Kate Winslet’s Nude Drawing from ‘Titanic’ for Sale

-



Record-breaking romance Titanic launched the careers of its stars Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio, and gave director James Cameron the means to begin work on what would become the even more record-breaking Avatar. And what was it that made Winslet and DiCaprio stars? It could’ve been “I’m king of the world!” or “I’m flying, Jack.” It could’ve been the incredible special effects that went into the sinking of the Titanic. But it was probably Winslet’s nude scene.
Now, someone will own a piece of movie history, as the nude drawing that Jack sketches of Rose was auctioned off last weekend. The scene is handled with tenderness and class, and represents a big moment of trust for socialite Rose and poor artist Jack; she says, “I want you to sketch me like one of your girls. Wearing this.” (Meaning, the Heart of the Ocean necklace.) “Only this.”
I always knew that DiCaprio didn’t actually sketch the drawing, but it turns out that it was Cameron who drew it; those are his hands you see moving over the paper. The sketch was expected to pull in up to $16,000, but no word on the exact price for which it sold.

I am Clara, originally from Spain, but spent a semester abroad in China on University of Nottingham Ningbo. As a student there I benefited from many things that I couldn’t have possibily learned in my home university. Studying abroad is a decision that requires courage.

From culture, to future job perspectives and of course achiving a higher level of mandarin I guess that most people try to work or study in China due to job opportunities. In this sense, it is indeed a country where engineer students will get the best formation possible, along with some experience, as in many universities there are interships programs. For example, University of Nottingham has links with many important companies like Huaweii or Microsoft. Also, it has many power in bu

  https://www.istudy-china.com/    Related What are the advantages and disadvantages studying in China? Hello! My name is Clara and I am a former student of University of Nottingham Ningbo. I was an exchange student and lived in Ningbo for several months. So, I learned plenty of things. Even though, I bring with me positive memories, I also carry some downsides. China is a very complex country. It’s like going on a boat on a peacuful river and occasionaly having to dodge the obstacles in your way. Sometimes it’s just a rock and sometimes it’s a big current. Along with this metaphore, I have an interesting story that happened in Guillin. We were riding it’s famous river, going along the water in a bambu boat. When suddenly, another boat came too close to us. The driver dodge the boat but one of our chairs, fell in the water. It was very poetic to observe how the chair was submerging into the water bit by bit, and we could not do much about, as the current of the river moved us forward.
