Literature. Part fifty one.

                                                   "The Snow Queen" by Hans Christian Andersen.

Once upon a time evil troll created a magic mirror. Bad things became good, good things became bad in it. The mirror broke into small pieces.

Kai and Gerda were friends. They lived not far from each other.

A small piece of the magic mirror got in Kai'e eye. The boy became evil and rube.

During winter Kai disappeared. Little girl went to find the boy. At that time Kai was with the Snow Queen. His heart became ice.

Gerda met many different people on her way. They were kind and evil. But little Gerda found Kai and saved him. At the end he became kind again.

There are many illustrations, movies, and cartoons about this story. Fairy tale was translated to many languages.

Baroque.

Baroque style was important for European people from XVII until XVIII centuries. This type of art manifested itself in a variety of things. Painting, architecture, philosophy, music, sculpture, theatre.

Pictures of this era were bright. Example, Still-life by Josefa de Obidos. In Baroque architecture, popular was luxury. Baroque and Classicism have similar features.

Example, the Church of Saint Susanna at the Baths of Diocletain.

Baroque style was big on large premises. Furnitures were big, too. Mirrors with frames, chairs with luxurious backs, huge beds.

In music were popular composers such as Johann Sebastian Bach, Antonio Vivaldi, Claudio Monteverdi.

Fashion of Baroque looked rich. Big dresses and wigs were very popular. Rich women used make up.

P.S. Baroque created a path for modern art.
