A Picture To Remember.
Christina Rinaldi is the name of the main character of the book ‘A Picture To Remember’.
She is a young lady that works at the museum. Her appearance may be described as following: long dark hair (she wears her hair down), slim shape (she goes to the gym regularly- every day) “she was slim and pretty”. Her style in clothes is simple and professional (she often wears black and white: black trousers, black skirt, white blouse). She like drinking coffee (the author mentions that several times when talking of a small café next to the museum). Christina usually does not have breakfast, only on special occasion. She finds bread with dulce de leche (sweet condensed milk) delicious (which probably proves that she is on no-carb-diet). She does not smoke and use drugs (she took a painkiller when she had a severe headache only after an accident).
Work. Occupation. Christina is a young professional that works at theMuseo Nacionall de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires. She recently had been assigned for the new project, which involves working with Parisian Museum (her museum is going to have some impressionist paintings from Paris). She is very passionate about her job: she wants to go to work as soon as possible after the accident, and she is very eager to start working again.
She is an independent person who appreciates her freedom. There are some great symbolic details about that: we see it first, when she is riding her motorcycle and then , when she liked to feel the wind on her face and hair. She also enjoys summer. She is a straight forward person, the fact that she is riding a motorbike is just another proof. When she needs to walk, she walks very fast, other people have to almost run to be follow her.
Usual day.On weekdays she usually comes to work at 8.30, stays there until 4.30, then she goes to the gym where she spends around an hour or hour and a half working out.
Author mentions about her childhood. When Christina was 15, she and her family visited France. She went to the museums there and fell in love with Claude Monet’s painting (field of red poppies). That probably had a great impact on her future and decisions she made about her career (she works at the art museum). She even has the copies of the famous painting in her office and her bedroom.
Relationships. Christina Rinaldi is very close to her family: mother, father and brother. Once the author mentions her aunt and her uncle who were preoccupied with her health condition after the accident which says that she is probably close to them too.
Christina loves her family and cares about them. She does not want her father to know that she did not wear helmet (does not want to disappoint him). She stopped riding her motorcycle after the accident because her family did not want her to do it. Although she loves her lifestyle and that she is independent, she has her own apartment at the city, and she gets angry when her family being worried about her suggested her to move to their place. Christina’s mother took care of her anyway by bringing food over. She talked on the phone with her parents every day with both her mother and her father.
Personality. Christina Rinaldi is very determined, the example of which we can see at the episode when she works out at the gym and does not stop doing exercise even when it hurts already because she wanted to feel as good as she did before the accident.
She is very responsible and is not afraid to take the responsibility: went to the airport to meet the person even when her arm got injured and it hurt badly. In pite of all that have been said she remains a girl( wanted to look good even though she was in pain).
Christina Rinaldi is a very organized person : she wrote down a phone number from her note book in case she needed it. Also she had a piece of paper with the name of the person she was supposed to meet at the airport (there might be a lot of people there).
She is single and does not have children. And at the end of the story she fell in love with the Parisian man.
She does not have a lot of friends at the city, most of her friends are where her parent’s house is. Christina found Daniel (a guy from the gym) very pleasant person and she wanted him to be her friend.
You can see that the author likes the character very much and is very sympathetic to her. The author stresses Christina’s strong points every time she (the author) has an opportunity to do it. The author makes Christina’s personality very strong with some features that are usually common to man’s personality.

Christina seems to be a very intersting character. Independent, living her life the way she wants to, but at the same time still keeping close ties with her family. Even though she seems to be a little lonely, she makes the best of her life
ReplyDeleteThe author of this blog, really did a good job on describing Christina.:-)

ReplyDeleteI hope my future girl friend will have the same personality as Christine has. NO smoking and drug using. She can take care for herself, response for all her work(I hope housework can be one of her work too). Well, perfect lady and the most important thing is she didn't marry!
