She is clad in an elegant white dress, which stands out in the darkness of the surroundings creating a jarring and intriguing portrait that evokes threatened innocence and virtue. Her hands are clasped on her knee, implying modesty and anxiety. A man in a conical cap, popular in mid-nineteenth century, is cutting her hair – symbol of her femininity – while she’s looking longingly at a painting on the easel to her left. The shearing is a humiliating ritual and her eyes look alert, creating an impression of determination in the face of indignity. An artist is watching her, perhaps looking for approval of his portrait, as he is packing up his paints on the table. Other objects in the cell include a palette knife in the right hand corner, which hints at a possible crime Corday committed, and a quill pen on the left that symbolises the power of written word, as well as a heap of dark fabric at the foot of the woman. The mood is sombre and anticipating as she will soon be walked off to her execution.

It was created by E.M. Ward, English historical painter and illustrator (Bendiner, 2004) and published in London in 1869 (The British Museum), seven decades after the event it represents.  As the famous assassin of the French revolutionary Jean-Paul Marat during the terror stage of the French Revolution, in 1793, Corday quickly became a subject of not only multiple paintings, engravings and cheap illustrations but also plays, novels, short stories and historical narratives (Kindleberger, 1994, p.971). In this representation, she is clad in an elegant white dress, which stands out in the darkness of the surroundings creating a jarring and intriguing portrait that evokes innocence and virginity, which her post mortem confirmed much to the chagrin of her critics (Gelbart, 2004, p.205). Her hands are clasped on her knee, implying modesty and anxiety. A man in a conical cap, also called a Phrygian cap or a liberty cap as it was a Roman symbol of freedom (Korshak, 1987), is cutting her hair – symbol of her femininity – while she’s looking longingly at a painting on the easel to her right. Her ultra-feminine portrayal could be seen as a response to the contemporary negative representations of her as an unattractive, embittered and man-hating militant (Gullickson, 2014). The shearing is a humiliating ritual and her alert eyes create an impression of determination in the face of indignity. The artist whom she requested to paint her portrait, possibly Jean Jacque Haure (Gelbart, p.204), is watching her, perhaps looking for approval of his portrait, as he is packing up his paints on the table. Other objects in the cell include a palette knife in the right hand corner, which hints at the crime Corday committed when she plunged a kitchen knife into Marat’s heart killing him instantly, and a quill pen on the left that symbolises the power of written word, which is what Corday acknowledged by assassinating the journalist whom she saw as instigating hatred and representing the ‘tyranny of the mob’ (Yarrington and Everest, 2016, p. 7). The mood is sombre and anticipating as she will soon be walked off to her executionat the guillotine, the preferred method of decapitating the enemies of state during the Reign of Terror in Revolutionary France (Croker, 1853). Following her political act, Corday became a mythical figure, a symbol of the French revolution, to which visual representations such as this one significantly contribute (Hilger, 2010, p.71).

And others in the background. The woman was hugged and lifted violently. From the background and the guards we know the place is Buckingham Palace. There is probably an event around cause there are a lot of people running behind.
The picture is probably captured by the photographer in chaos. Cause no one is looking or even noticing the camera, as the scene is going messy and unpredictable. The officer had her controlled in an offensive way while she was struggling hysterically. The whole image was having this strong contrast as people mostly wear black and the sunlight is very strong.

It shows the character of Batman in ripped clothes and badly injured, the ripped clothing was most likely caused during a fight, While it is not unusual for Batman to get the occasional rip or cut on his suit, he very rarely has his suit damaged to such an large extent. Frank Miller the author of the comic wanted the audience to see and understand  the more violent heavy side of Batman as a character and as a vigilante. The damage to Batman’s suit is a high indicator that batman could possibly be struggling with old age. The author and illustrator wanted to clearly show the audience that even a strong and competent hero like Batman can succumb to old age.]]> 2022-11-10 15:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378779707 monikabandarurao0 https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378779717 2022-11-10 15:03:41 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378779717 Tamikka Lambert tamikkalambert15 https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378781001 2022-11-10 15:04:28 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378781001 Tamikka Lambert tamikkalambert15 https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378781564 2022-11-10 15:04:49 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378781564 selphakungu https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378786464 2022-11-10 15:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378786464 Ziao Yan 10/11/22 https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378786655 Modular clothing designer.

It is a 70-80 year old wall art from 1930s come from the Kutch region of Gujarat. This textile can be used in many different ways like runner and wall hanging. We can also use this to make a range of products like yoga mats, cushions, purses and bags. It is old art work so it is expensive to by I saw this on Etsy website and the cost is £134.29. ]]> 2022-11-10 15:22:54 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378812101 Yang Liu https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378812370 2022-11-10 15:23:03 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378812370 Wenbo Bi https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378814618 2022-11-10 15:24:21 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378814618 Wenbo Bi https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378815505 2022-11-10 15:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378815505 Yan Pan https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378821100 2022-11-10 15:28:14 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378821100 Yan Pan https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378822177 2022-11-10 15:28:52 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378822177 Tsz Yan Yau, 10/11 https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378831125 2022-11-10 15:34:03 UTC https://padlet.com/carlahm1/c1htgv8hpzork428/wish/2378831125
