Venetian glass

Sargent found beauty in the small things women did, whether that be picking a flower, fishing, dancing or doing their daily tasks. One painting he did truly showed his feelings towards the female. The genre scene Venetian glass Workers shows workers producing venetian glassware. During the 1880’s travelers enjoyed purchasing glassware while traveling to venice. This painting displays the separation between native production and tourist consumption in Venetian glassware . In this painting Sargent did not intend to focus on the female body, but what the female stands for. Her independence and spirit is what she should be recognized for, not her image. Each woman had her head down focused on he task at hand. Again Sargent has the women’s hands painted strong and toned. What they are dong is a skill which many craftsman may sometimes struggle. The women appear calm and content while work with such powerful tools. Sargent enjoys expressing women in environments that the public eye may not have access to or know that women even do. Here that is exactly the case. The room they are in is dark and may appear somber. It could be that they were shut away form the outside world because their employers does not want his customer to know that women are making these exquisite Venetian glassware. I find this painting to be a display of strength, because they are in complete darkness making art that is not easy to accomplish. They may not be dressed the nicest of dress, but do not make…

Glass. In modern times this substance is used as a basic necessity for windows, car windshields, bottles, jars, glasses, dishes, etc. Glass was discovered by Egyptians in the sixteenth century B.C. when experimenting with their pottery. During the fifthteenth century, the Egyptians started venturing into glass vessel making. Later, the Phoenicians and Mesopotamians followed suit by developing a fairly adequate method of glass blowing. To describe glass blowing in brief, glass must first be…

Sands Hotel came into existence through the sale of a computer trade show “COMDEX”. In 1989, entrepreneur Sheldon G. Adelson and his partners bought the Sands Hotel and within one year opened the Sands Expo and Convention Center. In 1995, Adelson sold COMDEX for more than $800 million dollars. This money was used for renovations of The Sands Motel, which was inspired by a trip taken to Venice Italy. For the next two years the hotel was reconstructed into a romantic replica of the ambience and…

balance out being a moor and a Venetian. Othello shows various times in the play signs of difficulties that he has while he tries to balance those two things out. He is put into situations that call out characteristics from both personas that affect the way he communicates with various characters throughout the play. The Venetian stereotype of a cruel and ignorant black man and the educated and broad-minded Christian military leader to shine through in his interactions and conversations with…

Italy and some inspiration from his wife, Adelson decided that his goal was to combine the romantic atmosphere of somewhere exotic like Venice, and pair it with all the modern luxuries that only Las Vegas could offer. In 1996, the famous Sands Hotel was torn down and replaced by the finished Venetian in 1999. Adelson abandoned the traditional ideas about keeping hotel rooms small and plain to encourage guests to spend more time in the casino. He wanted every room to be comfortable and luxurious…

material used on the slats. For instance, one can change the slats from glass to wood to aluminum or whichever material one desires. These types of windows are easier to change the appearance than full pane type. Jalousie windows cannot be opened from outside once closed. Jalousie windows can remain open during rains since the glass protrudes outside and prevent most of the water from getting inside the house. One can easily enjoy the storm breeze without soaking surfaces around the window. They…

stained glass they produced. Their daily life was somewhat similar to other peasants in their community because they wore the same clothes and they ate the same food. On the other hand, the glazier would travel and live in workshops instead of staying in one area like other peasants. Furthermore, the glazier had a challenging job because of how stained glass was created, the tools that was used for stained glass, and the training the glazier they had to finish. Lastly, the glazier’s magnificent…

Did you know that over 50 Billion plastic water bottles are used each year by Americans alone. That’s over 150 times the population of America. Just sit and think how many water bottles that actually is, because it is easy to forget how big of a number that actually is. I think bottle flipping should be banned for three main reasons: It’s bad for the environment, the bottles get left everywhere, and It’s loud and annoying. First off, those 50 billion water bottles have to go somewhere and…
