For the first time, I have finally been to an England Football match. The 1-0 win over Portugal was the final pre Euro 2016 friendly. Well worth the trip with Dad and the 1.5 day annual leave.

1). ROMA - Civis Civitas Civilitas - Roma antica modello di città (21/12/2019 - 18/10/2020)

Mercati di Traiano Museo dei Fori Imperiali (07/2020 - 10/2020).

 

La cultura romana si è radicata nei territori conquistati militarmente attraverso il modello di vita urbano, che si esprime negli edifici che qualificano la città come tale.

 

La mostra intende descrivere questo processo affiancando edifici dalle funzioni analoghe distribuiti nelle città dell’impero. Una mostra dedicata alla relazione fra città, cittadinanza e civiltà nel mondo romano, descritta attraverso i plastici delle architetture antiche.

Per l’occasione è stata realizzata una guida breve edita da De Luca editori d’Arte ed è prevista la pubblicazione dell'atlante fotografico dei plastici dopo il loro restauro, edita da L’Erma di Bretschneider.

Il progetto espositivo documenta il carattere prettamente urbano della cultura classica. La condivisione degli spazi, degli edifici e delle leggi costituisce la civitas, il fulcro della civiltà romana. La mostra è quindi un viaggio negli spazi e negli edifici delle città dell’Impero, rappresentati nei plastici in gesso del Museo della Civiltà Romana, in gran parte realizzati da Italo Gismondi per la Mostra Augustea della Romanità del 1937. I modelli raffigurano in parte lo stato di fatto dei monumenti negli anni Trenta del Novecento, in parte le loro ricostruzioni: all’intrinseco valore scientifico aggiungono pertanto anche il valore di documentazione di monumenti trasformati o scomparsi, soprattutto nei territori teatro di eventi bellici.

La mostra si presenta come un evento dal carattere dinamico: l’inaugurazione del 20 dicembre aprirà infatti solo la prima sezione della mostra, allestita nella Grande Aula e sui matronei del Museo dei Fori Imperiali nei Mercati di Traiano e costituita da 58 plastici e da 6 calchi di sculture rappresentanti famosi personaggi del mondo romano; nel 2020 saranno inaugurate le sezioni successive, allestite lungo il percorso esterno dei Mercati di Traiano, lungo la via Biberatica.

Per tutta la sua durata, la mostra sarà corredata da eventi e da iniziative culturali e didattiche; nell’ideazione e realizzazione delle attività didattiche, indirizzate a tutti secondo i criteri dell’accessibilità e dell’integrazione, saranno coinvolti i tirocinanti e i volontari dei progetti del Servizio Nazionale Civile che prestano servizio nel Museo dei Fori Imperiali.

 

Dal 29 giugno apre la seconda sezione della mostra, l’immagine della vita della Civitas nell’impero romano, raccontata attraverso i plastici delle architetture antiche, viene completata dalle sezioni dedicate alle infrastrutture con 30 nuove opere relative a ponti, acquedotti e mercati.

Un nuovo nucleo di modelli, costituito da 24 plastici, 5 rilievi e un ritratto. Con queste nuove opere l’immagine della Civitas si completa con le infrastrutture legate alla mobilità (ponti), all’acqua (acquedotti e sistemi di accumulo e distribuzione), al commercio (mercati).

 

L’infrastrutturazione del territorio costituisce il tessuto connettivo che permette alle città di alimentarsi di cibo e acqua, di scambiare merci, di mantenere stretto contatto con l’amministrazione centrale.

Ponti e acquedotti romani, spesso rimasti in uso o recuperati in età postantica, sono un vero landmark della penetrazione della cultura romana e compaiono in territori anche molto lontani e periferici rispetto alle vie di comunicazione più note. Il plastico del Pont du Gard, il celebre acquedotto che riforniva di acqua la città di Nemausus (Nîmes) apre questa sezione presieduta dal ritratto di Nerva. Una voce narrante accompagna il visitatore con un brano del De Aquaeductu di Frontino, l’architetto nominato curator aquarum da Nerva nel 95.

I mercati nella città romana sono una vera e propria infrastruttura economica: ampi spazi con tabernae distribuite lungo il perimetro e zone coperte con fontane e vasche per la pulizia delle merci; i plastici dei mercati di Leptis Magna e di Timgad rappresentano questa tipologia. In questa sala una voce narrante recita un testo di Plauto e vivaci rilievi con raffigurazione di botteghe di macelleria, frutteria e vineria. illustrano la vita quotidiana nei luoghi del commercio.

Arrivano in mostra anche modelli, di cui è stato completato il restauro, pertinenti alle sezioni già in esposizione da dicembre. Fra questi lo spettacolare plastico del santuario di Baalbek.

Mentre il monumentale modello del ponte di Rimini, in scala 1:20, ancora in restauro, sarà l’ultima opera a arrivare in esposizione.

 

IL PERCORSO ESPOSITIVO COMPLETO

Il progetto espositivo documenta il carattere prettamente urbano della cultura classica. La condivisione degli spazi, degli edifici e delle leggi costituisce la civitas, il fulcro della civiltà romana. La mostra è quindi un viaggio negli spazi e negli edifici delle città dell’Impero, rappresentati nei plastici in gesso del Museo della Civiltà Romana, in gran parte realizzati da Italo Gismondi per la Mostra Augustea della Romanità del 1937.

I modelli raffigurano in parte lo stato di fatto dei monumenti negli anni Trenta del Novecento, in parte le loro ricostruzioni: all’intrinseco valore scientifico aggiungono pertanto anche il valore di documentazione di monumenti trasformati o scomparsi, soprattutto nei territori teatro di eventi bellici.

La mostra, nel suo complesso, sviluppa sette macrotemi, tutti rappresentati dai plastici posizionati nella Grande Aula già per l’apertura del 20 dicembre, e poi declinati in una serie di temi specifici: gli spazi pubblici (indicati da fori, curie, capitolia e templi); l’acqua nel decoro della città (fontane, ninfei e terme); lo spettacolo (teatri e anfiteatri); il trionfo, l’onore e il passaggio (archi trionfali e onorari, porte urbiche); il commercio (mercati); la memoria individuale, familiare e dello Stato (sepolcri e monumenti); le infrastrutture (ponti, acquedotti, cisterne, castelli di distribuzione dell’acqua).

Spiccano, per le proporzioni e per l’accuratezza della resa, i plastici del Foro di Augusto, che apre la mostra e che per la sua efficacia comunicativa è stato spostato dalla sala sul matroneo a monte al vano centrale della Grande Aula, del Foro di Pompei con gli edifici annessi, della scena del teatro di Sabratha in Libia, delle Terme di Treviri in Germania e della Porta detta di Sant’Andrea ad Autun, in Francia.

 

La narrazione del percorso è scandita da testi antichi pertinenti ai singoli temi e pronunciati dalle voci narranti degli stessi autori o dei loro destinatari, rappresentati da calchi di statue o ritratti del Museo della Civiltà Romana: fra questi risulta particolarmente vivace l’ambientazione delle terme descritta da Seneca in una lettera a un amico.

“Nell’antichità i valori che danno il senso della comunità, della condivisione, dell’appartenenza si rigenerano attraverso la riproposizione delle tipologie edilizie destinate alle funzioni della vita pubblica, alla esaltazione dei meriti individuali e alla perpetuazione della memoria familiare. In occasione della fondazione di nuove città o della trasformazione degli insediamenti più antichi era sempre adottato il medesimo impianto ortogonale e le singole tipologie di edifici rispondevano per lo più a forme architettoniche prestabilite, che dipendevano da una costruzione della città di Roma, considerata come il modello da riproporre” (dall’introduzione nella guida breve).

 

Le tipologie monumentali individuate sono pertanto significative del concetto di identità romana espresso con immediatezza e forza dall’architettura che costituiva il “segno” nel paesaggio dell’espansione di Roma. Roma appare dunque ai visitatori della mostra quale modello di comunità (civitas) quanto mai contemporaneo nella sua multiculturalità.

2). ROMA - Carlo Pavia, ARCHEOTOUR, PIERINO DI CARLO E IL GRANDE PLASTICO DI ROMA ANTICA. Latina Città Aperta (08/11/2019).

 

Ho scritto un libro sul Maestro Di Carlo ma è impossibile descrivere qui, in poche parole, la sua professionalità e la sua persona. Posso solo dire che, insieme a pochissimi altri, Pierino è stato uno dei miei maestri, quelli che mi hanno forgiato e mi hanno aiutato a spiccare il volo.

 

Il plastico, è nato negli anni ’30 per la Mostra Augustea della Romanità inaugurata nel 1937 per celebrare il bimillenario della nascita dell’imperatore Augusto.

 

L’opera è di straordinario effetto per le grandi dimensioni ed è oggi posta in una grande sala del Museo della Civiltà Romana all’Eur.

Un piano rialzato posto tutto intorno al plastico permette di osservarlo da tutte le direzioni offrendo la possibilità di fare un vero e proprio tuffo nel passato.

 

Fu realizzata con un lungo e paziente lavoro dal maestro artigiano Pierino Di Carlo nell’ex pastificio Pantanella sotto la guida dell’architetto Italo Gismondi che lo progettò utilizzando tutte le fonti disponibili a partire dalla Forma Urbis Romae (cartografia di Roma Antica) di Rodolfo Lanciani.

 

Il museo contiene altri plastici che ricostruiscono varie fasi di espansione della città dalla sua nascita.

The Architectural Model of Ancient Rome is the main attraction of the Museum of Roman Civilization. It represents the most realistic and detailed reconstruction of the Rome of Caesars at the time of its greatest expansion under Emperor Constantine in the fourth century a.C.

 

www.flickr.com/photos/imperial_fora_of_rome/50067570426

 

Its construction is based on the main archaeological knowledge of the years when was made, starting from the Forma Urbis Severiana by Rodolfo Lanciani (published in 1893) under a project by an extraordinary architect who was Italo Gismondi (with the help of the architects Gatti and Colini) and the unparalleled hand of the moldmalker Piero di Carlo (1906-1992).

 

www.flickr.com/photos/imperial_fora_of_rome/50067828337

 

The construction of the model took place at the laboratory of the old Museo dell’Impero Romano in Piazza Bocca della Verità, near the Circus Maximus, first in partial size, to be exposed to the Mostra augustea della Romanità held at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in 1937, and then continuously expanded with additions as a result of updated studies and new discoveries.

The Museum of Roman Civilization preserves countless architectural models of individual buildings, archaeological sites and architectural complexes of ancient Rome and the provinces of the empire, for the most part made by the skilled hand of Piero di Carlo.

The Alaska Ski for Women is an annual event, held on Super Bowl Sunday, at Kincaid Park in west Anchorage. The 2011 ski was held on 6 Feb 2011 on a bitterly cold day.

 

The Ski for Women is a big fundraising event with the proceeds going to agencies that specialize in dealing with abuse and violence against women and children.

 

The ski is part fun and part competition with a lot of cool costumes; there was an incredible turnout considering how cold and windy it was. I was there for a little over two hours and could barely feel my toes and fingers despite being prepared for the cold - but it was definitely worth it.

 

Good fun for good causes - Alaskan women do rock!

2022 Weekly Alphabet Challenge.

A is for Afternoon.

Staying with friends in Martinborough. This afternoon we had a walk then a picnic under the trees.

 

3rd January 2022.

We had a trip to Prague in January – for Jayne’s birthday - we don’t buy Christmas or birthday presents, we travel instead. We left snowy England for a very, very dull and grey Czech Republic. Yet again I was on a photographic downer looking at the weather forecast, grey is the colour that haunts me. Fortunately it was dull grey and not burnt highlight inducing bright grey.With the grey sky acting like a big diffuser I was going to have deep shadow and contrast to deal with. We had three very short spells of broken cloud which gave us a bit of sun and colour, which I managed to more or less anticipate so we managed to be in decent locations every time – generally somewhere high.

 

We had been upgraded to a five star hotel, apparently our original choice was flooded. We got compensation and five star hotel upgrade– a first for me. The Art Nouveau Palace has a beautiful interior, with beautiful rooms, the breakfast room was fantastic, as was the breakfast it has to be said. We were able to have an early breakfast so were out on foot just after eight. It was very cold – and dull! We spent the whole week well wrapped up. It drizzled for a day, but never really wet us, it snowed for a day, again we didn’t get wet and the snow didn’t settle. We walked 65 mile, spending plenty of time checking buildings and their interiors out – and coffee shop and bar interiors it has to be said. Although it was dull and sometimes wet I decided that the Camera was staying in my hands for the whole trip. Whenever I put it in my backpack for one reason or another I regret it.

 

Again, I didn’t look at any photographs of Prague before we got there, I like to just walk and discover, with the DK guidebook in my pocket (which is full of photos it has to be said). We like to get off the beaten track and see the grittier side of the places we visit – within reason! Prague has an incredible tram network, over 1000 trams – with many of them Tatra Eastern Bloc machines. The system seems chaotic but in reality it is incredible with one of the largest networks and highest usages in the world. The trams and cars frequently share the same road space with very little in the way of drama, none of the inexplicable and pathetic constant horn blowing one finds in many countries. Once it became apparent that buildings with a grey blanket as a background were going to be a bit un-inspirational I decided that the trams would be a good focal point instead. Where I have photographed one of the older trams against a background without clues it is easy to imagine that the photos were taken fifty years ago.

 

The train network also provided photo opportunities. The rolling stock ranges from old Eastern Bloc to very modern double decker’s and pendolinos. There are three stations although we visited the main station and Smichov. The main station interior is art deco and has been renovated by a private company. The exterior and the platforms are very rundown with a grim eastern bloc 1950’s feel –but it works! We discovered to our amusement that we could just walk across multiple lines, no health and safety, just keep your eyes open and don’t walk under a train – you’ll make a mess. Smichov station was grim, it didn’t help that it snowed all day and was grey and bitter. We felt like we were in a 50’s film set in Russia, broken concrete platforms and dereliction. With both stations there was another world underneath them. The underground Metro is running seamlessly and efficiently away beneath your feet. I didn’t have any problems taking photos anywhere but I was very open and obviously a tourist, I didn’t act covertly or suspiciously. There was only one occasion I was stopped and that was in a shopping centre – full of CCTV cameras filming everyone else!

 

We discovered old and beautiful- and very large- shopping centres hidden away in quite a few places. Brass framed windows and doors, shops thriving, there was a massive camera shop with thousands of second hand cameras, too much to look at. Many of the landmark buildings prevent photography, some make a small charge, some encourage it, the DK guide book gives a good indication regarding camera use. Nothing stops many people though, they just shoot away regardless, usually wanting a picture that includes their self. Prague is surrounded by low hills and has a fair few towers that you can pay a few pounds to go up, so viewpoints are plentiful. I think we visited most of them. I read about the Zizkov Tower, which looks like a Soviet rocket on the horizon and we headed straight for it - after crossing the rail lines! Set in a quiet residential area, there wasn’t a soul about. Two beautiful girls on reception and we parted with a few pounds, into the lift and were on the observation deck with no one else up there. There are fantastic views over the city, but! It is through two layers of not very clean glass so you go for the view rather than sharp panoramas. Still a fascinating place, with a nice café bar and very clean toilets – there are toilets everywhere, usually manned with a fee. Places are well staffed compared with home were three students are supposed to run a 20 screen multiplex cinema.

 

Graffiti was prominent, no matter how grand the monument, some moron would have daubed it. How do they get away with it in a 24 hour city centre with a strong police presence? The place is very clean, constantly being swept. What did surprise me, was that many buildings, that looked grand and built of stone, from a distance, were actually rendered with very low quality brickwork concealed. When restored the building look very impressive, others are missing the outer render from ground level to a fair height.

 

I need to cut this short really, I like to put a background story to the photos and although it would be better to individualise it to a specific photo or group of photos I don’t have the time to do that. I do try to give specific detail in the title bar after I have uploaded, this is time consuming enough although I’m pretty proficient at it by now. There are many things I would like to write that should be of interest to anyone thinking of going to Prague but I’ll have to let the pictures do the talking. As usual I am unlikely to be selective enough with my uploads, I’m not very good at leaving photos out so I just upload and be damned.

cwd1072 - Super Bowl Ad Here in America, the biggest sporting event of the year takes place this Sunday. It's also the biggest event for TV advertisers. Since we're not doing video here, we're going to pretend that it's the biggest event for print advertising too. Create an ad that would be worth the insane amount of money advertisers pay to run their ads during the big game. Your product or service can be real of fictional -- but remember, we're talking big money! Your ad needs to jump out and grab people and make them want whatever it is you're selling. You're free to add text, etc. to your ad -- but it must include a new image taken this week. Also, if you choose to create an ad for a real product, be creative -- don't just steal an existing slogan. Make it your own!

 

Well, I must say - again I'm sorely disappointed with my inability to use photoshop. I really need to learn how use that tool.

Here the second dress set I made for John. I let me inspired by a picture he send to me.

 

To adorn this dress, I made a little fur collar with a removable pink bow.

 

This dress is based on a 3D trim of white roses applied. I created a new pattern to make it. I myself used and applied a tiny trim for a ruffled effect on the rest of the dress. The sleeves are extended by a lace with embroidered roses. The waist is high and tightened with a white ribbon and a small lace underlines the neckline. The dress is fully lined.

 

This dress is worn by my Merry Skier Blythe doll.

Pyongyang is the capital of the DPRK and the centre of politics, the economy and culture.

 

As the cradle of the Taedonggang Culture, it has over 5 000-year-long history since Tangun, founder king, established Ancient Korea and set Pyongyang as its capital.

 

In spring Moran Hill, a "garden of the capital," is full of flowers and the picturesque Taedong River flows through the city centre. So Pyongyang is called a city in a park. Such surroundings make Pyo according to north korean guides. Pyongyang the "World Best Beauty".

 

Major Attractions : Grand Monument on Mansu Hill, Tower of the Juche Idea, Arch of Triumph, Party Founding Memorial Tower, Mangyongdae Schoolchildren’s Palace, Grand People’s Study House, Victorious Fatherland Liberation War Museum and Pyongyang Metro.

For 2005 Transunion took 5 Indcar Wing-bodied Daily A65C17s. These were nominally 24-seaters. Here is 2530 DKG in Puerto Alcudia in 2010. Duty number 495 indicates that is was then based at Can Picafort depot.

For weeks I’ve been trying to think of some comforting words to write to the family of Horst (*hb19) who passed away and left flickr world mourning for an incredible nice and kind man – someone I would have loved to meet in person.

 

It’s Friday and I have a day off… sitting on my balcony I thought “Horst would have sent us Friday-flowers…” And then I looked into the sun and thought “this is how he saw the world – bright and wonderful”. This is for you, Horst… and for your family. We won’t forget you - rest in peace.

Let me introduce you my new outfit made with ingenuousness for Sophia. She desired an "Sailor" dress set.

Regarding the colors, I did a study around the tones of an old doll whose the atmosphere is a very soft sailor witch I love a lot.

So a base of ivory and blue-gray with a touch of tonic red.

 

This set consists of a dress, an overskirt, removable collar and stockings.

 

- The high waist overskirt typically nautical have two folds that open onto a striped fabric and bordered by dark green lines. A light silk ribbon bow, small brass buttons and a brass star adorn this skirt.

- The dress is cut in a lined fabric and trimmed with lace and ribbon at the bottom.

- For the stockings and the dress's breastplate, I painted myself red stripes on an ivory fabric to give an old craft touch.

- The removable sailor collar finished by a small red bow, edged with fine aqua silk ribbon

 

I also want to introduce you one of my new dolls customized by me during the past months.

 

Her name is "My Bloomy" because she's very inspired by Bloomy Bloomsbury, one of my favorite Blythe.

 

She is a FBL original Takara Blythe "Prima Dolly Tokyo", I bought her second hand to be customized for me.

 

Work done:

· Carving of her nose, lips and philtrum

· New full makeup made with artist Extra Soft Pastels "à l'écu" from Sennelier and sealed with several layers of MSC

· Tiny freckles

· Sleepy eyes

· Gaze corrected

· New lashes

· Eyelids painted with artist Extra Soft Pastels "à l'écu" from Sennelier

· Four new pairs of eye chips hand painted by me using professional Golden iridescent fluid acrylics. Blue(right), Dark red (center), Pink (left), Dark green (center)

· Full reroot using locked loop method with Katsilk 83 Glitter saran, a lovely mixture of two light brown

 

Je l'adore!! :-))
