He was usually represented with a bunch of grapes and a staff wreathed with vine leaves and ivy. Celebrations in honour of Bacchus were called Bacchanalia. In ancient times, only women were allowed to attend these festivals. Other followers of the god included the satyrs, who were half-human and half-animal. Michelangelo created a statue of Bacchus in 1497. In his work, the god of wine seems a bit unsteady on his feet. A satyr appears behind him."

The weight of his body, which is meant in a contrapposto pose to find a centre of gravity, here shifts back and forth, with the head (and a rather comically undersized head at that!) tilted in one direction, the shoulders another, the pelvis yet another, and the legs ready to tumble out from under the staggering, inebriated god. This is a god who is standing up but is more probably about to fall down, a fact that is even structurally and formally incorporated into the entire sculptural ensemble: the wine god would, in fact, fall down if the figure were not buttressed by the presence of the little satyr behind, whose serpentine pose only emphasizes in its torsion the elements of suppressed movement contained within Bacchus himself".

It is a marble statue of 174cm tall, 195cm long 69cm wide, sculpted with a chisel and hammer. The statue depicts a scene after the crucifixion of Christ. This is his only signed work. We see little besides his signature on the banner across the blank. She has a Florentine style, so a style of the Cinquecento<sup>1</sup> as it has a taste for naturalism and interest in human and psychological truth. There are many folds on the clothes. The Virgin is seated. On her lap the dead body of Christ as an ''S''. This position is a sign of abandonment of the corpse. The sculpture forms a triangle, which symbolizes the holy trinity (father, son and holy spirit). Mary's face, is an expression of no pain, because it is home to human suffering, symbolised by Christ. She represents the Lord. His hand opened; it is an offering. This sculpture was made in one year.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: left;"><br />

The figure of Bacchus is created in design to regard Neoplatonists influences, Michelangelo was familiar with their ideas carefully. The David (1501-1504) and its turbulent history is detailed policy regarding the role played by them in the Florence of the early 16th Century. Similarities in Bacchus and David is also found in Matthew, a dichotomy, however, first as an internal issue and detached from the outer design. Michelangelo's figures are usually not in a natural freedom, they are rebelling against the prisoner or result in their fate.<span style="color: red;"> </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: left;"><br />

This successful marble sculpture was destined to be placed in the The Papal Basilica of Saint Peter (Italian: Basilica Papale di San Pietro in Vaticano (in the chapel of Santa Petronilla kings of France) - a Late Renaissance church located within the Vatican City. The Pietà of Michelangelo was born from a block of marble, where the artist represents the isolated figures of the Virgin Mary holding the body of Christ in her lap just down from the cross, according to an iconography that, at that time, had found wide acceptance. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 5pt 0cm; mso-layout-grid-align: none; text-align: left;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Verdana", "sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt;">Pietà has strong anatomical details and finishes of the drapes, accentuated with translucent effects of the way the light seems to caress the marble surfaces. One of the things that is important in the sculpture is the "very young" the artist wanted to give the face of the Virgin Mary, this choice, strongly criticised by his contemporaries, is justified by the abstract nature of the composition.

Also we need all the books and websites used during research to put on the presentation.

<ul><li>Although they did not apply to national conflicts (civil wars), both the first and second Hague Conventions on the conduct of war prohibit combatants from acting to "destroy or seize the enemy's property, unless such destruction or seizure be imperatively demanded by the necessities of war.", as well as "the attack or bombardment of towns, villages, habitations or buildings which are not defended, is prohibited."<i>(1899, the Second Hague Convention)</i></li>
<li>The Spanish civil war began in 1936, following an unsuccesful coup d'etat by General Franco against the elected government of Spain. The combatants fell into two loose camps: the "Nationalists", led by Franco, believed that Spain was in danger of fragmentation, as well as communist take-over; while the "Republicans" were chiefly united in their opposition of the Nationalists.</li>
<li>The Nationalist forces were supported by the fascist governments of Italy and Germany, who sent soldiers and equipment to help in the fight.</li>
<li>The Republicans were chiefly supported by the Soviet Union and Mexico, as well as Marxist organisations around the world. They were also supported by the "International Brigades", comprised of volunteers from around the world.</li>
<li>The Soviet Union supplied armaments and soldiers to the Republicans, including many generals and soldiers from the first world war who had been exiled by Stalin.</li>
<li>The German government supplied arms and military "advisors" including the "Condor Legion", which provided the majority of the Nationalist Airforce.</li>
<li>France and England agreed to prevent the supply of aid to the Republicans from abroad, although this did not affect the supply of aid from the Soviet union, Italy or Germany</li>
<li>Idealogically, the Nationalists were conservative, in favour of the status quo including democratic government and the power of the Catholic Church; the Republicans were progressive, containing socialists, communists and liberals. The Republicans also included ethnic groups seeking independence, such as the Catalonians and Basques, as well as Anarchists (who sought the formation of a perfect society in which no laws or government was needed)</li>
<li>The Town of Guernica was a Basque stronghold, and contained an oak tree under which the Basque parliment traditionaly sat.</li>
<li>General Franco ordered the attack upon Guernica following unsuccessful Nationalist attacks upon Basque held territories.</li>
<li>Following the attack upon Guernica, the Nationalist forces attempted to blame the attack upon so-called "Red" arsonists (republicans), however the Times Special Correspondent in Bilbao was actually machine-gunned by aircraft of the Nationalist Condor Legion when he went to view the aftermath of the attack on Guernica.</li>
<li>There was no military value in the attack on Guernica, it was a "terror raid" designed to undermine the Republican forces will to fight.</li>
