The Mona Lisa,one of the world's most famous paintings,has been recreated with 3,604cups of coffee-and 564pints of milk.The different colors were created by adding no,little or lots of milk to each cup of black coffee.
The recreated Mona Lisa measured 20feet long and 13feet wide.It took a team of eight people three hours to complete the work.It was created for The Rocks Aroma Festival in Sydney,Australia,and seen by 130,000people who attended the one-day coffee-lovers event.
Elaine Kelly,one of the organizers from the Sydney Harbor Foreshore Authority,was delighted with the result.She said,"Each coffee cup was filled with varying amounts of milk to create the different shades(色度) of the painting.We wanted to create an element of surprise and a sense of fun in the way we communicated with the public."
"Once we had the idea of creating an image(像) out of coffee cups we searched for something iconic(有代表性的)to reproduce(复制).And after some time we chose the most iconic painting in history.The Mona Lisa has been reproduced so many times in so many different mediums but,as far as we know,never out of coffee,"Kelly continued."Besides,the idea is practical."
"It was fantastic.It really looked like the famous painting-the Mona Lisa.It was wonderful,"said one visitor.
After much planning it was great to see it coming together so well and the 130,000people who attended the event certainly enjoyed it and were deeply attracted by it,"said Kelly.
