Different Sides

My humanities class is in the 5th essay assignment and the assignment is to write about a visual art. I have to explain on two different kinds of art. Well the art that I chose is an American Art and a European Art. The reason why I choose this two is because their two different kind of art and two different kind of culture. This two pieces of art is found in the San Antonio Museum of Art
The American art is called Passing Storm over the Sierra Nevada’s by Albert Bierstadt. It is a uniquely driven painting and a brilliant piece of art. The painting of the art is in the wilderness next to a river. All you see is trees and the river bay with rocks along the side. The clouds are grey with a little bit of light coming out. It is like the storm is trying to make a way through the clouds. The colors are sort of nature colors that flows over the painting like if it is real. The texture of it is dark and frightening. The shape of forms is very bumpy and has smoothness to it. There is no painting of wild animals. When you look at it you feel this pause of silent just waiting for something to happen. The painting made me feel mourn and dreadful. The dark clouds are signs of depression and that little light is a sign that I still have hope left trying to break through.
The European Art is called Admiration by William Adolphe Bourguereau. This piece of art is different from the other one in every way as possible. The European art is more shake sphere century. It is more of a gentle passionate painting. The painting of it is five women with a little boy in the middle. They are all looking at him with a tender look and the little boy looks like he is bashful The women are half way dress with clothes that are like blankets and the little one is wearing a little piece of cloth the covers his private. The colors of this art are not heavy colors more like peaceful colors. The texture is very calm and ordinary. If you look at this painting it seems like it’s telling a story. When a little boy is lost and these five women found him trying to talk to him with passion. He feels timid and doesn’t know how to react; the only reaction is he is blushing.
