Compare And Contrast Homer And The Sower

The art work that is analyzed below is the “Noah Sacrificing Deluge” by Benjamin West. This particular painting was painted in the 1800s and the artist used an Oil Paint on a canvas. This art was 1 out of 36 in a series for the Windsor Castle in England. Mr. West lived to be 82 years old and was the first Americans to become a success on the foreign market. He would become a historical painter for King George III and president of the Royal Academy of Arts.

Howling Wolf and John Taylor both created amazing works of art. Most in particular would be The Treaty Signing at Medicine Lodge Creek. Both pieces portrayed similar content but the form and point of view was different. John Taylor was a journalist and Howling Wolf was the son of the Cheyenne Chief Eagle Head. Two men from very different cultures created images based on their knowledge of the event but in a style that represented their background.

The appealing factor of this paintings comes from its message and juxtaposition of colours and stroke

Poetry and a painting are both different. In poetry, we use our brain to read and we think about what the poetry means. In painting, we use our eyes to look at the painting, which is obvious. We evaluate the color, the background and so on. At the same time however, Poetry and painting are also similar.

The amount of similarities at hand are easily outnumbered by the amount of differences present between the two pieces. Even with the two paintings being created within the span of a year apart, they each have different styles. Titian’s Venus of Urbino, created in

All three artists uses the lines in weird directions such as crisscrossing and diagonal placements in both artworks. In the Blue (Crest), used different tints of blue and Vertigo, used different tints of orange giving two different views of the artwork. The blue used in In the Blue (Crest) helped with portraying the feel of water and the orange just seems as a color placed in the painting of Vertigo, even though with the lines it helps represents the chaos in the picture. They both were similar besides the dimensions, In the Blue (Crest) did give a different feel since it was three dimensional than the two dimensional

The other was commissioned by the government much later. This is a very realistically styled romantic painting using colors like black,

The impressive thing about these artists is their ability to use their art in different ways. To raise awareness, to advertise, political statements, etc. Their works meant so much to many people, even Rosalynn Carter, the first lady, attended Norman Rockwell’s funeral. The difference between these artists is shown in their style and their popularity.

Different governments, social structures, and customs for each. But they still had their similarities. Both had Christian themes in their art and had similar religious beliefs. The biggest similarity, however, is that they both lead to progression and changed the world. “Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.”

The works of art I chose to compare and contrast are Memento Mori, "To This Favour", 1879 by William Michael Harnett, and Bull Skull, Fruit, Pitcher, 1939 by Pablo Picasso. The symbolism behind these two paintings are very similar. There are also some similarities in the composition of these two paintings, but there are many differences in the composition of these two paintings. The first symbolic similarity is that these paintings have a meaning of death.

Taking art 1301 was one of the best decisions in my life, because I learned the true meaning of art, history plays a important part in art and there is art everywhere. I discovered that the art museum had so many great paintings and some of the artwork comes from the old times, like during the world war I and II , I did not know the museum would have amazing historical artwork. One thing I noticed is that some artist have created the same type of artwork they use one skill for all their paintings or statue for example Fred Wilson created the “ Were ancient Egyptians black,white,or brown” his artwork has the same faces created five time, but the only difference is the color of the statue. He used the same technics, which makes his art

Throughout this semester as a class we have gone over many different terminology, seen many artists from all different countries and time periods. We have also learned about different kinds of art and media that the Artist work with. Over the entire semester I have gained a greater appreciation and understanding for art. Taking all of the new information that I learned this semester I choose three pieces of artwork from the St. Louis Art Museum. Two are similar to each other and the other is very different.

In front, people can follow the direction of the river with combination of blue tones and white. Near of the river, people appreciate the mixture of yellows form the grass and the greens of the trees which project the importance of Pontiac as a protector of the valley. The artist represents the movement of the grass with tones of yellows and browns. On the top of the paint, people see the variance of white and gray on the sky as if the painter permits the audience to think about the manner in which Pontiac died. Farnsworth presents, in the painting of Pontiac, the movement with a variance of colors and tones which help the audience to follow the direction and gives texture to the valley which contrast with the Pontiac’s

In art, color is very personal and subjective, and gives different meaning to different people. However, in this Van Gogh piece, it is clear what the colors are used for. The blue found in the man’s overalls suggests uneasiness, melancholy and distress. Blue is unanimously associated with sorrow, and it is clear that in this piece, the subject is suffering immensely. The color is used to compliment the feelings the audience perceives from this artwork.

There is no source of natural light in the picture, and the direction of the artificial light is indiscernible. When a viewer first looks at the painting, they see the cow and man observing each other. Then, a viewer will notice the finer details of the smaller cow being milked, the man with a scythe in the town, and the sapling being held by gentle hands. The colors in the foreground are whites and greens, while in the background there are darker tones of green and black. The lines are curved and overlapping, suggesting wrinkles and folds in the cow and the
