This chapter to me had the best art so far. I really enjoyed several of the
artists and their work in this chapter so for the first time this year it was very
hard for me to choose which paintings I enjoyed the most. With all the great art
in this chapter to choose from picking to pairs of artist was hard but I choose
what I believe to be four great pieces of art. For my first pair I choose two
great war time paintings. The first one was Goya's Executions of the Third of May
this is a very powerful piece and I really enjoyed it.
I compared it to Delacroix's Liberty this also was a very powerful piece of art
I think it had a little more detail to it then did Goya's work so I liked this
one just a little bit more but once again let me say I truly enjoyed them both.
The next two are Courbet's The Artist's Studio which was a painting within a
painting which I thought was very cleaver. I really enjoyed the detail in this
piece it almost made me feel as if I was there which I thought was very cool.
I compared it to Manet's Le Dejeuner which I found to be as beautiful as the
Courbet piece it has a little more color going for it but not as much detail if
push comes to shove and I had to pick one it would be the Courbet piece it is
truly breath taking to me. Once again I really loved this chapter and it's
artists.
