Medusa is a monster from Greek myths with snakes for hair, and anyone who looked at her turned to stone.

Take a few minutes to look over the accompanying image, Blind Homer and His Guide. It was painted in 1875 by a leading member of the French École des Beaux Arts,or School of Fine Arts, William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825-1925, France), and serves as a good example of the kinds of paintings made in Europe during that time. We might wonder what a painting made more than 100 years ago in a foreign country could have to do with us today. The French Academic artist Bouguereau’s painting is more than a literal presentation of a forgotten moment in ancient history. The painting challenges viewers from every age to go deeper, to see the symbolism behind the history. Homer, who is thought to have lived around 1000 BCE, was the chief poet of the ancient Greeks. Ancient Greek ideas about social roles and the nature of virtue come to us in part from Homer’s epic poems the Illiad and the Odyssey. In Bouguereau’s painting, Homer symbolizes civilization and culture. Homer wanders blindly through a savage wilderness with only a youth to shelter him. In this way, Bouguereau implies that a wilderness can be not only physical but also cultural, and in that sense, all of us wander through a wilderness that threatens the human spirit found in culture. His painting asks the question, “How are cultural values carried forward?” ("What's Art?")

From the passages with the stories of Zeuxis and Parrhassios AND Bouguereau’s Blind Homer write down art words

Do you agree with Tolstoy that art is “communication of feelings”? Is cooking an art or a craft? What is more important for a guide: facts or feelings?

When giving a presentation, two objectives must be pursued: transmit information and prevent yawns. To achieve this, it can be a good practice to create an outline and use words that are burned into the audience's memory.

Visual content is a transversal, universal language, like music. We are able to understand images from millions of years ago, even from other cultures. We better grasp visual content. Visual content is associated with cognitive and psychological mechanisms. Things enter through the eyes; the first image is what matters. We associate visual content with emotions. Our brain is prepared to consume visual content. Some data: 90% of the information we process comes through sight, and we process visual content up to 60,000 times faster than text. That's why visual communication is more effective.
