Madame Tussaud
Datum: 2008-10-10 Kl: 18:10:44På engelskan idag så skrev jag om Madame Tussaud. Jag blev riktigt stolt över mitt arbete så jag tänkte att jag bjuder på lite från det här...
"Madame Tussaud is a famous wax museum in London. It was set up by wax sculptor Marie Tussaud. Marie Tussaud was born Marie Grosholtz in Strasbourg, France in 1761. Her mother worked as a housekeeper for Dr. Philippe Curtius, who was a doctor skilled in wax modeling. Curtius taught Marie the art of wax modeling. In 1765, Curtius made a waxwork of Marie-Jeanne du Barry, Louis XV’s mistress. A cast of that mould is the oldest work currently on display. The first exhibition of Curtius' waxworks was shown in 1770, and attracted a large audience."...
"One of the main attractions of her museum was the Chamber of Horrors. This part of the exhibition included victims of the French Revolution and newly created figures of murderers and other criminals. Other famous people were added to the exhibition, including Horatio Nelson, and Sir Walter Scott. Some of the sculptures done by Tussaud herself still exist. In 1842, she made a self portrait which is now on display at the entrance of her museum."...
Det var väll bra och det var ändå bara några delar av det jag skrev. Ibland sätter hjärnan ingång och fungera och då får man mycket gjort. Nu är det bara en resa dit som fattas när man redan kan hela muséets historia.
