    The sheer anguish, grieve and the indescribable pain written all over the faces of Ugolino, his two sons and two grandsons in this amazingly sculpted artwork captures your imagination and gets you having a whole lot of questions to ask the first time you set your eyes on this masterpiece at the Metropolitan Museum. It’s location in the hall cannot be missed because it is literally positioned in the center. The “Ugolino and His Sons” master depicts Ugolino grieving in melancholy gnawing on his fingers with his sons and grandsons calmly pleading with him that he eats them instead. It shows the imprisonment and starvation of Ugolino who according to Dante’s poem Inferno. I chose to write about this masterpiece by Carpeaux because I was very interested and curious to research about the main idea behind it. The mere sight of the artwork tells a lot even though you may not know anything about it.…

    The power of lighting has been used for many years by various artist. The girl’s eyes are illuminated in the painting which draws attention to them. Also, the nontraditional lighting may catch people off guard and make the painting stand out from the crowd. The rest of the painting is dark. This adds to the mysteriousness and eeriness of the painting. It also contrasts amazingly with the girl which again draws more attention to her. The only sources of light are held in the girl’s hands which, once again, draws more attention to her. The use of lighting draws attention to the girl as she hold the source of light and is the only thing illuminated by it.

The dark background adds to the eeriness, mysteriousness, and the contrast of the painting which might make the viewer feel a bit threatened while at the same time interested and curious - urging them to buy the…

    Bassano's Last Judgment

    At first glance it was pretty easy for me to see this piece’s relationship to Christianity and the event that it depicts. The painting, to me, appears in 3 sections: the central and most eye drawing section on top, the middle section, and the bottom section. The top section depicts Jesus of Nazareth basked in a glowing light holding a white flag of salvation while a man, most likely his father God, floats above him. He is surrounded by angels and pure followers of Christ at, what the title suggests, is the last judgment. This section is the brightest and most eye catching part of the painting due to the well played contrasting colors surrounding it. All other parts following this are duller and darker in color and really help to create a glowing light in the darkness effect for this top portion.…

Everyone seems to belong in the painting and also even communicating together. The social class was an upset balance to systems in the past even causing revolutions like the French Revolution of 1848 where peasants created an uprising to kill all filthy rich family including children.

    Moreover, it aims to reveal the consequences of the stigma associated with depression and those suffering from it. Divided into two ‘worlds’, the black on the right represents the loneliness and gloom that often accompany depression. It symbolises death in the form of self destruction, with the darkness and solidity of the colour signifying a distinct barrier and segregation from the ‘outside world’ resulting from the stigma. The grey prison bars behind which the figure sits portray the idea of institutionalisation, and the way in which it traps those suffering from depression, disabling them from reaching happiness and freedom, namely, the yellow side. Evidently, the yellow side is in open space, signifying a life that allows self-governance, unlike life in a total institution (i.e. psychiatric hospital). The painting also incorporates three stick figures, with two that are sitting in opposing sides of the canvas, pulling the figure in the middle by a rope to their sides; either to happiness (yellow), or depression (black). It can be seen that the limbs of the middle figure are reaching out towards the yellow area, however, their body is distinctly towards the black side. This signifies the desire of depression sufferers to reach contentment, but the inability of their mind and body to do so.…

    I believe this painting shows a loss of identity. This is the reason I chose this as my favorite piece of art, because I can relate to it. There came a time in my life where I was struggling with my own identity. In today's world it is very significant to identify oneself with at least one thing (ones ethnicity, nationality, race, religion, or a particular belief). Many people still grapple with the notion of identity in many countries, regions, and various ways in order to fit or adapt into any environment (social, economic, cultural, political, etc). One’s identity determines ones position or situation in society wherever one lives. However, finding the right type of…
