Art can be describe and shown in many ways. When I look at art, I looked to see different types of painting, sculpture, or anything that is made out of any object that is creative. Princess Diana exhibit was a different type of art that I would never considers as being art. At the Museum of Art in Fort Lauderdale, "Diana A Celebration" displayed many collections of Princess Diana Family memorable items for the world to see. My first impression I had in my mind before visiting Diana A Celebration was to see beautiful painting or sculptures, but instead I walk into a room that portrayed as a biography of Princess Diana life. Visiting the Downtown Miami Museum kept a vision in my mind of traditional type of art. My mind has been closed minded as to what art is and what type of art is really considered art. "What art really is?" can be a question that is probably asked and can never be answered because of the different opinions about art. Generally, comparing to the Museum of Art in Downtown Miami and the Diana A Celebration exhibit, you can defiantly see the different type of Art and how it is presented.

Downtown Miami Museum of Art was more of a traditionally type of Art that many people will recognize first. The museum displayed many types of paintings that were drawn by famous artist. There was a beautiful arrangement out of mirrors that when you stood in front of the piece it presented many reflections of yourself. The collections of painting at the Downtown Miami museum made you step out of the box and think so you would try to figure out what the artist is trying to reveal in their paintings. Art to me should be like a brain buster trying to solve an unsolved mystery, a beautiful sketch, or a creative piece that have never been done before. However, at the Princess Diana exhibit, I learned more about her life, contributions, and death.

Princess Diana exhibit was a beautiful exhibit that displayed the time she was born, married, and sadly died. Princess Diana of Wales was born Lady Diana Frances Spencer on 1 July 1961 in Norfolk. Princes Diana was the youngest of four children and she had two sisters, Sarah and Jane, and a younger brother Charles. Princess Diana lived with her father and in 1975 the family moved to the Spencer family house in Northampton shire in English Midlands. Learning about the Spencer family, the beginning of the exhibit displayed the Spencer family crown royalties and jewelries. The Spencer tiara was one of the jewelry that was displayed. The tiara was in the Spencer family for many years since 1830 and Princes Diana worn the tiara on her welding day. There were many beautiful crowns and jewelry such as, brooches, rings, necklace, and much more. All of the Spencer family jewels were shinny, beautiful, and were blinding as the sun would shine in your eyes.

Secondly, many of Princes Diana childhood items were on displayed. The items were arranged to coincide with a projected screen that filmed Princes Diana early child hood. A stuff frog that Princess Diana slept with in bed and a red toy car that was from the Spencer nursery were children toys that portrayed the innocents and child like side of Diana. Although Princess Diana had many responsibilities being a Princess, she was once a child that was full of amusement and boo-boo. For example, a letter that was written by Princess Diana to her mom had a misspelled word. Princes Diana wrote mummy instead of mommy. There were many more items such as baby portraits, children passport, and even Princes Diana Ballerina shoes to show how much she loved to dance and her talent. However, Princess Diana has grown into a beautiful woman that felled in loved with Prince Charles of Wales.

Princess Diana Lady Diana Spencer married The Prince of Wales at St Paul's Cathedral in London on 29 July 1981. Princess Diana was secretly engaged with Prince Charles since she was 19 years old, the engagement was known to the public later after, and then she was married at 20 years of age. Portraits of Princess Diana and Prince Charles were shown to reveal the love and happiness among the two. One Picture that was taken by the lake with Princes Charles wearing Scottish attire, illustrated how the men once dress and the lake illustrated tranquility and harmony between the couple.

Princess Diana wedding was like a fairytale and any girl dreams come true. Princess Diana gown was of silk taffeta that forms the body of the gown and attached was a lace-trimmed train 25 feet long. Other items in the royal wedding display include Princess Diana's low-heeled silk wedding shoes, covered in hundreds of sequins and pearls, and a beautiful laced parasol that she was not able to wear because of the weather. The sad thing I found about her wedding dress was that her dress was ivory instead of white. Having to be such a young girl, married at a young age, I thought that a woman should be married in white to symbolize purity. This
