Answers
Answer:
1)Ans Be collected.
No more amazement. Tell your piteous heart
There’s no harm done. (I.ii.)
Following the violent tempest in Act I, Prospero tells Miranda to calm down and assures her that no real harm has been done. He’s not exactly right. Even though no one died, the storm clearly had a traumatic impact, both on the individuals who were shipwrecked and separated, and on Miranda as well. Prospero’s claim that “There’s no harm done” indicates a failure of empathy that will only become clearer over the course of the play.
2)Ans.First, Iris enters and asks Ceres to appear at Juno's wish, to celebrate “a contract of true love.” Ceres appears, and then Juno enters. Juno and Ceres together bless the couple, with Juno wishing them honor and riches, and Ceres wishing them natural prosperity and plenty.
3)Ans. Venus, Adonis and Cupid is a painting created c. 1595 by Annibale Carracci. The painting is in the Museo del Prado, Madrid. Annibale Carracci was one of the most well known Italian Baroque painters of the seventeenth century. The Carracci brothers established an academy of art called Accademia degli Incamminati, which pioneered the development of Bolognese Painting.[1] Annibale Carracci and Caravaggio were among the most influential artists of this century, who through their unique artistic styles led to the transition from Mannerist to Baroque. Annibale was born in Bologna in 1560 and died in Rome in 1609.
The painting entered the Spanish royal collection in 1664.[2]
Venus, Adonis and Cupid illustrates the influence of painters such as Titian, Correggio, Veronese, as well as ancient Greek sculptures. Venus, Adonis and Cupid has three main figures, arranged in a forest landscape: Venus holding Cupid who points at her and Venus looking at Adonis across from her as Adonis looks back. Adonis is accompanied by his hunting dogs as he moves the tree branches and reveals Venus. The painting is arranged diagonally, with loose and fine brushstrokes giving it a naturalistic look. The colors are muted throughout most of the piece but vivid in the figures, drawing the viewer's attention. This composition is influenced strongly by Veronese.
