Please note that there sometimes can be a slight color variation from Photo to actual art work Information on Tristan and Isolde The story of Tristan and Isolde was written in the twelfth century. However, as we are restored by Joseph Bedier at the end of the nineteenth century, it is actually a composite reconstruction of the old Celtic legend from fragments rescued Beroul works and especially Thomas. Its barbarity, the first is closer to the original legend. The second is more respectful of the rules of polite society medieval Anglo-French. The story takes place in Cornwall, Brittany and Ireland. It depicts two young men Tristan Loonois (the country of St-Pol-de-Léon), knight and nephew Marc, the old king of Cornwall and Isolde the blonde girl noble Ireland, wife of the same Marc. Throughout the novel recounts the thwarted love as qu'irrésistibles these two youths. Tristan, as if it was a predestination to its future existence is a love child born in sadness. Before his birth, he lost his father and soon after, his mother, sister of King Mark. So he was raised by Rohalt, his adoptive father, Gorvenal and his faithful squire, as a perfect knight, learning martial arts, music, hunt, especially enlightening his existence on fidelity to one's word. Removed by merchants, it is collected, without making himself known, by his uncle, King Mark of Cornwall he decided gratitude, to become the faithful vassal.Il proves his courage and his loyalty by killing Morholt, terrible knight of Ireland and Isolde uncle, who came to claim the tribute of his king. He proves again when will brave the hatred of the Irish fetching Isolde by getting after killing a monster that required its human toll daily. But mostly he swears in the presence of a hundred knights and the relics of the saints to take the girl to be married to King Mark. The boat that carries them to Cornwall, Tristan and Isolde accidentally drank the love potion prepared for the bride and groom. "It was the passion, it was bitter joy and endless anguish and death." If at first the two young men trying to fight against emerging sense if Tristan reproach her jealousy, they quickly let go of force that entails, accepting their fatal destiny. "Vienna so the death!" exclaims Tristan. For lovers begins the era of difficulties, suspicion, anxiety. Isolde will go to the attempted murder of the person Brangien. But "love can not conceal" and although they betray their tricks, despite the words with a double meaning to deceive King Mark Episode as in the tall pine. Tristan managed to escape the stake, Isolde is delivered to the lepers. As a result of this horrible punishment, the lovers feel loose towards the king and take refuge in the forest where they Morois live a rough, wild and happy. God took pity on those who love and King Mark is once again victim of appearances when he discovers the sword between the sleeping body of the fugitives. Before this witness of chastity, he will forgive half. This episode can reintroduce the tear in the spirit of Tristan and Isolde: here they are reminded of their loyalty to their submission to the law. Marc agrees to reconnect with his wife and allows him to justify himself in the episode ford adventurous. Again he is a victim of the malice of Isolde, his words with a double meaning that avoid perjury. Moreover, the sky does not appear in anger. Is God an accomplice lovers from the moment they decided to separate? Unless this is a tribute to the intelligence that love is born in every woman. This is the paradox of history: it is an offense to the rules of the Church and those of courtesy that requires choice and reason. Tristan must go away. The separation is a source of grief. The episode of the bell tells us that wonderful lovers abandon appeasement, to distraction. Suffering, alone, they can still live in unison. Then Tristan, a victim of the distance and time, believes qu'Yseut has forgotten. After waging war in Britain, he gets a reward of faith Isolde with white hands. He knows remorse for having betrayed the first Isolde and of not being able to honor his marriage with the second. Appearances, but also jealousy and infidelity a time will separate the lovers and hasten the inevitable end. There will still be some happy moments where the knight dressed in crazy subjected to insults of the court, may still approach the woman he loves. Then came the final separation and reunion eternal time after will be "drunk all the misery and joy." Previously remains to pass the ultimate test: mortally wounded Tristan Isolde wants to see one last time. Answer does his call? Betrayed by the second Iseult (sign she could match her rival), Tristan dies without appeasement, followed shortly by the blond Isolde. A bramble symbolic yet meet their graves: love is stronger than death DALI was born on 11th of May in1904 at 8:45 in the morning in the town of Figueres, Girona, as Salvador, Domingo, Felipe, Dalí Jacinth, son of Salvador Dalí i Cusí, notary, and Felipa Doménech. He was born three years after the death of his first-born brother, caused by a meningitis when he was only seven years old. The given name, Salvador, used to have his dead brother who looked like painter' s twin. „The young patient“ is the title of his first self-portrait, painted at the age of ten years. Shortly after Salvador began his first drawing course with Juan Núñez with whom he learned the use of chiaroscuro.He was admitted at the School of Fine Arts of San Fernando (Madrid) in 1921, from where he was expelled, accused of subversion anarchist; he was arrested and he passed a short period in the jail, in Girona (1923). After being readmitted, definitively Salvador was expelled in 1926 because of his eccentricity. It is said that when he was during an examination requested to speak about Rafael, Dalí responded to the court: “It is impossible for me to speak of that subject in front of the three professors, because I know much more about Rafael than all of you.” The following year Dalí met Picasso in Paris, and ten years later, in London, Stefan Zweig presented Sigmund Freud to him. He met Luis Buñuel and García Lorca in Madrid in 1923. With Buñuel he made the staging of “The Andalusian dog” and collaborated, in the second period, on the L´age d´or. However, with García Lorca he had a very intimate friendship, how he proved in the tight correspondence maintained between 1925 and 1936. Until that moment, Dalí had not loved anybody in this form. During his years in Paris, he acquired the characteristics of the surrealism. His works in this period (1930) are inspired by the theories of Freud.
