Still Life With Lobsters Analysis
The first image I chose is called Still Life with Lobsters it was painted by Anna Vallayer-Coster in 1781. This piece is oil on canvas. In this piece it shows a very pretty realistic painting. It has food on the table, and it looks like it could actually be a picture. It uses very earthy and natural colors. It looks pristine almost like it should be in a great castle or palace. This painting focuses on a focal point being the big red lobster. The lobster is clearly the focal point because every object around it is very dull and shaded green. The second painting I chose is called Sketch I for Composition VII and it was painted by Felix Klee in 1913. This painting on the other hand is very bright and colorful. You cant really tell what the

    Analysis 4.7 Salome With The Head Of John The Baptist By Aubrey Beardsley

    The image #4.7 Salome with the Head of John the Baptist, by Aubrey Beardsley was created in black ink with watercolor having a black and white theme, which made the overall composition decorative becuase of it’s distinctive style. Tropon by Henry van de Velde #4.9 was just an advertising poster with a specific touch of different patterns of colors with curving lines, which at the time was a pretty original idea for public exposure because he was able to express what he thought in a poster. As for #4.11, Detail of dining mural by Gustave Klimt was also a new work of art involving certain elements like pieces of metal, stones, or glass to create this staggering work of art creating patterns of abstract figures like a mosaic.

    A Review Of Tom Wesselmanns Great American Nude

    1. I would award Tom Wesselmanns’ Great American Nude painting for first place because the artistic form of colors are bright and full of life which leads me to believe that the artist that painted this picture also felt this woman herself was bright and full of life. But the woman still has a little bit of mystery which is why he didn’t paint a face on her. We can tell she lives a modern lifestyle because of the phone, perfume and flowers. For second place, I would award Giorgione, Sleeping Venus because the slumber way she lays makes it seem almost as though she is a goddess. This painting has a lot of detail and I can tell that the artist participated a lot of his attention and time to creating it. The third place…

    Pieter Bruegel the Elder

    Overall it seems like it’s a cloudy afternoon at the end of summer. There is no sun showing in the painting and the lighting is peculiar. Two colors dominate the wood, the green trees and the golden wheat. The contrast between them is so obviously. The colors in the painting are not so bright but rather muted due to the mysterious dilute light. is and an aura of activity can be felt from the colors for while a gold-like color dominates the wood, and the greens are saturated, there is dull quality as a result of the lighting-hence the contrast. In other words the colors are not bright but rather muted due to this mysterious diluted light. It seems like there is a fog hanging in the air but it also makes me feels unrealistic to happen in the afternoon.…

    Analyse and discuss the nature of three 17th Century still life paintings each by a different artist.

    The first painting that I am going to discuss is Clara Peeter’s ‘Still Life with Lowers, Goblet, Dried Fruit, and Pretzels. This was painted in 1611 measuring 64x89 cm, and was one of the first times that a female artist tried to compete with the male artists. In this respect, it really was revolutionary. These types of painting by Peeters were typically arranged on narrow ledges and viewed from low viewpoints, against dark backgrounds. She was famed for her ability to evoke a human presence through cut fruit, or partially eaten food. On occasion, she captured self-portraits on objects with reflective surfaces within…

    The Haywain Artist: John Constable

    Furthermore, the value in this painting seems to all over the place, but since there are clouds, most everything is shades of colors, except in the background where the sun is shining on the trees and bit of field, so that part of the painted is made of tinted colors. Now, onto the colors in the painting, they use two of the primary colors, red and blue, as well as one secondary color, green, this also uses multiple hues of the same color, blue and green; the value of the colors is there as well. Now, emphasis in the painting, the emphasis is on multiple things in the painting, such as the brick house to the left, or the wagon in the middle of the water, and the field and multiple trees to the right of the painting. The contrast in this painting is also very well done, because the kind of dull dark-ish colors are on the left leaning toward the middle of the painting, but the on the right side of the painting are the light…

    Hans Holbein Ambassadors Analysis

    In this painting there are a few visual elements that stand out. The first element that stands out the most would absolutely have to be lighting. Holbein’s shows an abundant of tenebrism. There are many places in this painting that shows tenebrism such as under the table, the two men’s clothing and around their feet, the left side of the skull and also in the folds in the curtain. The tenebrism helps makes the color be more vibrant, mainly the greens. Holbein showed a lot of visual texture in this painting mainly in the clothing the two men wore. The man to the right has a fur trimmed coat that looks to be super soft and the shirt he has on looks to be silk with the…

    Art Appreciation 2

    The first painting is by Lorenzo Lotto and is called Venus and Cupid and is oil on canvas painting and shows Venus sitting on a dark blue satin cloth with her weight resting on her arm. Her color is a pretty off white with a ribbon around her chest called diaphanous stophein which is worn by new brides. There is a brown shell hanging above her head which represents her birth from the sea and the flowers shown on the bottom half of her body represent a symbol of love. The head dress she is wearing is decorated with gems and pearls that rest perfectly on her red hair. She is holding a wreath with incense burning while cupid is peeing through the wreath towards her. Cupid is a short figure with wings on his back with brown curly hair with a devilish look upon his face. The room has red cloth drape upon the back wall that accent the painting with all the other colors in harmony. This artist was portraying love and marriage and the room was more than likely a bride’s chamber in this two dememenional piece of art and is representational of sexuality, vitality and happiness. This piece could be a little controversial and is truly in the eyes of the beholder.…
