https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t Macbeth idea board by Iliana Booth en-us 2019-01-07 14:58:21 UTC 2025-11-09 07:24:56 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Balance.png imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317890504 I chose this image because in Macbeth, murder is prevalent. The vibrant red color of the fabric that the dagger lies on hints of blood and death. The dagger's blade is sharp and daunting, and it's white color contrasts sharply with the red fabric. The hilt is deep brown with golden streaks in it, and it has a long strip of gold at the top, separating the hilt from the blade. This image reminds me of murder and of cruel intentions, which Macbeth has when he kills those who stand in his way.]]> 2019-01-07 15:07:17 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317890504 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317899273 I chose this image because in Macbeth, Lady Macbeth sleepwalks and feels guilt for making her husband kill King Duncan. The scenery of this image contains a night sky with stars and a large moon, and a woman is on the roof of a house. Her eyes are closed and she is sleepwalking. This image stood out to me because it is clear that she is about to walk off the roof and die. This event taking place is different than Lady Macbeth's but metaphorically she may feel like she is about to "fall off the edge" because of her guilt. ]]> 2019-01-07 15:20:24 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317899273 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317905923 I chose this image because candles brighten a room and can help one to feel less sad. Lighting a candle can help to ease a person's guilt and in Macbeth, Lady Macbeth has great trouble dealing with her guilt after coercing her husband into murdering King Duncan. This picture is pitch black, and the candle light sheds only a bit of light in contrast to the darkness of the room. This reminds me of Lady Macbeth's failure to ease her guilty feelings which leads to her killing herself.]]> 2019-01-07 15:31:39 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317905923 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317912071 I chose this image because in Macbeth, the three witches are a vital part to the storyline. This image is three witches who appear to be performing a ritual of some sort. Their surroundings are dark and appears to be dusty or foggy. They are wearing white cloaks. Macbeth is lead into his downfall by the witches, who tell him a prophecy and trick him into thinking that he will have victory in the end. These witches appear just as deceitful and evil as the ones in Macbeth. ]]> 2019-01-07 15:41:17 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317912071 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317916090 I chose this image because it immediately reminded me of Macbeth and frightened me. It is a skull sitting amongst objects that are plain; a vase of some sort, a flower, and torn paper. The skull stands out amongst these objects and is chilling in the way that the empty eye sockets seem to stare off into the distance. The picture is cloudy and looks old. In Macbeth, people are killed and this skull could belong to any of Macbeth's victims, who is now lifeless and haunts the world.]]> 2019-01-07 15:46:53 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317916090 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317921350 I chose this images because in Macbeth, Lady Macbeth is shown to have bloody hands when she sleepwalks. She tries to wash it off, but it will not go away. Blood can symbolizes the permanency of death, because it can stain. In the picture it is dripping from the hand, and it will leave a mark on the surface that it lands on. Bloody hands instantly makes a person look guilty of murder or extreme violence. ]]> 2019-01-07 15:54:58 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317921350 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317926427 I chose this image because in Macbeth, he is driven by his ambitions to be a powerful ruler, and murders those who get in his way. This crown is a king's crown, which symbolizes a powerful king. His subjects listen to and respect him no matter what, and the way that he gets to a result is unknown by the public and thus may be dishonorable or even evil, like Macbeth. This crown is red, which can symbolize both power and honor and blood and violence.]]> 2019-01-07 16:02:04 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317926427 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317931267 I chose this image because Macbeth lives in a castle, and this is a very ominous castle. The sky is dark and has wispy clouds, and there is a large moon behind the castle. There are many bats flying in the sky, and there are barren and scraggly trees around. The castle is tall and intimidating. This communicates the scary and murderous themes of Macbeth.]]> 2019-01-07 16:09:20 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317931267 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317956861 I chose this image because a bloody rose symbolizes love that is destructive. Macbeth's wife, Lady Macbeth, emotionally manipulates him into killing King Duncan once she becomes completely power hungry and encourages him to feel the same. His love for her caused him to kill King Duncan. Roses are often given to show love. This rose has been cut by a blade and has blood on it; Macbeth's love has caused him to turn corrupt because he lets Lady Macbeth turn him into a murderer. ]]> 2019-01-07 16:49:41 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/317956861 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318045840 I chose this image because there is an epic battle near the ending of Macbeth. In this battle, Macbeth is slain by Macduff. He thought that he would be indestructible as the witches told him that he could not be killed by someone woman-born. However, Macduff was not born the normal way and was ripped from his mother's stomach. This picture shows men yelling viciously as they charge into battle.]]> 2019-01-07 19:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318045840 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318070732 I chose this image because it seems to me like the castle that Macbeth lives in.  It is the Dunrobin castle in Scotland. The landscape is vibrant green colors, while the sky is a beautiful light blue. The castle has points on it's turrets and many windows. ]]> 2019-01-07 20:04:19 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318070732 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318086057 I chose this image because it seemed like the perfect dress for Lady Macbeth. It is deep red with a black pattern on the bodice and a thin black and transparent outer layer on the skirt of the dress. It has deep red which can symbolize blood and murder, as well as black which can symbolize evil, authority, and mystery. Lady Macbeth encourages Macbeth to begin killing in order to become as powerful as can be. She encompasses all of these things which the dress can symbolize.]]> 2019-01-07 20:40:20 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318086057 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318098561 I chose this image because they are white lace gloves that I can see Lady Macbeth wearing. When visitors came to have dinner with Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, she did her best to put on a show of hiding who she truly is. Her true self is power-hungry and cruel, but she displayed herself to others as being an obedient and dainty wife. These gloves could very well be part of her act in hiding who she is.]]> 2019-01-07 21:15:25 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318098561 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318100313 I chose this image because I can imagine this ominous raven perched wisely on a branch outside of the castle where Macbeth lives. Ravens are sometimes referred to as harbingers of death and misfortune. The sky is filled with dark clouds, but there is a faint light that appears to be centered around the raven. This raven could be acknowledging a murder that Macbeth has carried out, and he may let out a solemn cry.]]> 2019-01-07 21:20:58 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318100313 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318102518 I chose this image because even though the man pictured is not supposed to be Macbeth, I can picture him wearing this outfit. It has a dark color scheme of mostly black, red, and possibly some navy. There is a large white collar and a white fur lining with black speckles. There is black stockings and shoes. This clothing looks fit for a corrupt and murderous ruler like Macbeth. ]]> 2019-01-07 21:27:39 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318102518 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318104532 I chose this image because it represents the death that Macbeth has caused. It is in a graveyard with a stormy night sky with lightning, but the picture focuses on a single grave. The picture is in black, grey, and white, which immediately make the viewer feel sadness. The person beneath this grave could have been a victim of Macbeth. Perhaps it was a child in the family that he had killed; their life was taken away from them far too soon. A great tragedy is conveyed by this image, which makes one feel despair as those affected by the murders of Macbeth felt.]]> 2019-01-07 21:35:07 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318104532 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318106469 I chose this image because it reminded me of Macbeth's hallucination of seeing Banquo, who he had murdered, at a banquet. The picture is a black and white image of a ghost in a stairway. You can clearly see that the ghost or spirit is translucent and is made of air; they are not a living person. Macbeth hallucinates seeing Banquo because he feels guilty for what he has done, since Banquo was his friend and is now gone. The hallucination greatly frightens him, as he thinks that he is really seeing Banquo's ghost. Looking at this picture, I can try to imagine the remorse as well as the fear that Macbeth was feeling.]]> 2019-01-07 21:44:50 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318106469 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318108528 I chose this image because after Macbeth murders King Duncan, he comes back to Lady Macbeth in the pouring rain in distress. The falling rain sets the mood for how he is feeling at this moment. His guilt will pile on with each passing day, and his sanity will decline. The rain falling down around him is foretelling his downfall in a way, because rain's natural movement is a downward fall.]]> 2019-01-07 21:55:44 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318108528 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318110906 I chose this image because Macbeth meets his end when he is beheaded by Macduff in battle. He had went into battle fearless and confident, because the witches had told him that he could not be killed by man born of a woman. Macduff shocks him when he tells him that he was ripped untimely from his mother, and was not born normally from her.  He beheads Macbeth and that is the end for him. In this picture, a man is about to behead someone, as he is holding his sword up ready to swing it down. This line drawing is extremely impressive, and it allows me to visualize Macduff's victory and Macbeth's loss as he is brought to the end for punishment of his evil deeds and insanity.]]> 2019-01-07 22:06:34 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318110906 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318112880 I chose this image because Macbeth hallucinates and Lady Macbeth is humiliated when they host a banquet. This banquet room is filled with large portraits and fancy wood, as well as expensive carpet and chairs. The table is set, ready for a banquet of important people. Macbeth hallucinates that he is seeing the ghost of his friend Banquo, who he killed and is very frightened. He acts visibly insane to everyone else at the banquet, and Lady Macbeth is extremely embarrassed. His mental state is declining, and he is even losing touch with what is reality. It isn't long before he completely loses it and impulsively kills even more people. ]]> 2019-01-07 22:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318112880 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318171610 I chose this image because it reminded me of King Duncan. This is a picture of King Edward VII lying dead. Even though he had not been murdered, I can picture him in a bloody scene, with this same lifeless pose. I can picture this because Macbeth murdered King Duncan as he is lying in bed. The picture is in black and white, which makes it creepier and/or more melancholy. ]]> 2019-01-08 06:54:21 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318171610 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318173398 I chose this image because I can see this full moon being in the sky on a night of one of Macbeth's murders. Full moons are often associated with strange or insane behavior, which Macbeth surely exhibits as his sanity declines and he spirals into a man whose morals have been blinded completely by his hunger for power. The darkness of the sky contrasts sharply to the bright white moon, which can make one feel uncomfortable as the stark contrast suggests something almost supernatural; as it appears not quite natural. This moon would watch overhead while a maniac carries out murder, simply looking down at it from high above and letting it happen. It can seem almost as though the full moon enjoys evil.]]> 2019-01-08 07:10:15 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318173398 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318174668 I chose this image because it features witches that appear similar to the way I picture the witches in Macbeth, and they are crouched over a cauldron. From the cauldron a green fog emanates, suggesting that the witches are creating some kind of potion or a witchcraft spell. It is common lore that witches know about people's fates and are also very tricky and mischievous. In Macbeth's case, they tricked him about his fate without even lying. They said that he couldn't be killed by a man of woman-born, however Macduff was ripped from his mother's stomach so he didn't technically fit the story.]]> 2019-01-08 07:19:31 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318174668 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318178847 I chose this image because this tree looks as though it is suffering, and losing it's sanity like Macbeth does. It is personified to me in a strange way, because it looks a bit like a person with their arms up, screaming in agony. Macbeth didn't want to kill King Duncan, but he did it for his wife. Following this murder, he becomes more and more insane and is no longer the person that he was, who had morals and empathy. His transformation into an evil person was marked by guilt, hallucinating Banquo's ghost, and an increased need for power. This tree looks as though it is turning insane as well, with the way that it is bent and shifted in a painful way. ]]> 2019-01-08 07:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318178847 imb2021manatees https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318180883 I chose this image because the woman, Porcia Catonis, has similarities to Lady Macbeth. She was the second wife of Marcus Junius Brutus, the most famous of Julius Caesar's assassins. Porcia committed suicide, as did Lady Macbeth. This picture illustrates her stabbing herself, which reminded me of Lady Macbeth, who killed herself because of her guilt in starting Macbeth's murders. Porcia is wearing red, which can symbolize seduction, violence, and malice; these things all have to do with Lady Macbeth. The fact that Portia had a famous assassin husband and ended her life in suicide bears striking resemblance to the story of Lady Macbeth.]]> 2019-01-08 07:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/imb2021manatees/3325eoyjbw6t/wish/318180883
