A new exhibit at the Louvre in Paris is marking 500 years since Leonardo da Vinci’s death, using pieces from the museum’s own collection and from institutions around the world.
The exhibit, just called Leonardo da Vinci, includes many of his well-known masterpieces, as well as many drawings and scientific sketches. It runs until February 24, 2020.
Vincent Delieuvin from the Louvre said the museum wants the exhibit to tell people about every part of Da Vinci’s career and development as an artist.
Da Vinci’s famous Mona Lisa painting will remain where it usually is in the Louvre, but visitors to the new exhibit can enjoy a virtual reality experience that tells the story behind the painting.
The Louvre had trouble borrowing some pieces for the exhibit. Da Vinci’s drawing of a man with perfect proportions, Vitruvian Man arrived in France just days before it opened.
Italian culture group Our Italy tried to stop the loan, saying that the drawing could get damaged if it was moved. However, an Italian court said it could be loaned to the French museum for eight weeks. The Louvre will lend several pieces of art to Rome in return.
The Louvre has also been trying to borrow a painting called Salvator Mundi, which was sold to an anonymous buyer for a record-breaking $450 million in 2017. No one is certain where the painting is, but many people believe that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is its new owner.
Art experts have not yet agreed whether or not Da Vinci really did paint the Salvator Mundi. The Louvre said it would not make any judgment on the painting until they have it in the museum.
For now, a different version of Salvator Mundi made in Da Vinci's studio is being used in the Louvre exhibit.
パリのルーブル美術館での新しい展示は、レオナルドダヴィンチの死から500年を記念し、博物館自身のコレクションと世界中の機関の作品を使用しています。
ちょうどレオナルドダヴィンチと呼ばれるこの展示には、彼の有名な傑作の多くだけでなく、多くの図面や科学スケッチが含まれています。 2020年2月24日まで実行されます。
ルーヴル美術館のヴィンセント・デリエヴィンは、美術館が、ダヴィンチの芸術家としてのキャリアと発展のあらゆる部分を人々に伝えることを望んでいると語った。
ダヴィンチの有名なモナリザの絵画は、ルーヴル美術館の通常の場所に残りますが、新しい展示の訪問者は、絵画の背後にある物語を伝える仮想現実体験を楽しむことができます。
ルーヴル美術館は展示のためにいくつかの作品を借りるのに苦労しました。ダヴィンチの完璧なプロポーションを持つ男の絵、ウィトルウィウスマンは、開幕の数日前にフランスに到着しました。
イタリアの文化グループOur Italyは、図面を移動すると破損する可能性があるとして、融資を停止しようとしました。しかし、イタリアの裁判所は、8週間フランスの博物館に貸し出すことができると述べました。ルーヴル美術館はその見返りにローマにいくつかの芸術品を貸し出します。
ルーヴル美術館はまた、サルバトール・ムンディと呼ばれる絵画を借りようとしました。これは2017年に4億5000万ドルの記録破りで匿名のバイヤーに売却されました。 Salmanは新しい所有者です。
ダ・ヴィンチが本当にサルヴァトール・ムンディを描いたのかどうか、美術の専門家はまだ合意していません。ルーヴル美術館は、美術館に展示されるまで絵画について判断を下さないと述べました。
今のところ、ダ・ヴィンチのスタジオで作られたサルバトール・ムンディの異なるバージョンがルーヴル美術館の展示で使用されています
I used to be a university faculty in music department for over twenty years. My major was conducting for both orchestra and chorale. In addition to these classes, I taught my students analyzing opera masterpieces which are written by famous composers such as Mozart, Verdi and Pucchini.
After retirement I'm still involved in music such as a conductor and concerts producer by profession.
During free time i like to walk around in the beautiful nature,hearing birds singing,and admiring the flowers blooming and watching up stars twinkling.
So I bought a house built in the wood at the top of the mountain, 550 meters higher than the sea level to enjoy the beuaty of nature in the high altitude. But this location is too difficult for my music activities to make good moving way from place to place, because there is no public transportation at all. To avoid this uneasy condition,I have been keeping a rented a studio room in the center of Osaka where is rankled the second largest metropolitan in Japan.
