On decay of the art of lying essay “On Decay of the Art of Lying” was‚ as the title suggests‚ an essay discussing the topic of lying. Mark Twain‚ who was the author of the essay‚ suggests that everyone is a liar‚ and that no one can go through life without lying even if they claim that they are completely honest. People lie everyday‚ every hour even without realizing that they are lying. The world would be a completely different place if people never lied‚ this wouldn’t necessarily be for the

The title of the artwork is an oil on canvas painting titled Bermuda Lovers. The date and the name of the artist was not given. I came across the painting at the Downtown Fullerton Art Walk where artists set up exhibits to display their work or have individual work shown in cafes. In what I believe is the Hibbleton gallery‚ the painting was hung on a brick wall painted grey with other artworks in close proximity. Its proximity with other attention-grabbing works made it difficult to invest my full

"Content‚ Subject Matter and Artistic Intentions” After reading the lecture I decided to write my thoughts on the art piece “A Bigger Splash” by David Hockney on page 69. No matter what the true meaning of a piece of art is you always having your own personal views and feelings toward.

A very fascinating mural called the "Going to the Olympics" by artist Frank Romero was displayed on a wall in the city of Los Angeles for numerous years. The beauty of his art roused countless other artists and proved to be one of the most beautiful works of art in L.A. Within the mural‚ Romero included significant factors that would show L.A.’s history with the Olympic games. For instance‚ the stamp commemorates the 1932 Olympics that was hosted in the city.

France’s rooster over Austria’s eagle was “…only the beginning of a catalog of allegorical correspondences to persons and recent political events‚ ingeniously conceived but nearly impossible to decipher without the guidance of a detailed inventory.” (Art in the Age of Revolution).
