*British museum(Amenhotep III)

Colossal statue of Amenhotep III

Eighteenth Dynasty, about 1370BC From Thebes.

This fine sculpture stood in the king's mortuary temple to the west of the Nile at Thebes.

It was part of an extensive array of architectural sculpture wich adorned this temple.

The king built many temples in the country (Luxor, Memphis, Elkab, Armant). At Thebes he had a vast temple constructed to his own cult on the West Bank; the colossal statues (known as the Colossi of Memmon), are the most monumental elements still standing.. His main wife was Tiy, who seems to have played an important part in the reign. She appears on monuments more often and more prominently than virtually any queen before her. There are several letters known from the Amarna correspondance, demonstrating the close diplomatic contact of the royal courts at this time.

Sad weekend..Time to say Goodbye!

This weekend was very sad because 170 students left the school...and now I miss them a lot!

On Friday we did all the performance we was preparing during 3 weeks.

My class( Kerry's Class), Rob's Class and Krassie's Class did Grease and I think it was fantastic! We really had a good time preparing and doing it! At the morning we had a few hours to say goodbye...and it was really sad=( Then the rest of the students went to Bath there we could buy some things! At the afternoon we met the new students!

On Sunday we did activities all the day!

Queenswood is not the same without you!!(K)

Pablo Picasso..Cubism!

Pablo Diego Picasso (October 25, 1881 – April 8, 1973) was born in Andalusia Spain, he was the first child of Don José Ruiz y Blasco (1838–1913) and María Picasso y López. Picasso’s family was middle-class; his father was also a painter who specialized in naturalistic depictions of birds and other game. He was a painter, draughtsman, and sculptor. As one of the most recognized figures in twentieth-century art, he is best known for co-founding the Cubist movement and for the wide variety of styles embodied in his work. Among his most famous works are the proto-Cubist Les Demoiselles d'Avignon (1907)

-Les Demoiselles d'Avignon
With Les Demoiselles d'Avignon Picasso reached a level of abstraction that was a radical enough break with the classical dominance of content over form, and the style which followed from it - Cubism. I think this picture show us the female body as Picasso's style!.

One day at HMS BELFAST!

On Thursday we went to London!At the trip I was talking with some friends and i could sleep!When we arrived to London,the same guide who went with us to the Tower of London, explained a lot of interesting things. Then we went to the Hays Gallery and there we can ate our food and bought some souvenirs.
