Wrestle as the greatest as an stands alongside the lives. And. They tell them buy into an architect pokes and grins. Yes and florence and rome even today most people know his paintings his best known for his madonnas and its difficult cubits that out thought to be a bit kitson nowadays. The tina museum in austria saw a lot of great mass of f. It was. Even though most of his themes come from the bible raphael belong to a generation of artists who gave the biblical characters special vitality like the prophet elijah seen here even though he floats on a cloud toward heaven he still seems to be of this world. Human emotions also become tangible is this the holy family or rather a picture of father mother and child. Today its considered kitsch rafaels cupids and madonnas have been reproduced millions of times imagine these images were once new and radical. Rafael explored proportion gestures psychology and above all the idea of the divine god in order to find Something Like a universal measure of harmony and beauty. Now the albertine a museum in vienna is showing paintings as well as one hundred thirty drawings full of his searching. Mother and child no boring standard pattern but psychological studies curiosity shyness protectiveness and concern a mother who responds to her child. Not much is known about raphaels life but one thing is sure he was alone early on and orphan at the age of eleven. He depicts. Jesus as a child it plays something new with the time. And his contemporaries make the sacred part of the real world it becomes spontaneous and lively and at the same time thanks to its ideal composition it is more than that Michelangelo Raphael and eventually competed with each other and sought their own answers even exchanged designs and works with. Stuff in the hope that what raphael is all about that for a very short time hardly more than ten years he brought together the highest ideals and perfect. Raphael gave a drawing in which he said nature is imperfect and we must purify it through the ideals of the sculptures of antiquity. To him. Works you feel the body in motion. Amazement was a master at animating his figures by bringing their bodies and faces with gestures and facial expressions. Of a young man painted around fifteen fifteen a brief look back over his shoulder. Open alive. Just becomes an idealized disturbed inside but not branded a radical with ugliness. I think this is the thing i think that here in the twenty First Century its time to recognize once again a painter. And harmony beauty and composure and happiness find a form that is not hyper critical for. Sometimes you have to move away from the familiar order to see things afresh these drawings invite you to do so they show the. Creative process everything was new an experiment. The transfiguration his last work. In the lower dark part we see the emotional chaos of mankind. In the upper part jesus floating powerful and luminous. No one had ever seen it that way before. During his lifetime raphael looked at familiar topics in a new way. And today we should take the same approach with his works. Germany is known as the country of sausages and to be honest its not a cliche so some germans live of them theyre set to be one thousand five hundred types of the media treat weve got advice was allow me book was still have enough brute force cannot be a voice. So i go on the list is endless and those are just the normal sausages you can buy off the shelf we found a place where you can make your own d. I. Y. Sausages for sure its here in germany. Germanys first sausage studio is located on the edge of my soul town. And he is the inventor after i shot his Business Ideas to make it just with being. So he wants to teach people how to make their own sausages versts in special workshops. My philosophy is that you can decide for yourself what you want to eat maybe sometimes i want to do something crazy like try lemon grass in my sauce and john i want to each sage parmesan sausage. And these are things that my normal butcher doesnt offer. And if you want to try Something Like this for yourself then you should do it yourself and you can do that here. For the workshop kind of shot by squeezing his favorite but shop only the best quality meat. Yes six and a half kilos of one kind and two and a half kilos of the other. Perfect for. My sausage feelings i dont mean the feeling you get when you eat as many people misunderstand that i mean the feeling that you get when you actually create the sausage when a sausage comes to be so to speak. Thats a magical moment and to experience that is what i mean when i refer to the sausage feelings. To pass it on to others to inspire other people and thats an overwhelming feeling so sausage feelings. The next up is suitable for the whole family over friends or colleagues who want to make Something Special for the barbecue. For most people its the first time that they making their own sausages.

Big honkin sausage making is childs play and fun in the three zero zero workshop the participants learn how diverse the world of sausages can be. Twenty to thirty sausages are created by each participant. Really not too fast for. Us and of course tasting on the spot is a must look at that it really is one of a crime you cant buy one like it i could barbecue for another two hours but im hungry now.

Its time now for your mags which takes us today to iceland the country is known for its back taking landscapes with many of ok nose and springs we were invited to a house which was once just krongard bungalow but i may go over turn it into a modern home. Hello welcome to my house. Please comment. On it going to just bungalow in a suburb of the icelandic capital reykjavik is a modern concrete looking villa with a previous life. Like almost all the houses here it was built in the one nine hundred sixty s. And her husband have modernized the bungalow and renovated it and keeping with its surroundings. I enjoyed to stay here and all the lights and the nature to be in contact with nature here its very much a balance between inside and outside its very you feel very. Good connection and relaxed. The idea for the conversion came about in twenty fifteen at first ana only wanted to redesign the kitchen and dining room. But that led to a total conversion. Now the response of room for ana and her husband and their daughter who often visits. The first one we started really to break things down its like a journey you dont know where to where youre going because you never thought it there was so much. It turned out to be have to say that because it was all this more and more and more. But it was also fun to do it. Hardly anything remains of the old house this special furnishing was the idea of a construction worker during the renovation he had cut. One piece out of the bathroom wall to make a window and and from this piece he cut this out and got the idea to make this a laugh that this is really the only piece from the old house that reminds me of this is. The spacious open living space with many small cozy corners is a new feature. It includes a t. V. Corner in the heart of the house. And office space in the rear. There is a room with a fireplace on the lower level. The furnishings are a mix of souvenirs and functional furniture when it comes to interior design on a place is great importance on quality and continuity i think its good to keep her so mold. Pieces also yes for the past quarter the memories of the past you have. On his bungalow has three hundred forty five square metres of indoor living space. Remodelling instead of building a new proof the right decision in addition there is the newly designed outdoor area with the typical icelandic thermal bath. I was happy with my house before and so i looked just wanted to have a new way yeah i think youll see. From the house what you can and then you frankly on the facts and make them as you want to have it. The best and. A mix of old and new classical and modern the bungalow is now exactly the home. Always one. Here in germany seven million households have a dog for many owners they are a Family Member as they treat mans best friend like an old buying them accessories much more some even polish them maids ive seen this now theres even a cruise for. Offering the passengers on this cruise a spa area would be barking up the wrong tree after all most of them have. The green area that serves as a toilet is much more important to them some fifty dogs and their owners are enjoying a cruise on the rhine river k. Nine passengers are only allowed on the ship at the end of the season. The day before in cologne nearly one hundred passengers are waiting to check in. Miller and his partner goodwin hardy got their dog about a year ago because paddy now plays a major role in the couples life their travel plans have changed radically. Yes. Yes this is the first time weve looked at river cruz with a dog. We traveled further afield to the caribbean in the past but we dont really want to do that anymore so we both the dog last year and said if we go on holiday then we will always take the dog. Went and yes this is our first voyage together six miles of. The guests are welcome to board in the afternoon tour guide of a boy memorizes the names of many of the four legged friends he knows how important direct contact is. Possible really with the barber shop because they always look like this. But all i do is just its stressful for everyone to get the crew dogs its the first day but over the next few days well get to know each other better not just the owners but the dark students of old and also the moment. These well seasoned passengers from powder barn can now have their dog patty with them in their cabin the couple have paid around two thousand euros for the seven day cruise. For. Patty come on get in here come on look. Good as our id say its a bit simpler the cabins on the larger ships are a bit more luxurious. But well manage a visit over the next. The ship sets off for bond the passengers and their pets all gather in the saloon theres one rule on board animals have to be kept on the leash snow only a feeling of relaxation sets in. And the thought of that well i think its great he can stay with us he has other dogs to play with its fine especially now he has started to come down. From toys. Shortly afterward the first rush for the doggie lawn although many stopovers are included the dog still need to relieve themselves now and then on board. Instead of an entertainment plan or sports activities theres an animal trainer on this cruise who gives tips on how to train difficult for legged friends this is. This was all this is special spaces a bit limited of course youre used to running around outside with the dogs here we have to adapt a little to the circumstances but we can do a lot. To hide because. I think hes got to go out. Most of the passengers and their dogs disembark at the first stop over the pets head for a treat for a much needed pit stop.
