Because of the scale of this painting it shows the beauty of flowers and gives it more of a intensity.

Her lovely representation of two ordinary flowers generated widespread admiration and was considered as one of her most memorable works. She had a love her
History has unveiled the years of sacrifices woman before my time had to endure to help young woman like myself to stand up for what we believe in today. Rose Bonheur a famous woman artist in France in the nineteenth century learning all her skills of painting from her father who was a drawling teacher and landscaper. Many men in the 1800’s were known to be very educated in art unlike women. Women seeking professional careers in the arts were restricted in their opportunities to receive an artistic education.

Utamaro was well known and very famous for his wood block prints. Many of his designs consisted of Geisha or women in general. It is believed that he was born to the owner of a tea house, which means he would have been exposed at a very young age to the ways of the Geisha. He became very popular in France, especially among the impressionists artists for his ability to paint partial views, with light and shades. This poem is about a young geisha who is preparing herself for her nightly outing.
She began to create things by randomizing her ideas and simply putting her imagination on a piece of paper. She used old and modern photographs to influence her paintings. She was interested in the idea of countless types of colors and details in her paintings.

Girl Before a Mirror is an amazing painting by Pablo Picasso, of his young mistress Marie Therese Walter. The painting is very involved as it tries to portray a woman facing her image as a pure innocent young lady to a woman that she has become or is becoming. The contrast that Pablo Picasso is trying to depict is not just relevant in the image in the mirror, but also through the color pallet he chose. On the young girls innocent side, the colors seem to be more pure and subtle with one half of her face a pale pink, her hair soft and blonde, and what looks like a white silhouette or halo around her head, and as her image gets closer to her reflection in the mirror, the colors start to become more intense not so simple or innocent. The transformation of the colors from her standing there, to her reflection in the mirror, shows a darker, older, more voluptuous woman.
Women in the Scientific Revolutionary Era had little to no training in sciences, so they had to read and study on their own. Mari Merian was the most gifted of all naturalists during the 17th and 18th centuries, but she was remembered not as a scientist but as an artist.3 She completed and published six collections of engravings of European flowers and insects.3 For example she painted caterpillars at every stage of development. The Countess of Cinchon, Ana Osorio was the first person to alert Europe to the medical properties of quinine bark brought back from Peru, because it had cured her malaria.3 The plant is named Cinchona Pubescens by Carl Linnaeus in Countess of Cinchon’s honor. It is native to the mountainous regions of tropical South America.3 Margaret Cavendish was an English aristocratic woman who taught herself mathematics, astronomy, and studies of the universe.3 She created fourteen books on everything from natural history to atomic physics. Emilie Chatelet was accepted into the foremost mathematical and scientific circles of Paris.3 As a physicist she earned a strong reputation, when she interpreted and translated the theories of Isaac Newton.
But reading Bourgeois explanation about it, it made sense. All of Bourgeois artwork is based on her life, she quotes, “Everything I do is inspired by my early life”, Bourgeois’ looked up to her mother who was the most important person in her life for many reasons, ‘Maman’ symbolizes her mother; “The friend, because my best friend was my mother and she was deliberate, clever, patient, soothing, reasonable, dainty, subtle, indispensable, neat, and as useful as a spider.” All of these qualities are given out in the sculpture through the material used, shape and texture. For Louise Bourgeois it is very meaningful personally, however she wanted the sculpture to evoke many different emotions for someone seeing it for the first time. For a spectator viewing this sculpture for the first time it creates a
The French collection captured my attention on the Metropolitan website. The Green Blouse by Pierre Bonnard surpassed the rest of the artwork because I was intrigued by the facial impression of what appears to be a "young" lady at a dinner table. I was grateful enough to have an assistant escort me to my specific artwork located in Gallery 828, which is devoted to Pierre Bonnard and Edouard Vulliard. Both artists were known to be the two most remarkable and proficient colorists in France. The impact that the environment had on viewing my art object revolved around the fact that most of the artwork had profuse colorful garden scenes.
