Mother and son died: It falls under the bull, as protected by him, his face turned towards the sky in a gesture or cry of pain. Your tongue is sharp as a stiletto, and their eyes are shaped like tears.

Pigeon : not visible to the naked eye, but, except for a strip of white is the color of the background and only its outline is drawn. It has a wing fall and upturned head, with open beaks. It has generally been considered a symbol of peace broken.

Bulb: One of the most intriguing images awake, You can connect the pump bulb symbol.

Cristo muerto sostenido por un ángel

lunes, 5 de octubre de 2009 | | 0 comentarios


In my view this painting of Jesus Christ is an image a little sad because he is Jesus Christ's dying and an angel tries to help Jesus Christ so that will not die
.

This image shows the suffering of Jesus after being accused and tortured.

In the face of the angel is also the pain that has to witness the death of Jesus, and tries to make him feel better but that is no longer possible.

In the rib of Jesus can be seen as wounded with a spear and this also causes pain, The more paint of jesus is that one of 12 apostles it betrayed and the townpeople too.

I really think this painting is actually the best I've seen in my life because I caused strange feelings and i can´t find in other paintings.

My own interpretation


I tried to interpret the suffering of Jesus to be betrayed and hurt physically. All that is in this picture.
Treason is represented as the foot of a friend over my body and see this causing a physical and mental pain as he is a great friend and this betrayal.
I am Catholic, and therefore have read is that Jesus was a good person.
I think that when the artist was doing this painting it,
he tried to make ourselves think what we are and to thinking what jesus suffered for us.

Thanks For your time!!

Miguel Angel

For me this sculpture is a work of art because, according to Ingarden everyone has their own special way of seeing things and feeling and that's what makes some people a painting, or something is a work of art or not.

In my personal interpretation of this sculpture is like the simulation of a perfect man. He is seeing nothing, like thinking of his future, or past, or concern about something that might happen. This painting represent like strength or spirit. Also represent man trying to conquer a lady with his beauty and his strength. Briefly this picture is a perfect man finding the perfect women. I think this author want to demostrate his feelings, like respect and distress that he lived with a lady and he wants conquer a new person.

I imagine strong and beautiful people when I see this painting I feel something when I can´t describe very well. I put this image because I tried to express my feelings when i take this photography I have a moment of peace when i see it because this painting is peaceful. This picture also represent me, when i think in my future, also i think in my family, in my friends, also i want to go inside me , and look all me feelings about other persons.

My interpretation


I put this picture of a peacock because peacocks use their colorful plumage to conquer the females and the first picture has relation whit the second because I think the sculpture of that person is like trying to impress a woman with her body and he is thinking how do it.
