The diary of Europe 12-foluolun Isaac trip (part 2)

August 19th, 2008 sunny

Long heard that visiting the Uffizi Gallery are queued.

So we got up early in the morning, ready to travel. Mainly water and dry food. Although European cities from time to time, you can see there are for direct water faucet, but I found that European water Cook and eat better, because the water cooked will precipitate many white substance, filtered out later, boiling water taste evident. My daughter said, no wonder she just came out hair, can and often drink unboiled water.

Uffizi Museum, near the Cathedral in flowers.

Out of the hotel door, the door today cooked books to the Church. On the way to see the streetscape, and looked again last night Misty. The housing is made of large stone masonry constructed, seemed old and dignified. At a distance, there is a belt of cylindrical iron hoop embedded in stone wall, rusty, guess a half-day, it is estimated that the ancient plug candles (street lamps) and plug horse with the (wagon ancient more?). The sidewalk is very narrow, and only contains a person walking. However, pedestrians are very conscious of walking on the sidewalk. Fortunately, very few pedestrians.

No more will, to the Town Hall Square.

The way it saw many statues stand. Let the person suddenly feel what is the cradle of the Renaissance! intermediate round Fountain (?) above all large and small statues, a square building in the corner stood two statue, a statue of a naked male youth for throwing, a statue of two old station a squat. Right hand a seat by the three arched pillars of high stage like a gallery housing, there is a station full of various images, statues of various postures.

Frankly admit that my art is a layman.

But fortunately there is a camera in his hand. A a accept according to the order. Then look at a lot of books, just know that the founder of architecture (Town Hall) on the corner of two statue, the "naked men" (in my photo label is call him) is famous for Michelangelo's "David" works. Of course, here is a copy (original work is now the City Art Institute).

Museum on the square behind the two tall building to intermediate clip into a narrow corridor-Plaza, teams have discharged a long, extended to the bottom of the building across the street.

Walking across the narrow square, discharged into the team, glanced, a big river, a veranda. My daughter told me to the river's name, bad memory, long forgotten. In the finishing of the journal, with a reference book on hand, checked, originally called the River Arno River.

Queued estimates but also for a longer period of time, I've switched to visit the nearby bridge of.

Connection of art and the veranda on the river side, there is a promenade, pillars and columns formed between the facade and inside a door is arched, gives a very visual. Walking along the promenade to the veranda (a bit of a mouthful), deck full of shops, this point has not yet opened.

Museum entrance to many of today's artists to paint the scene.

Also on display and sell their works. Layman, street artists, painting and drawing master is no different.

Queued fast turn to us, it was to inform, that there will not be able to take photographs, nor can they bring water into it.

No way, away from the camera, the possession of the bag. Cook in boiling water in the morning, reluctant to fall, but cool drink. Museum tickets 10 euro a person.

It is said that Uffizi Museum exhibits the works of the Renaissance.

These collections are mostly from European famous big family – meidiqi family saved. This family of more than 300 years of poetries, also became a part of the history of medieval Europe. European medieval Renaissance, largely because of the rulers of support, especially the history of the Pope. The reason is of course support the complex. Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael "Renaissance three", also benefited from this era.

Going into the Museum, a sculpture Gallery appear before our eyes.

I have a friend who studied sculpture in the winter, cultural revolution later Suzhou lingyan Hill hold rental homes clay sculpture exhibition was taken from him and his classmates. This sight, couldn't clockwork SMS to him. Letter said, good envy you get to enjoy it.

Foreign language description tag simply can't read, let his daughter translate, read out, I also remember.

We do not rent headphones. May be rented also could not understand. Only from the perspective of the eyes. The sculpture of gentle, rounded lines, these suits are worth wandering thin.

Uffizi galleries large collections since the 13th century paintings.

Most of the religious theme. Which the Virgin holding the Holy Infant Jesus of the Virgin and child like and contents of Jesus suffered, of art. Because coming from different years and different artists, although the contents are the same, but different style. There is a portrait of the Virgin and child, the child eyes sophisticated acuteness, seems to be penetrated, monk Aeschylus child identity does not match me seriously impressed. Maybe the artist to show is that El Niño is a child, was his prophetic vision and insight into all genius? just like Chinese legends, Sage is always proactive. Moreover, where the saints are not from the normal way to Earth. They either from the mother's reins born, or jump from what it is.

Talk about it, see a picture of us and God Venus from a shell in the slowly rising, delicate skin, long fluffy curls, face blue and beautiful.

This is called the Portage Miceli's painter painting. Watch watching his other works, the paintings of the Virgin and child, is also a lovely Virgin kind and child, with a dense human affection. To me this amateur, I like to have a life's work.

Da Vinci in the Hall there are many works, daughter gave me a one-pointed out (who I am illiterate?).

It is said that there is a picture of the baptism of Christ is the da Vinci Code has not yet become famous for his teacher art, painted, the teacher was surprised, and that the student has more than master. And Leonardo da Vinci's most famous "Mona Lisa" in Paris, the Louvre collection now.

Uffizi Museum also exhibits a lot drawing.

Unfortunately, time is, of course, moreThe main reason is our art of amateur, not careful to watch, just point a-scan. Out of the House, he saw the door selling souvenirs shop, selling the collections brochures of the Chinese version of 10 euro per copy. Without delay, pay to buy a book.

At noon we cross the River at the veranda, the opposite of downtown lunch (a Hamburg a cup of coffee), then follow the trail to walk slowly up to Michelangelo square, named from the point of view, this square is the commemoration of the great Michelangelo sculptor, painter and architect of the Plaza Central High stands Milosevic's masterpieces: the statue of David.

While at the same time, this square is also a commanding point in the city. In view of the square, near foluolun, Arno River with the sparkling turquoise waters of the River lined Brown roof, high above it stands the Notre Dame Cathedral and hundred great dome and the town hall tower. In the afternoon sun, the mountains surrounded by quiet and beautiful foluolun Isaac.

Sun goes down, daughter finally visited the veranda of the jewellery and leather, clothing stores in the vicinity.
