The Gingerbread Man

Per prepararci al Natale abbiamo letto la storia dell’Omino di Pan di zenzero in lingua inglese. Ai bambini è piaciuta molto nonostante il finale…che non spoilero, ovviamente! La storia è semplice e di facile comprensione per tutti. Dopo averla letta l’abbiamo rappresentata graficamente.

Poi abbiamo pensato di creare un biglietto 3D con i Gingerbread protagonisti…Ognuno lo ha decorato secondo la propria fantasia…Qui sotto eccone alcuni.

Christmas cards

Al suo interno anziché scrivere dei semplici auguri ho pensato di inserire la ricetta per realizzare i mitici biscotti pan di zenzero, ovviamente anche questa in lingua inglese…

Raffinato ma capiente: il vaso da zenzero nei dipinti

Di questo curioso vaso panciuto  mi sono accorta osservando una natura morta di Paul Cézanne del 1895 intitolata Pot de gingembre (ginger jar in inglese), cioè “vaso da zenzero“.

In effetti non era la prima volta che lo vedevo: Cézanne lo ha inserito in decine di dipinti, probabilmente per la sua forma molto semplice assimilabile a un solido geometrico (era lui quello che intendeva «trattare la natura secondo il cilindro, la sfera e il cono»). Eccolo in una Natura morta con mele del 1893-1894, avvolto da una reticella dotata di manici.

Non conoscendo bene quest’oggetto, ma essendo un’appassionata di design dei contenitori (in passato ho scritto dell’aryballos, del rhyton, del calice römer e del cassone nuziale) ho iniziato a documentarmi, scoprendo una storia affascinante e un repertorio vastissimo.
Ma andiamo con ordine: cos’è esattamente il vaso da zenzero? E quando compare per la prima volta in pittura?
William Henry Hunt, Natura morta con vaso da zenzero, 1825, acquerello su carta, cm 19×25, Yale Center for British Art, Londra
Secondo gli storici nacque in Cina durante la dinastia Tang (618-907) come contenitore per le spezie. La sua forma tipica è globulare, con un collo brevissimo e una larga bocca spesso dotata di coperchio. Il vaso è generalmente in porcellana, materiale perfezionato nella stessa epoca simile alla terracotta ma basato su un impasto di caolino e quarzo. Il risultato è un prodotto particolarmente duro ma sottile, dalla superficie liscia e brillante.
Con la dinastia Ming (1368-1644) i vasi da zenzero assunsero una colorazione prevalentemente bianca e blu cobalto e decori a forma di piante, animali o paesaggi. Non mancano anche vasi di colore verde – generalmente esagonali – o decori policromatici.

Questi vasi, che intanto in Cina erano diventati oggetti preziosi di grande valore simbolico (ma ve n’erano anche versioni povere per il trasporto), sbarcarono in Europa nella seconda metà del XVII secolo con l’intensificarsi degli scambi commerciali di tè con l’Estremo Oriente. Nella stessa epoca la conoscenza della cultura cinese venne diffusa in Europa dal gesuita Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680) attraverso il suo trattato La Chine illustrée de plusieurs monuments tant sacrés que profanes.Naturalmente si tratta di descrizioni piuttosto fantasiose perché il monaco non si recò mai in Cina ma utilizzò i materiali inviati dai missionari. Non solo: tutto il suo lavoro era teso a dimostrare che la civiltà cinese discendesse da quella egizia (per fare questo paragonò i geroglifici ai segni della scrittura cinese) e che in origine fossero cristiani (questo giustificava le missioni gesuitiche che avrebbero dovuto far “riscoprire” ai cinesi le loro radici).

Al di là di questi aspetti, la moda delle cineserie impazzò presto in tutta Europa. Avere una stanza “alla cinese” divenne quasi un obbligo in ogni palazzo reale e ben presto si tentò di imitare sia la porcellana sia le sue decorazioni (la famosa ceramica di Delft blu e bianca nasce come tentativo di copiare i vasi provenienti dalla Cina).
Stanza della porcellana, 1763-1764, Palazzo di Schönbrunn, Vienna
È in questo periodo, tra Seicento e Settecento, che il vaso da zenzero compare nei dipinti olandesi (non è un caso: gli olandesi erano grandi navigatori e commercianti) assieme ad altri prodotti costosi come calici veneziani, bicchieri römer, tazze ricavate da conchiglie nautilus, vassoi in argento, tappeti orientali nonché agrumi del Mediterraneo.Tuttavia non si tratta solo di prove di virtuosismo o di celebrazioni della ricchezza dei committenti: queste tele sono sempre vanitas, ammonimenti visivi che ci ricordano la brevità della vita e dei suoi piaceri, come suggerito nella tela seguente da un piccolo orologio aperto sul tavolo.
Willem Kalf, Natura morta con vaso in porcellana cinese, 1669, olio su tela, cm 78×66, Indianapolis Museum of Art
Juriaen van Streeck, Natura morta con tazza di nautilus e vaso di zenzero, 1660-1687, olio su tela, cm 49×41, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna
Appartengono a questa epoca e alla stessa area geografica alcune curiose riproduzioni in argento del vaso da zenzero cinese, con decorazioni riprese dal repertorio classico e dimensioni decisamente maggiorate. Il vaso in foto è alto 42 cm mentre gli originali cinesi vanno dai 18 ai 26 cm di altezza.

Dopo questo primo momento di gloria il vaso da zenzero ricompare nei dipinti nell’Ottocento, in un momento in cui inizia a diventare un oggetto più a buon mercato ampiamente diffuso nelle case europee.Eccolo in un quadro del 1869 dell’olandese Maria Vos (1824-1906), in cui è raffigurato un angolo di un negozio di antiquariato coi suoi ricchi decori blu che risaltano sui toni caldi dell’insieme.

Qui invece è stato dipinto nel 1876 dallo statunitense William Michael Harnett (1848-1892) con la stessa rete impagliata usata per il trasporto che abbiamo visto all’inizio nelle opere di Cézanne.

La cordicella è presente anche nella tela del 1890 del pittore americano di trompe l’oeil John Frederick Peto (1854-1907).

Il britannico Henry Stacy Marks (1829-1898) ha scelto invece di rappresentare il vaso da zenzero nelle mani dell’antiquario Frederick Litchfield, un fine intenditore di ceramiche cinesi bianche e blu, così di moda tra il 1870 e il 1890. Qui sta esaminando un vaso dell’epoca Kangxi (1662-1722).

Accanto al collezionismo di pezzi originali esisteva un’ampia produzione inglese, tedesca e statunitense che riprendeva la forma tondeggiante del vaso da zenzero applicando sulla superficie colori e decori di tradizione europea. Ne sono stati realizzati anche esemplari con motivi vegetali in rilievo, in stile Art Nouveau, e con finiture iridescenti a lustro. Ma i pittori preferivano sempre gli originali!

Il vaso da zenzero era un oggetto talmente famoso che alcuni artisti erano anche grandi collezionisti. Tra questi lo statunitense James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), proprietario di una collezione di oltre duecento pezzi (non solo barattoli da zenzero…), di cui alcuni visibili in questo Autoritratto nello studio del 1865.

Whistler è anche autore di un disegno in stile giapponese del 1878 che raffigura il tanto amato vaso cinese…

… nonché dell’allestimento tra il 1876 e il 1877 della Peacock Room (stanza del pavone) per le porcellane cinesi del magnate britannico della navigazione Frederick Leyland, nella sua casa di Londra (oggi la stanza è esposta allo Smithsonian di Washington).

Qualche anno dopo, esattamente nel 1885, un bel vaso da zenzero esagonale, di colore turchese, compare in un’insolita natura morta di Vincent van Gogh, circondato da alcune mele e usato come vaso da fiori.

Quella di riempirlo di fiori è una scelta abbastanza frequente, come dimostrano tanti dipinti di fine Ottocento/inizio Novecento.
Floris Arntzenius, Nasturzi in vaso da zenzero, 1890-1925
George Hendrik Breitner, Vaso di fiori, 1900-1923
Frans Oerder, Anemoni in vaso da zenzero, 1910-1944
Un vaso da zenzero con fiori si trova anche in un suggestivo dipinto del 1916 dell’olandese Jan Mankes (1889-1920)…

… e in tanti quadri di Henry Matisse, come questa Natura morta con Pensieri di Pascal del 1924…

… e questa Natura morta con limoni del 1943.

Insomma, questo vasetto così esotico non smise di esercitare il suo fascino per oltre trecento anni! Ne restò incantato persino l’ideatore del Neoplasticismo Piet Mondian (guarda caso un olandese).Nel 1901, quando non aveva ancora intrapreso il suo percorso verso l’astrazione, ne dipinse uno esagonale, di colore turchese, assieme a cinque mele e un piatto sopra un piano ricoperto da un drappo. È chiaro che, come in Cézanne, l’intento non è la creazione di una vanitas bensì quello della ricerca geometrica e compositiva.

Il vaso da zenzero ritorna dieci anni dopo, quando Mondrian conobbe le opere cubiste di Pablo Picasso e Georges Braque, come oggetto su cui sperimentare nuovi linguaggi. Nel 1911 dipinge Natura morta con vaso da zenzero I, una vista del tavolo da lavoro che ricorda ancora le nature morte della tradizione se non fosse per il trattamento sintetico degli oggetti.

Dell’anno seguente è Natura morta con vaso da zenzero II, una composizione di gusto cubista nella quale l’unico tocco di colore è il celeste del contenitore cinese.

Sappiamo come proseguirà il suo percorso: al posto di vasi e tavoli solo linee verticali e linee orizzontali; al posto delle nuance ocra e turchesi solo toni di grigio e piani rossi, gialli e blu.
Il vaso di zenzero stava per completare il suo ciclo vitale nella pittura, ma rimane nelle opere conservate nei musei, a testimoniare il contatto creativo tra cultura materiale e riflessione concettuale e le epoche passate di fertili scambi estetici tra oriente e occidente.

The Reason Why?

The girls merely see a profile and bio that labels them as a platonic friend or boyfriend.

Holy Idea:

Among the many quickest ways to frighten adequate women is to use childish abbreviations, bad spelling, and incorrect sentence structure.

And finally, he hits this lady with a compliment:

I like the name Nikki have no idea exactly why

He loves her title. Cool.

Nothing like she must try to get it. As she politely explains.

The exact opposite side of the spectrum can also be very real.

Men making it specific the things they’re after:

A response like this is a rarity.

And while we agree that you wish to telegraph what you are after, thestart of discussionis not the greatest time for significant honesty.

Because following opener is where obtain this lady thrilled for hookup.

Action number 3: Tinder hookup traces

Today, i’ll demonstrate  genuine texts that got guys put and messages that got dudes unrivaled.

But basic circumstances initial.

To seduce some one, and then have an effective Tinder hook-up talk, it is advisable to know that the fundamentals nevertheless apply.

You’re a guy that likes women.

She is a girl that loves guys.

You both enjoyed one another’s profile. So appearances do not be seemingly problems.

Now before she requires“wanna bang?”, which she’ll 99percent of that time period do in Method subtler steps, there is yet another thing you should do:

You should not screw up the talk.

Listed here is a fascinating strategy from a female.

In the place of dull or boring the woman match with horrible classics like:

Hey

Just how are you currently? ????

What now ? for work?

Exactly how was actually your entire day?

What are you undertaking?

She applies to the murder:

Keep in mind that she doesn’t instantly try for the number.

There’s an imaginative accumulation.

She makes it feel like absolutely a real computer problem that she requires help with.

And I also don’t know about you, but about 69per cent of men happen contacted strictly for his or her computer and IT skills before.

One slightdetail:

The male is ten instances easier than women regarding hookups.

As we’ve authorized of the woman looks, we simply wish the shortest route toward vayjayland.

Ladies, having said that, run a complete list:

Perform I Believe comfy?

Will I be safe?

Will it be awkward?

Is actually he polite?

Would personally i think drawn to their individuality?

And though the next guy is incredibly onward, no females is ever going to need to ask herself:

“really does he want a hookup, or a reliable union?”

His opener is actually straight to the point

(and stolen out of this renowned movie world:)

Also interesting about his hook up discussion, is that he starts awesome sexually by stating he is here toclap face.

(that i cannot suggest. Indeed certainly one of mytexting guidelinesisnever ever immediately sexualize in your opener.)

But, whenever she defuses his attempt at sexualizing by claiming:

I actually have actually Capri-sun

The guy does not make an effort to sway their, in fact, he does the contrary. The guy lets it be. The guy walks away and then he claims:

I guess Really don’t require the face subsequently

Which is the interesting part.

Look at her reply:

We mean… there’s always both ????

From deflecting the sexual feeling to proposing it.

What this person does very well, and do just as well, is quitede-escalatingin order to elevate.

Ever experienced a situation where someone confirmed interest in you over an extended duration?

And suddenly, that individual actually curious anymore?

For manyphucked upexplanation, it is extremely likely that their disinterest inside you abruptly enables you to interested in all of them.

Now we’re not planning plunge into deep information and brabble around 30 minutes about the reason we pursue those who overlook united states. Instead, I’m going to tell you thatdisinterest also raises appeal for a while.

As a matter of fact, that’s what took place in the last screenshot example.

Do remember that there has to be SOME intrigue inside you to help make this work. You simply can’t program fascination with someone who dislikes you, subsequently take away your own interest and expect these to abruptly want you.

Maybe not attending happen.

Anyway, one thing is for certain. In case your aim is actually a hookup, you should get the woman wide variety sooner than afterwards.

Why?
