased in the mid 19th century because of the Symbolist movement. The painting was thought to encompass a sort of feminine mystique.


In 1911 the Mona Lisa was stolen from the Louvre. The art thief hid in a broom closet until the museum closed, stole the painting, hid it under his jacket and walked out the front door. Eduardo de Valfierno was the mastermind behind the theft and has planned to make copies of the original and sell them as the real thing. Eventually, in 1913, he was caught when trying to sell the original to a Florence art dealer. The Mona Lisa is most famous for her facial expression, her enigmatic smile and da Vinci’s mastering of tone and color in the painting. There is much mythology and interpretations relating to the painting that mystify the world. Many art critics and art history buffs suggest that the Mona Lisa is actually a portrait of da Vinci himself in feminine form. In addition, most viewers see the meaning behind Mona Lisa’s smile very differently.
I hope one day, i can see Mona Lisa potrait
