    Travelers among Mountains and Streams is comprised of several design elements. Form, leading lines, and shape. These design elements move the eye throughout the painting in a continuous interaction between the elements. Each section is well balanced and rich in content. The large mountain in the foreground sets the foundation for the painting by serving as a barrier, keeping the viewers eyes from leaving the page. The area showing the travelers moving in the stream sets a sense of motion, engaging the eye to travel through the painting. The grand scale of all the elements inspire the viewer to be transported into the realm of fantasy promoted by Northern Song painters. The painting takes on a naturalistic feel that is derived from the combination of paint, ink, and silk. The people and mules moving through the stream bring a sense of scale to the painting. They are an important element in that they are in direct comparison to the large Mountain. The helps promote the idea that there is something bigger than all of of us and that humans are somehow spiritually connected to the earth. An important idea that Northern Song Artist aspired to communicate through ere work. The painting is done in a realistic approach yet is not set in a specific place further enhancing the dream like quality meant to promote spiritual communication and enlightenment.

The human and animals traveling through the stream give the…

    The term ‘Baroque’ is used to describe the period of artistic style that began around 1600 in Rome and spread to most of Europe by the 1750s. It uses exaggerated motion, vivid, simple and easily interpreted detail to produce drama, exuberance, tension, and grandeur. It is evident in sculpture, painting, architecture, literature, dance, theatre and music (Wikipedia 2017). There are many great examples of sculptures from the Baroque period. When I first saw the sculpture, Truth Unveiled by Time by the Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini, who is “undoubtedly the most important sculptor of the Baroque period” (Wikipedia 2017), I was amazed by the dramatic effect it had.…
