Kathe Kollwitz: A Brief Biography

The theme in this poem shows this mother in many ways, is mourning the loss of children aborted for whatever the reasoning. This is known by the statement made in line 22 “Believe that even in my deliberateness I was not deliberate”. She also mourns the loss of things that will not reach their potential, such as the sound of a babies’ cry, and voice or even the loss of tears. Another conflict that emerges in the poem is the desire of the mother to do what is best for her children and the finality of her decisions.

To begin with the analysis, we must look at the general shape of this piece of art is very 2D meaning its flat and it has some well-defined lines. As you look at it you can see that it is not balanced and not proportionate. The subjects are identifiable. There are three people in this piece of work along with a dog. As you look at it you can see a mother and her two children and their family dog. One child is sitting on the dog and the other girl is looking ar her sister while the mother watches them closely. You can clearly see a narrative being portrayed on the canvas because the two girls are looking at one another. The style is realism because their features are not over drawn to exaggerate a body part. The title relates to the piece of art because it’s a picture of a woman and her children. The message is conveyed very clearly and the style is very realistic looking.

At first sight, the painting viewers would realize a young girl floating in the water while she is crying. Viewers may see the painting has been created my hands after spending little more time looking at the painting. This painting is nice because it’s detailed, designed, colored in a nice manner. One does not understands painting much, may has a good understanding of this unique design. Her face is floating on the water as tears streams down on her cheeks while her eyes are closed simply shows the young women heart is

The spacing and structure of the poem is set up to allow flow and momentum in the poem and its narrative. The speaker’s voice is present with emotion as emphasised in a natural rhythm of thought offering an honest and bare interpretation of motherhood. The open “blank space” of the poem encourages a calm and breathy atmosphere, fulfilling a mood of tranquility and bliss. Each stanza is short with a couple quick fragmented thoughts before closing each section with the power of a single word. Each stanza breaks apart a separate thought filled with a loving passion the speaker uses to stress the beauty, wonder, and over-flowing love present in motherhood. To better the structure, the poem itself is broken into three parts, each representing a stage of motherhood. The first segment of motherhood that is represented is during the moments while the baby is still in the womb and the mother waits in anticipation for the baby to arrive. This “honeymoon” phase is expressed with a tone filtered through a perception of rose-coloured glasses and excitement as the mother is in utter bliss to carry a life into the world. The

His frustration is visible in the expression on his face. He appears tired of her bothering him about it, hence the hand. The child is showing a lot of white which can represent faith, I think the artist did this to say that the baby is giving the family faith because they are trying to provide for their child and in order to do that they need to be able to put food on the table which won’t just only help the baby but them as a whole. The woman may also symbolize strength that’s why the artist made her dress and lipstick red; she’s fiery. She may help the husband maintain his sanity no matter how many problems they are going through as a family.

The viewer can see and feel the bond between the mother and the child. I also think the artwork is beautiful and makes a deep impression on the viewer, because of the innocence and peaceful appearance of the infant. The woman has such an intense gaze with the way she is looking at the infant; it gives each viewer an opportunity to interpret it in their own way, concern or admiration, all part of motherhood. The woman’s body language is intriguing because she is replicating the infant’s arm position, maybe to find her own peace. In my search, I discovered that Berthe Morisot was a famous female artist in the 19th century, and in making a choice, this piece of art quickly caught my

Many artists use facial expressions in their figures to enhance the techniques used. The combination of the woman’s worrisome expression with the slightly distressed one of the baby helps reinforce the mood the use of color has already established. Because of this combination, the title Susan Comforting the Baby is clearly reflected in the work.

Built in 1989, this sculpture is a fine piece of art, as it commemorates the hundreds of thousands of immigrants who travelled across the southwestern border from Mexico into the United States looking for a new start and a life of higher quality post World War II. This single sculpture is of a man crossing the border while carrying a woman on his shoulders. Something that cannot be caught in the first glimpse, but has to be deeply looked into is that fact that the woman is bearing a crying infant in her arms, sheltering the child from harm, which relates to the situation.

Another attracting feature of this painting is that it appeals to your emotional side. Personally, I have an elder sister and we share a connection that is really rare. I have a picture of her, holding me as a baby with a huge smile on her face and this painting ultimately reminds me of that; giving me nothing but pleasant memories. That is what William is trying to do here. He uses the soothing and caring facial expression of the young lady together with the tenderness of the sleeping baby to capture his viewers and appeal to their caring and emotional side.

In this stylistic analysis of the lost baby poem written by Lucille Clifton I will deal mainly with two aspects of stylistic: derivation and parallelism features present in the poem. However I will first give a general interpretation of the poem to link more easily the stylistic features with the meaning of the poem itself.

Finally, the depiction of figure is perhaps the most interesting and intellectually challenging element in this piece. The figure, while emotionally withdrawn from the viewer, is physically imposing. She is looking down and away from the viewer, as if the isn’t aware that she is being watched. Her mask-like facial features also do little in the way of conveying emotion. Her body, however, is quite different. The dark thick lines shaping her muscles and limbs, the detail in the curls of her hair, the placement of her fingers, and her exposed breast all demand the attention of the viewers’ eye. The bold lines that define her legs, waist, and hip, make her seem intrusively part of our space. The awkward placement of her

The title of his artwork serves as an apology for those whom their relatives died. These artwork makes the tragedy memorable that the young innocents was once become a victim of the negligence and corruption of the government. However it may also cause to uneasy forgetting of that event for those who gain trauma.

Every camera shot traps her body, confining it as an image of objectification within the perimeter of the frame. Frozen in time¬, the body becomes paralyzed by the camera which reduces and pacifies it. In this state, the fixed image lies helpless, ripe for victimization. Photography, and—by extension—art, becomes associated with megalomania and a perspective of perversion within the scene. Once the last photograph of the woman is taken, the camera cuts to a close-up shot of the murderer unveiling a series of knives.

Through the use of powerful symbolism Kahlo has very successfully depicted this emotional struggle. The floating objects surrounding the bed that are being held by Kahlo hold great significance in this composition. The main image that is seen first the male fetus that is positioned directly above Kahlo. This baby, that is attached to Kahlo by an umbilical cord, represents the child that she had she always wished for. She had stated that she wanted to have a son with her husband, Diego, and they would call him ‘Dieguito’. Kahlo has said that the purple orchid in the bottom of the composition was a gift from Diego. Orchids were also a symbol of fertility and virility in ancient Greece. The snail in the top right alludes to the slow and painful process of the miscarriage itself. The harsh metal looking machine in the bottom left corner represents the operation that she had whilst in hospital and possibly the many other operations that she had following the near fatal accident in 1925. Finally, the fractured pelvis in the lower right corner represents the injury that she obtained to her pelvis which is what made it impossible for her to give

The art work tells about how a boy differ from a girl. The young girl is pointing the muscle of the boy where the muscle serves as the power, courage, dignity and perseverance. The girl should admire and see them as their soldier and protector to survive because they are
