Suppose someone asks you to paint a picture. “All right,”

you think. “No problem. I can fill the paper pretty easily.” But

what if the picture you are asked to paint is three stories high,

two city blocks long, and one block wide? In other words, a

total of 17,000 square feet! Most people would be

overwhelmed by the request. But not Diego Rivera.

Diego Rivera (1886-1957) was one of modern Mexico’s

most famous painters. When he was asked to paint this huge

picture, he knew he could do it. During his life, Rivera painted 124

frescos that showed Mexican life, history, and social problems. A

fresco is a painting on wet plaster (灰泥).

Rivera had to plan ahead and drew simply about what he

planned to paint. Then Rivera’s assistants would put all but the

final layer (层) of plaster on the wall. Next, they used sharp tools

to dig the outline of Rivera’s quickly-made drawing into the

plaster. Then, they made a mixture of lime (石灰) and sand and

spread this over the outline in a thin layer. As soon as this layer

was firm — but not dry — Rivera began to paint. Every morning,

his paints had to be freshly mixed. Rivera would paint as long as

there was daylight. He refused to paint under man-made light

since it would change how the colors looked. Sometimes, Rivera would say that what he had painted that

day was not good enough. Then he would insist that all the

plaster be cut off so he could start again! It took Rivera years to

finish, but this fresco is thought to be one of the greatest in the

world. The man himself is considered to be the greatest Mexican

artist of the twentieth century.

24. What would most people think about the request of

painting the huge picture?

A. It is possible.

B. It is pretty easy.

C. It is interesting.

D. It is too difficult.

A. how Rivera mixed different paints

26. What can we learn about Diego Rivera?

B. He liked using light in his paintings.

C. He preferred quickly-made drawings.
