Google doodle celebrates leap year
Google's latest doodle celebrates the leap year
and Italian composer Gioachino Antonio Rossini's 220th birthday. The
doodle showcases four frogs, each closely associated to one of Rossini's
best-known comic-opera "The Barber of Seville'.
Gioachino Rossini, in full Gioachino Antonio Rossini (born Feb. 29, 1792, Pesaro, Papal States [Italy]—died Nov. 13, 1868, Passy, near Paris, France), Italian composer noted for his operas, particularly his comic operas, of which The Barber of Seville (1816), Cinderella (1817), and Semiramide (1823) are among the best known. Of his later, larger scale dramatic operas, the most widely heard is William Tell (1829).
Google doodles are the decorative changes that are made to the Google logo to celebrate holidays, anniversaries, and the lives of famous artists and scientists. The first doodle was created by Larry Page and Sergy Brin in the year 1998 to mark the celebrations of the Burning Man Festival. Google currently has over 1000 doodles. Google recently revamped its doodle site, which features largely all doodles created by the company. The website also gives a peek into the creative process that goes into creating these doodles.
