Analysis Of Prince Baltasar Carlos On Horseback

I chose the painting of "Prince Baltasar Carlos on Horseback". I believe that the artist was attempting to establish the young prince as he was born and destine to be the future King. The painting depicts a very young Prince with the confidence of a commanding leader. His face (although young) is stern. His posture, comfortable, showing confidence on a very large and plump steed. His uniform, is that of a commanding general with a pink sash. He holds a commanding staff up in the air with his right hand, firmly gripping his horses reins with his sword clearly visible on his hip.

What I describe above seem to have various meanings, but it solidifies the young prince as a strong king. I believe his young but stern face depicts royalty and

    Saint Justa Analysis

    Two paintings that really stood out to me were Portrait of María Luisa Gabriela of Savoy painted by Miguel Jacinto Meléndez and Saint Justa by Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. Despite the face they completely different women, Justa and Maria Luisa Gabriela of Savoy’s portraits were both painted to appease the standards of proper feminine women in the eyes of men. As a painter of the Baroque and Rococo era, Miguel Jacinto Melendez’s work had a very distinct artistic style that was typical of the early 18th century. Greatly admired for his attention to detail and delicate portraits, Melendez earned a position at…

    Comparing Las Meninas 'And The Allegory Of Painting'

    In the following essay I’m going to compare and contrast two 17th century artworks – “Las Meninas” by Diego Velazquez (1656) and “The Allegory of Painting” by Johannes Vermeer. Paintings depict artists working on a portrait, however, in Velasquez’s work the viewer is the person who is being painted and in Vermeer’s the viewer is just an observer of the artistic process. The only reason the observer knows that he is the center object of the future fictional painting is in the mirror on the back wall. The couple in the reflection is King Philip IV and his wife, Mariana. (Foucault, 8).…
