The Charging Chasseur By Théodore Géricault

Daniel Ridgway Knight was an odd American artist who loved to paint relaxed French peasants in luscious landscapes. Ironically, he lived during a stressful time when the Industrial Revolution displaced numerous farmers and polluted the environment. He seemed to ignore the harsh truth and shut himself in his imaginary serene world. For instance, In the Premier Chagrin, translated as The First Grief, Knight paints two healthy girls conversing on a stone wall in front of gorgeous fields. At first, it appears as merely a pretty painting that is nicely contrasted to show depth and realism. Yet, with a closer look, this contrast in the colors and lines of the landscape and the figures creates tension to suggest the painter’s conflict between longing for serene freedom and feeling trapped within the stiff society.

This painting tells a sad story about a general who is willing to die for his citizens. This story also tells a hopeful story about unity between two completely different civilizations.

I chose to study and analyze J.M.W. Turner’s Slave Ship for this project and found it to be very interesting. Immediately while looking at the piece you get a strong sense of emotion and drama that is being portrayed. There is a lot of depth and warmth in the colors that are used and wide swift brush strokes to create the images. The first image that caught my eye was of waves crashing on the left side of the painting. The white tips of the waves are very noticeable against the softer shades of the ocean. Behind the waves is a ship which is the next part of the painting that drew my attention. The ship seems to be caught in the rough waves of the sea and barely able to keep afloat. There is a glimmer of light from the sun peeking through

In this paper, I will discuss Winslow Homer, The Gulf Stream, 1899, Oil on Canvas, 28 x 29 inches (Fig. 1). The painting is based on a man, who is in the middle of the ocean. This man is facing the difficult situation of a coming aggressive storm. His boat is broken and he is laying on the boat holding his right leg. His eyes are focus looking at the storm.

This paper can analyze the context within which the work of art, "Death on the Pale Horse" was created. The discussion also will determine the medium that the creator selected still as highlight a number of the additional fascinating aspects of this Benjamin West painting.

The article, “Gericult’s Severed Heads and Limbs: The Politics and Aesthetics of the Scaffold”, by Nina Athanassoglou-Kallmyer reasons that the purpose of Theodore Gericault’s paintings of severed limbs and decapitated heads was his way of criticizing 19th century policies about capital punishment.

Thanks to our obsession with technology everything is speeding up. However, we are not going in the right direction. It feels like our lives have turned into a race. There never seems to be enough time no matter how fast we go. As a result, speeding up is closer to terror than phenomenon.

Cole’s first major painting, “The Course of the Empire,” was a symbolistic illustration showing the five stages of an empire; which were the savage state, pastoral state, consummation of the empire, destruction, and finally desolation. The different canvases display the relationship between man and

The effects of slavery on the African American family were tremendous. From slave mother's and father's having their children taken away and sold, to brother's and sister's being split apart, to having the actual slave-owner being the one to father children with slaves, to even say that African American families even existed might sound ridiculous. But they did exist; it just depends on what you might define as a "family". Slavery did not weaken or dissolve the African American family. Instead, it brought all involved even closer together. I will discuss in this paper how for the author's of Incidents and Narrative, families were a driving force of their mission to free themselves. I will also discuss that for Douglass and Jacobs, no

Donald Trump’s Immigration plan is the opposite of any other immigration plan. Mr. Trump plans to build a wall/ fence along the US border. Donald Trump said “I will build a great wall - and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me- and I’ll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words” (Ortiz). If Donald Trump becomes president, his plan is to send all terrorists and immigrants etc. to return home and apply for reentry (procon.org). Donald Trump will upgrade all immigration laws.

Many attribute the evolution of the French revolution as the catalyst for redirection of the style of artwork from Baroque and Rococo to Neoclassical and Romanticism. Two leading masterpieces that support this aspect are respectively: Jacques-Louis David, Oath of the Horatii, (c. 1784) and Eugène Delacroix, Liberty Leading the People, (c. 1830). As commented in Essential Humanities (2016), the French revolution “in all its heroic glory and grisly destruction” (par. 10) is masterfully portrayed in Delacroix 's personification of liberty. In addition, the summons for commitment to the cause of freedom is classically rendered in David 's vow of victory or death. Within this essay both of these paintings are examined in regards to their connection to the French revolution.

Thus, three years later, in his first study painted for the Massacres at Chios, he takes the same pose with the bare shoulder, reversing it. He also changes the model. This time it is a young girl, but in both cases, the same exercise. Open mouth, upturned face, looking up, the man with his bare shoulder became a young girl, and the Girl in a cemetery will be the old woman of the Chios. However, before Delacroix, Géricault had already articulated the Raft of the Medusa composition around the expressive head of a young man, getting up in the middle, next to the mast - the best part of the painting according to Clément .

The painting depicts the abduction of Helen. Paris captures Helen and brings her to Troy. The ship in dock suggests Paris travelled a great distance to find Helen. The men in the center appear to be quarrelling. Several men are holding spears and swords.

He studied cadavers, and used live humans laid in positions representing his subjects in the painting. Gericault used the painting as a political tool, since the wreckage was in part due to pressure to make good time above safety. The public questioned the lack of urgency for rescue ships to be sent out; the painting brutally depicts the desperation of the passengers who were dying each
