For my first field trip assignment‚ I decided to go to the Philadelphia Art Museum. Believe it or not‚ this was my first time visiting this museum. By walking through the museum I saw some amazing paintings and sculptors. These artists were truly talented in what they were able to create. It was extremely difficult to choose a single piece of art and categorize it as my favorite. However‚ there were a few sculptors that left a lasting impression on me. The sculptor of the man nailed to a cross

The object that I chose to study is a board for the game of “Pegs and Holes‚” which I found at the Museum of Fine Arts. The game board dates to 2000-1500 C.E. and is from the Levant region in the Near East. The object itself is a stone board with multiple holes carved into the top. The pegs seen in the museum are reproductions of what would have originally been ivory pieces. Played by two people‚ the game’s objective seems to have been for a player to race their pegs through the holes and seize

Difference Between an Art Museum and Art Gallery Both art museums and public galleries present works of art to the public‚ exhibiting a diverse range of art from more well-known artists to emerging artists.

The True Purpose of Art Oscar Wilde was a very shrewd intellectual who through the teachings of Walter Pater and John Ruskin became a strong supporter of the aesthetics movement. This movement was one which wanted to shy society away from the fact that art had a purpose. They wanted simply to have art for art’s sake. In essence what this means is that art’s only true purpose is beauty and there are no underlying symbols‚ meanings‚ or derivations of art it is simply art. Oscar Wilde attempts to

In “Willy Covari (Brazzaville)” photographer Daniele Tamagni shows a very interesting character in the streets on Brazzaville‚ the capitol city of the Republic of the Congo. Tamagni created a series of images all depicting men in Brazzaville who dress up in eccentric clothes that contrast the grey poverty stricken world they live in. The photo itself is very aesthetically pleasing. The photo shows a crowded street‚ with decrepit buildings and people in regular every day attire. The man who is the

Over Thanksgiving break I attended The St. Louis Art Museum‚ or SLAM‚ as it is affectionately known by the locals. I focused on the Later European Art‚ especially from the Netherlands‚ because I find it captivating and unique. The first painting I studied was called Peasants Dancing in a Tavern by Adriaen van Ostade. The artwork was done in 1659 in the Netherlands as a genre scene. It shows a tavern scene in which peasants are dancing‚ drinking‚ singing and playing cards. It is a unique example
