Arts of East Asia:India, China, and Japan I found the art in this chapter
to be very moving and beautiful if I had to choose my favorite it would be the art
from Japan there is just something about it that moves me so I choose 2 sets of
artists from this group to compare to each other. 1st off was Utamaro's
Hairdressing
I compared this to Sharaku's Otani Oniji
Although they have a lot in common I really loved the Hairdressing I
found this piece to be truly breath taking I loved the colors used and the look
of the women they seemed at peace and the Sharaku piece just felt a little
scary to me. I just really was into the hairdresser and not so much into the
other go figure they are alike in a lot of ways but to me they could not be more
different but that is the beauty of art.
The next piece was Hokusai's Ejira in Suruga Province
I compared it to Hiroshige's Riverside Bamboo Market
I really enjoyed both these pieces like the 1st two they had a lot
in common they are both beautiful works of art with wonderful blends of colors
you could also see movement in the paintings they both seems to be alive which I
found to be very cool. I liked the Riverside a little more than the other because
it had a little more brightness to the colors which I really love. but as I said
in the beginning I really loved both pieces. for me this was a great chapter.
