This painting shows these themes because the artist have painted what they saw but included more and less. Something that these painters include are more idealized colors to the stereotype of a perfect sunset--as shown in my picture--to add romance and aestheticism. Some things that they, the painters, exclude are the real things in life such as the demented part of nature and how the world really looks. These painters don’t add the ugly things in life like dead animals or conflict between nature and mammals such as humans. These feature are included and excluded to show a more aesthetic and or idealized version of life and nature. The theme of this painting relates to “ To Build A Fire”. Throughout the story the man has a naturalistic view of living in the wilderness. The man thinks of the cold such a fifty degrees below zero to only feel like fifty degrees below zero and nothing less than that. When in reality fifty degrees below zero feels much colder than that. These painting give people a more attractive view of that certain place and makes them--viewers of these painting--want to go to these places and explore what these places are like to behold for

    The Two Fridas is an oil painting by Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, painted in 1939. This large-scale work presents a double self-portrait of two versions of Frida that takes almost the entire canvas, posing seated on a wooden-bench together. One is wearing a discreet, elegant, white European-style Victorian dress while the other one is wearing a colorful, traditional Mexican dress- both representing the artist’s background. The first impression that depicts this art of work is the duality of a woman, the double-perception of the artist herself, personalities, one side as a strong, enamored woman and another as a woman in pain, suffering.…

    In 1995, 14 gray wolves (Canis lupus) were reintroduced into Yellowstone National Park after an absence beginning in the 1920s (Beschta and Ripple 2010). These wolves produced a trophic cascade, where a higher level of food chain affects a lower one. This cascade began by the wolves causing elk (Cervus elaphus) removal and relocation and led to trees quintupling in size. Seeing the positive effects wolves had on trees, more national parks and states began facilitating this natural ecology management. By initiating a wolf presence in certain areas, a trophic cascade occurs and thus allows for tree recruitment and renewal.…

    If the viewer looks beyond the massive canvas filled with a vast array of colors and abstract forms, and searches deeper within the piece, they will experience what the Abstract Expressionism movement was all about. They will participate in the post-war mood of anxiety and trauma through the vigorous and angry gestural strokes, chaotic composition, and the massive size of the piece engulfing them completely. Abstract Expressionism emerged as a new form of self-expression mainly in New York, the center of the art world, and was welcomed as the first authentic avant-garde. At the time of its popularity, European artists, poets, and writers fled Europe to escape the political upheaval that was occurring. America became a new safe haven with many new artistic influences, helping the Abstract Expressionism craze spread even more.…

    Romanticism is an artistic movement that began after the Enlightenment that focused on the genre of literature, music and the arts during the late 1750s well through the mid-1800s. It is said that the era of Romanticism is the historical period in which individuals began to visualize themselves as well as their modern conflicts and desires. To put the idea simply, due to Romanticism’s stylistic diversity, it is uncanny to believe that there was more than one category for this art movement, but of course this is true. Romanticism is broken down into categories such as landscapes and shipwrecks alongside the sublime, portraiture, nationalism and evocation, as well as imaginative sensibility; more specifically the categories of Romanticism are…
