Giant Butterflies Symbolism

I think the artist is able to communicate the bad condition of the ship and its crew is in. The mood of the work is scary and gloomy. The design and intensity of the waves, the changing weather, and the ships in the ocean seem to make the scene come alive. It really conveys a since of naturalism in the painting the way it depicts the environment around the ship.

I like this painting because of the feeling and memories it reminds me of. The water and rocks remind me of all my childhood memories of swimming in the water and hiking mountains. The bright and light colors create a cheerful and

As the great Arnold Schwarzenegger once said, “Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.” The book In the Time of the Butterflies is about a family of four girls who are living in the Dominican Republic under a very dangerous dictator. They rebel against him and the government to join a revolution along with many other people from the Dominican. In In the Time of the Butterflies, Julia Alvarez uses the characterization of Patria to demonstrate the danger of passive religious belief.

The visual’s background is formed by a dark and starry night sky; stretching across the image and transitioning into a sunny day sky. This is a representation of the passage of time, life, death, and the power of memories. The nighttime depicts ageing and adulthood, whereas the daytime represents youth and life. In the poem, the narrator describes the sky, ‘Ambiguous night, ambiguous sky,’ which is symbolic for the transience between adulthood and childhood. An ambiguous sky is a sky which is unclear or undecided. The faded transition from the night sky to the day sky reflects this notion and the uncertainty of memories; displaying how the poem

Common themes that were seen in the Romantic era, which spanned from the end of the eighteenth century to the beginning of the nineteenth century, were naturalism, Gothicism, emotionalism, and exoticism. Salve Ship definitely portrays some, if not all, of these themes. The most obvious used theme would be emotion. Turner is clearly trying to get an emotional response out of his audience with such a dark and dramatic subject matter in this piece or art. It would be very hard not to have high emotions when looking at it.

All of the elements in the painting set the mood of sadness as the Indians meet their inevitable end. In the painting there are representatives of different Indian tribes and a diverse age of individuals ranging from infants to elderly, all at the brink of the ocean with the sun setting in the distance. The setting for the painting could not be more perfect as the sun sets to signify the end for the few who have not surrendered and gone to camps

This painting by Leonardo Bazzaro symbolizes the poem in a way that no other painting can do, the pain and despair that goes into every word of the poem is reflected on the faces of those on the canoe in the painting. It brings in all of the aspects of the highs and lows of each stanza. They are taking a moment, a precious heartbeat of their time while the sun slowly sets into the horizon to think, to say a prayer. As the woman bows her head to take a moment to collect and compose her thoughts, a flood of emotions rushes through her and she takes a minute to realize that even her darkest days she must praise. Even though

Rafael Trujillo’s dictatorship lasted for nearly 30 years. His reign brought destruction and death to many people living in the Dominican Republic as well as its neighbor Haiti. In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez depicts the story of the mirabal sisters who were living during the time of Trujillo’s regime. The Mirabal sisters were women who tried to fight against Trujillo’s evil ways and ended up being murdered because of his thirst for power. Trujillo’s reign began in the 1930’s and ended in the early 1960’s. The story’s setting takes place in the Dominican Republic during the 1950’s and follows the transition of the Mirabal sisters from young girls to powerful females. Symbolism is found in every chapter of the novel Alvarez

The Disney Cruise Line also utilizes the rhetorical appeal of pathos in almost every one of their pictures to appeal to the reader’s emotions. Most of the pictures that are shown throughout the book contain elements that relate to people having a good time and smiling. For example the first page of the booklet shows several families gathered together to watch fireworks on the deck of the ship. This image appeals to the reader’s emotions as the reader sees several families having a good time and truly enjoying themselves. Seeing a large group of people so ecstatic, the reader cannot help but feel happy as well.

This painting, titled Above the Boat, depicts a scene from Part three Chapter two of One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest. This painting shows the dark, dreary, overcast sky looming over the patients’ boat. Specifically, it shows the part when Chief Bromden does not believe he is laughing with the group and instead feels as though he is floating about the boat looking down upon the patients. The gray sky is accompanied the rough ocean waves fading into black. Since Chief is retelling this story, the bottom of the painting fades from black into the scene o show how his memory is recounting the event. In the massive ocean, a small boat is drifting in the rapid waves, and a small silhouette of Chief can be viewed. Above the boat is Chief’s hallucination/spirit

Red appears to dominate the painting and serves as an eye-catching color. The use of intensely saturated colors draws the attention to the front couple. Additionally, the red color plays with the mind of the onlooker without them thinking about it. It suggests deep passion, anger, and struggle. The artist intends to relay his feelings about the event to the viewer. His outlook consists of disgust towards the great depression that leaves many taken advantage of due to desperation.

Another main focal point in this canvas was subject matter. This is where the objects or events are described. The artist gives us different objects such as the old couple seems displayed as depressing. Or you can observe it as normal couple, walking across the river, enjoying the night. He also gives us a boat which could possibly be giving us a correlation because the boat looks like it’s broken or about to sink. There is also another interpretation with the object that Van Gogh displays which is, the stars. Depending upon which way you want to take it, they look like flowers or fireworks. Also, there is a sense of false appearance with the houses. If you stare at just the bank you will notice that it is just a bunch of bright lights but if you pay attention to the water close to the bank, you will acknowledge the darkness or shadow of the houses.

This painting shows how close and codependent humans and nature were. How well humans worked together with one another and their world. How peaceful those that are close to nature are, which is why it (nature) must be celebrated and appreciated.

But even the men in the white tank tops with more flesh exposed, their hats are fine, and their body language is relaxed and do not portray that of a servant. I noticed the sail and row boats in the distance, the women surrounding the table; laughter, wine and company, and obvious friendship, but maybe also boredom. Was this a pre or post boating trip as the title hints? Was this painting staged, or maybe even a band and live music playing to the side? After closely looking over the portrait, what is most interesting to me is that contrary to the large number of people in the painting, no one’s gazes meet, showing no connections between the people, although most are smiling.

There are three themes that are used throughout the reading which are; love, beauty, and death. The most important theme in this story would be beauty. When the husband gets so attached to his art work he forgets about the beautiful wife he has of his own and only thinks about the beauty of this portrait. Love is also showed in this story but by the wife. The wife is so in love with her husband she is willing to do anything and everything to make her husband happy. Which is not getting in the away of him painting his picture. The last theme would be death even though this is a major theme it comes last. After the husband not realizing the actual beauty and love the
