Albrecht Dürer. Virgin and Child with Saint Anne. 1519

# data[].attributes.body
A religious piece by Durer, that displays devotion to Saint Anne of Germany. The contrast of the dark background color with the bright iridescent color of their skin and clothing continuously draws your attention to the focal point, that is, Saint Anne—her gaze prophesies the passion that Christ will hold when he grows up.

Landscape with a Calm. Nicolas Poussin. 1656

# data[].attributes.body
This Baroque piece shows us how tranquil nature can truly be. The different layers, from the calm lake, the farm hand tending to his animals, and a castle in the distance, engage us with the many separate layers that make you look gradually at one at a time.  The storm clouds forming in the distance give us note of a storm coming, that may perhaps disrupt the peace of that day. letting us know that peace may be disrupted by storms every once in a while.

Stormy Coast Scene after a Shipwreck. Horace Vernet. 1825

# data[].attributes.body
This piece of the Romanticism era depicts the fury of mother nature. The ocean waves hit the rocks on the coast while the people try to get to safety to save their lives. The focal point of this piece is the ocean waves. The mixture of the dark clouds, roaring waves, and the jagged lines that make up the rocks make you feel the innate sense of danger the people in this piece must feel.

The Source. Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. 1856

# data[].attributes.body
In this Neoclassical piece, a young lady is pouring water from a container on the banks of a body of water. The symbolism of this piece is that of women being the source of life as is water. Ingres tied this piece with the mythological Goddess Venus, which balances a being of perfection to that of a real woman.

The Potato Eaters. Vincent Van Gogh. 1885

# data[].attributes.body
In this Realism era piece, Van Gogh attempted to capture people in their normal state and interactions with one another. There are five people sitting around a table eating supper, in a poorly lit room. The overall darkness of the piece enhances all the different expressions on the faces of the people. The intensity of these people is great enough that it is as if we are in the room with them. It is the darkness and the curiosity we get from trying to decipher what is being said that keep our attention drawn to the piece.
