Reichstag fire that occurred on 27th February 1933, started by dutch communist Marinus van der Lubbe to justify the repression of and cultivate a fear of communism. The Reichstag fire led to Hitler persuading Hindenburg to pass Law for the Protection of People and the State through Article 48 (presidential decree), that allowed him to legally destroy the communist (KPD) threat.

zombies and the destruction of one's normal previous life, such change can break a person. History has shown how dramatic events have changed people from what they were.

The use of line is used widely through one of his most famous pieces, The Starry Night. Referred to as “the visible path of a moving point (Understanding Visual Artforms in Our World, Anderson and Carson, 2014, pg.30)”, line defines every visible object in the night depicted in the painting.

Even though both The Starry Night and Bowl by Ginny Marsh are completely different form of art, but what make me bring them together is one thing, there is always something can brighten your world. Both of them have their own story to tell and their story are different from each other, yet they both managed to go to the same ending. On Van Gogh’s side of the story, by using the darker side of color wheel, that represent the inner part of his fantasy. Adding the wave-like rapid flow of brush…

Van Gogh used all of the elements of art in “Starry Night”, but some call more attention to themselves than others. Line, for example is a prominent feature in this piece.

I notice that color also dominates this piece, with strokes of blue littering the scene, with a beautiful contrast of yellow to represent stars. I see many organic shapes with the dark figure of the cypress tree, and…
