II. Изложение нового материала (строится на основе Web-сайта «Folk art and crafts», Приложение 1).

1. Matryoshka (Страница сайта)

1) A wooden girl in a brightly patterned sarafan and a kerchief is the most popular souvenir from Russia. The name Matryoshka came from the common Russian woman’s name Matryona. But the idea came to Russia from Japan at the end of XIX century.

The doll splits in two and another girl reveals, then another and another.

Most dolls have 5 to 7 pieces but some sets are really big and have 30 or 50 pieces. The biggest piece is 1 metre high and the smallest is 1 centimeter high.

Some of them represent characters from Russian literature, fairy tales and politics.

The most famous schools are: Polkhov Maidan, Semyonov, Sergiev Posad and others.

T. What did the name Matryoshka come from? How many pieces are there in each doll? What do artists paint on them? When did M. from our republic appear?

2. Lacquer boxes. (Страница сайта)

Lacquer boxes originated in later XVIII century and are among the most splendid and distinctive of Russia’s achievements.

The articles, are made of papier-mache' and are decorated with miniature painting, which brings real value to the boxes.

There are 4 main centres of this art: Fedoskino, Palekh, Mstera and Kholui.

The technique needs a lot of time and efforts. Sometimes it takes two years to produce one box.

Most boxes are decorated with depictions of domestic everyday scenes, but there are also historical and mythological subjects, landscapes and portraits. The most favorite subjects are rides.

T. What makes the boxes valuable? Where are they made ? What do the artists paint on them? (How do the artists decorate them?)

T. shows an album «Русская лаковая миниатюра», Москва, «Согласие» 1994 г.

2. We have a craftsman from Fedoskino. He will tell you about the technique of producing lacquer boxes. (Подготовленные заранее монологи)

Listen to him attentively and answer the question: Why are these items called laсquer boxes?

Tecnique of lacquer boxes.

It takes sometimes 2 months to make a lacquer box of paper-mache. Thin sheets of cardboard are shaped in different forms: oval, round, square, rectangular and glued together. Sometimes craftsmen use 12 layers. Then they are dried for 3 or 15 days, after that they are placed in linseed oil bath for a day. Then masters dry them in oven for 2-3 days at the temperature 100 C. After that each box is covered with 3 layers of oil paints. Each layer is dried for 1 day. Then they are polished and covered with lacquer. They get their names from many layers of lacquer that provide a stunning shine to the box. Boxes are extremely well crafted. Many artists prefer to paint on paper- mache boxes because this material isn’t influenced by atmospheric changes and avoid cracking.

T. Now an art consultant from Palekh will tell you the secret of miniature painting.

Listen to her attentively and answer the question: Do artists of the schools use different oils?

Painting on lacquer boxes.

But it’s the miniature painting that brings real value to the boxes and pins. It sometimes takes a year to paint a miniature on it. Artists must be patient to spend long hours working on small intricate sections of their composition. They use strong magnifying glasses and fine brushes made of squirrel’s tail. Painting is made free-hand. Palekh painters use tempera, an egg yolk and add water with vinegar. Artists from Fedoskino, Mstera and Kholui use oil paints. When painting is finished the gold work begins. Then they polish it with a wolf’s tooth which is remarkably smooth.

One can’t help admiring those beautiful breathtaking miniatures. People call them “small miracle of Russia”. They are charming and attractive.

I have found a very interesting poem to sum up the theme of our lesson:

Одной земли огромной дети,
Мы – дети множества земель,
Своя у каждого на свете
Особенная колыбель,
Свои холмы, путей излуки,
Неповторимый свой язык,
Тревоги, горести и муки,
Характер, поступь, посвист, лик…
…Узнать, таков закон природы,
И человек не виноват,
Когда народы и народы
Друг в друга пристально глядят…
И, может быть, проникновенье
В иную жизнь, во нрав иной
Таит надежду на спасенье…
Cпасенья жаждет шар земной.
Л. Васильева ”Встречи с Британией”
