Reb Saunders raised his son in silence in an effort that his son would feel pain, and thus have compassion for others. Although Reb Saunders is a great man, he is not easily understood, like Mr.Malter claimed in “The Chosen.” Unlike Reb Saunders, Michelangelo is not difficult to understand.

Dorothy Allison reminisces how she saw a painting of Jesus when she was a child. Allison was amazed in wonder. She said, "art should surprise and astonish, and hopefully make you think something you had not thought until you saw it." The rose that grew from concrete makes me contemplate
For example, in a series of poems found in the Song of Songs, passion between unmarried people is presented. In addition, sexuality is present in all art forms. In his sculpture, “The Ecstasy of St. Teresa”, Bernini depicts Saint
Opposing protesters aren’t understanding exactly why Colin is protesting. Colin’s protest is liked by many people in America. He is trying to bring awareness of injustices for everyone around the world. Those issues need to be fixed and addressed.

The mood of this painting is nurturing and humble. The painting is more life like the any other portrait of Mary and Jesus because Jesus does not have a halo on his head and his
Though separated by more than a century and the hands of two different certifiable artistic geniuses. Michelangelo’s David and Bernini’s The Rape of Proserpina are both similar in medium but vary vastly with their meaning. These differences can be identified and analyzed through the iconographic method. If one looked at The Rape of Proserpina, a large man, a petite woman and three-headed dog could quite easily be spotted.

This decision may be because this piece is heavily dependent on its process; whereby the focus of the work was the act of gently and tenderly defacing busts of herself whilst also hinting at an underlying sensual nature. Due to the nature of the self-portrait, the work is inherently about identity and how Antoni
Through his image of divinity, he demonstrates to the observers the order of heaven and where the observer fits in this photograph.

She has been made property and this branding has become so enduring, that she is still seen as his today. The eroticism in this painting is also evident with her fully displayed breasts which contrasts with her status in life especially as one involved with a member of the Medici family, one must have been of high status and class to be so closely tied with the family and the depiction of her here
Throughout my observation of the painting, Girl with a baby among birch trees, I was able to view Paul’s resentment of the expectations of the women during her time. Seeing that I recognized the function and purpose of her work of art was to have Self-Expression. It was clear that the baby could not have been hers, since she died of childbirth, yet Paula put herself into everyone situation at the time. Still created paintings of herself bearing other women’s problems. The technique that Paula used to gain the appearance she received was interesting to distinguish.
Mary holds her son on her lap looking over his wounds and dead body. This is a very inspired piece of art work. Mary looks young holding her young son trying to comprehend his death.
