Dance at the Moulin de la Galette

jacob_rafols — 2018-06-07 08:41:21 UTC

Story
I looked around…

There was a lot of people there. That was not strange, as it was a beautiful Sunday morning. The sun was shining all over the main square. And the trees where smoothing the light that came through the leaves that day. The chairs and the tables of the cafés or bars, were carefully displaced so the sun didn’t burn all the people having breakfast. I stopped my morning walk for a couple of seconds. I looked at all the people there. Everyone had their lives, their stories, their things, their struggles with life. Maybe, that girl crying at the end of the square had had problems with his husband. Maybe, she was tired of him. Maybe, the man next to her, was a friend of hers, or maybe, he was her father, trying to make her stop, return home, and fix whatever was happening. Then, another individual called my attention. I saw a young boy, looking at the sun, or maybe the other girl, that I couldn’t see very well. He was writing on a little notebook. “What’s he writing?” I wondered, as I saw him moving his hand quickly. Then, I looked again, and another person made me stop. I saw a couple dancing in the middle of the crowd. They were dancing, not caring about anyone passing by. Maybe, that was a special day for them, maybe that was they three hundred and sixty fifth married day. Or maybe, they weren’t still married, maybe they were celebrating that their wedding might be in just a couple of weeks. There were thousands of stories there. And what about mine, maybe, I just was having my morning walk, or maybe, I was going to see someone. Maybe, I was just painting a scene.

The Fighting Temeraire (Story)

joan_garcia_garcia — 2018-06-09 19:52:11 UTC

It was the third of November 1839, and London was covered with the snow that winter had brought to the city. The days were cold and short and the nights were dark and even colder. People made long walks in the harbours of the city to look at the beauty of the sea and to breathe the cold fresh air. Closeck was a man who liked walking through the London’s harbours as many other people, and enjoyed looking at the skies full of stars at night, now clearer because of the cold. He’d been walking through the harbours for hours every night since the beginning of October, and he had seen all the ships that left London to unknown lands.

That night, a big old warship had been staying in the London’s harbour, one of the biggest and most wonderful warships Closeck had ever seen. It had three huge masts that arose from the depths of the iron cage, and which went up into the far dark skies, which shone because of the stars. The iron cage, stuck to the sea level with all the parts of the warship but the masts, had a peculiar glow that made it seem more metallic and stronger. Closeck continued moving through the harbour and after some hours of walking, Closeck was thinking about leaving. It was cold, he could get a cold; and dawn was close, so finally he decided to go home. When he started leaving, the warship started leaving too: the Temeraire, as he could read as the warship’s name. The Sun had already arisen when the warship had left, and it was dawn. The sky was full of different colours: orange, yellow and reddish colours painted the abovegrounds of London. He stayed at the harbour and, when the warship disappeared from the horizon, he went home too.

That day, another person had been walking in the London’s harbour, and had witnessed the same scene as Closeck. This person, was an artist called Joseph Mallord William Turner, and he was a painter. Some years later, Closeck discovered this painting that Joseph had painted about that night in a shop display in London, and he remembered this night of stars, glow and dawn.

Nighthawks- Story

ivette_tomas — 2018-06-10 14:50:54 UTC

Another cold night, another visit to the bar. The streets were completely empty and the only sound that could be heard was the sharp footsteps accompanied by five inch high heels.

The cold air brushed against her bare legs and arms. She should have brought a coat to help her out during this eventful night, she thought. However, she had work to do, and her dress was all she needed.
As she arrived to the infamous bar, she looked around and inspected her surroundings.
When she found what she was looking for she sat down next to the man and started a light conversation with him.
It always went like that, men would look at her seductive red dress and would invite her to some drinks. But what they never know is that she would not only attempt to steal their hearts, but also their wallets and perhaps their lives.
The man she was talking to had rambled about his failed marriage and his problem with alcohol, however that didn't stop the woman. She did this job for a reason, she did not pity any man that could approach her. Why would she pity a man? They had already hurt her enough.
Some hours later, when the sun still wasn't shining, a corpse was found near the river, without the little belongings he always carried around.

Years later, rumours started to spread about this mysterious woman and all the dead men whose last place to visit was the bar named Nighthawks.

Until this day, no one knows the truth about what happened.
What they know is that there was a dangerous but seductive woman, who frequently visited the bar, with ginger hair accompanied by a beautiful red dress and sharp high heels, who supposedly was a heart-breaker, and maybe, a serial killer. Rumours said that if you visit Nighthawks exactly at 3 am, you will be able to hear the sound of a woman's high heels getting close to you.
But who knows, right ? A rumour is a rumour.
This story inspired the author of this painting to recreate the setting of the location where many mysteries had occurred. The painting can be seen in The Art Institute of Chicago (USA).

It was a sunny day I had just left work, all dressed and tired from so many hours of work. I had just prayed and I saw a painter who was portraying the landscape of the sea. Then I asked him to make me a portrait but I did not want my face to be seen. I saw a healthy food sideboard and I thought I would draw an apple on my face to cover it. That's how I drew an apple that covered my face, I was happy and I paid for the portrait and hung it in my house. My family told me that because it covered my face, it was not so ugly to cover it up, I told them to cover it because I wanted to be a famous but masked man and that was years later I was famous and nobody knew my face or anything about me only that I was an elegant man.

Paula-Portrait of Dora Maar

2018-06-11 07:47:09 UTC

One morning, in 1937, Pablo Picasso was walking through the streets of Paris when he saw a girl sitting on a bench reading a book. Pablo stayed looking at her for a long time. The next day the girl returned to the bank at the same time and Pablo was fascinated by such beauty. They continued like this for a few weeks.

There was a day that the girl did not appear and Pablo stayed waiting with the hope that he would appear. Pablo was madly in love with her.

Years passed and he kept thinking about her but, over time, he forgot his face and only had an abstract memory left. Picasso's problem was that everything he imagined in a painting was abstract, because he saw the world like that.

One day he decided to paint that beautiful woman before he completely forgot his face, but first he wanted to find out his name. He spent weeks looking for the name of that woman without result, but he did not surrender at any time. One day he was about to give up a book that had a written note that said "Inside this book you can find me, just as I found you in my eyes." Picasso finished the book and painted the woman whose name I already knew, Dora Maar.

Many years ago, four children played in a park on the outskirts of the city in a residential area. They went every day because they had no other place to play. The four children were not from families with a lot of money, although they were enough to live in that area of the city. every day they saw people go by a bridge that was on top of a lake and connected an area with more palantas with the other side where the swings were for the children. Normally the children played in the swings area but one day they decided to spend the afternoon in the vegetation zone. They crossed the bridge and nobody knew anything more about the children.

Her mother told the girl that had begun the war with the people of the side and that they had to flee so that they would not be slaughtered. The very sad girl went to make the suitcase and when she had it they went to another town. There the mother of the girl met a boy who had a flock of goats and asked him if he could stay at home to sleep in exchange he would make some cheeses with the milk of his flock. The boy all happy said that if and after a few months of living together they decided to become a partner and all the cheeses they did were selling them to live. In the end they were happy.

"The Great Wave" poem by Karine Ohanyan

karine_19 — 2022-04-21 10:07:50 UTC

Come to the beach,

I'm looking at the silence

that chases the waves

with fresh air.

Come to the beach,

I’ll tell you a secret,

that will make you think of me,

with a nice memory.

Come to the beach,

the waves are getting bigger,

they make me worry,

help me.

Come to the beach,

you won't find me anymore

the force has taken me,

without you noticing.

"The Great Wave"

karine_19 — 2022-04-21 10:13:32 UTC

The name of this painting is “The Great Wave” and it was painted by Katsushika Hokusai in Japan between 1829 and 1833. It is made of ink and colour on paper. Is exhibited at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The title and the painting talk about the big wave that we can see. In this painting we can see a ocean with a big wave and there are people sailing. I think that the wave symbolize the force of nature and the predominant colours are blue and white, the colours of the water.

· Introduction:
The painting is called Surprised! It was painted by Henri Rousseau in 1891 in London. It is made with oil paint. It’s exhibited in The National Gallery.

· Poem:
While I’m watching the painting

an history my mind is creating

I can see a tiger,

without fear, brave,

I can see its power

without fear of death.
It goes to hunt its prey,

the tiger can beat the battle

because it doesn’t know

the feeling of fear.

THE BLUE LEGEND

2022-04-26 15:25:59 UTC

It was finally Friday, I had finished my hard work week in the office and now I had to enjoy a small break of two days.

When I arrived at home, everything looked normal, the chilling silence, the aroma of berries… but in the hallway there was a new picture which my wife had found in the warehouses of her store. I observed it quietly, it seemed familiar but I just thought that it was very awful. There was only a bunch of flowers, placed in any way on a field that seemed drier than the desert. And on top of a bluish color that doesn’t combine anything with the shades of our house.

The next day I was cleaning the house and every time I looked at the painting, I saw it differently, as if someone retouched the painting all the time.

The days were passing and the picture was changing but I couldn't tell anyone because they wouldn't believe me.

One day, at work, my fellows were talking about a legend of the village. I gossiped and listened to his conversation and the story talked about a family that lived on Major Street and had a son. That child never spoke and people said he was shy, others said he hadn’t been taught to speak… But the legend says that the poor boy was trapped in a room full of irises and when he came out his whole mouth was stained blue, the same color of the flowers. I was surprised but as it was a legend, I didn’t believe it.

Back home I stopped at an ice cream parlor for something and had a smoothie of berries. It made me laugh because it left my tongue blue like when we ate chewing gum as children.

When I got home my wife had already prepared dinner for me and that night she had cooked me a great steak with my favorite sauce, the blue sauce which is a typical Japanese sauce. After dinner I went to my room but I didn’t arrive, I was dumbfounded looking at the painting. I couldn't do anything, and I couldn't call my wife either. The doors of the corridor slammed shut and merged with the wall taking on its same color. The whole space began to turn blue, the walls, the floor, the ceiling ... and flowers began to appear everywhere. All my life passed before my eyes, then I remembered the legend and I remembered where I had seen before the painting that my wife had found. I started trying to scream, I had no voice, but I tried to get it back just like I lost it when I was little. I squealed, hit the wall, cried… There was no way. Until I decided to do the same thing I had done when I was little. I picked up the blue irises and started eating them non-stop, one after another.

Suddenly, as I was about to eat the last flower, I felt a chill in my throat until I was finally able to regain my voice.

The next morning, I woke up in the hospital, with my whole family around and a lot of journalists and cameras waiting for me, the protagonist of the town's most famous legend, to come out and explain it. I didn't know how I got there, or if anyone knew what had happened to me. So the only thing I did was to approach my wife and say, I love you.

"Ophelia" by Ángela Rojas

angela_rojas — 2022-04-27 06:13:19 UTC

Your voice is very sweet

break the silence of the environment,

your tears are the melody,

little by little drown you,

the flowers watch you

watching how you sink,

memories flash by,

for your mind,

thoughts absorb you,

little by little your essence fades,

your screams under the water,

they are the warning of your death.

"Ophelia"

angela_rojas — 2022-04-27 06:17:33 UTC

The name of the painting is "Ophelia" and was painted by John Everett between 1851-and 1852. It was made of oil on canvas. It is exhibited, at the moment, in Tate Britain, London. In this painting, I can see a woman in a river just before her death. It is a character from William Shakespeare's Hamlet. Also, the colors that dominate the painting are green and brown. It has very intense colors. The painting conveys sadness and the arrival of death, because Ofelia falls into the river and sings as she sinks. The relationship between the title and the work of art is that Ophelia is the woman's name that we can see in the painting. Finally, in the foreground, we can see the protagonist of the painting, Ofelia. Also, in the background, we can see nature, flowers, and a very detailed landscape that catches our attention.

Mona Lisa history

nicolasmartin5 — 2022-04-27 06:22:27 UTC

The Portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, better known as La Gioconda (La Joconde in French) or Monna Lisa, is a pictorial work by the Italian Renaissance polymath Leonardo da Vinci. It was acquired by King Francis I of France at the beginning of the 16th century and has been the property of the French State ever since. It is exhibited in the Louvre Museum in Paris, being, without a doubt, the "jewel" of its collections.

Her name, La Gioconda (la Alegre, in Spanish), derives from the most accepted thesis about the identity of the model: the wife of Francesco Bartolomeo de Giocondo, who was really called Lisa Gherardini, from where her other name comes: Monna. (lady, in old Italian) Lisa. The Louvre Museum accepts the full title indicated at the beginning as the original title of the work, although it does not recognize the identity of the model and only accepts it as a hypothesis.2

Jackson Pollock number 6,Once upon a time, a very boring painter, because he didn't know what to do, he went to the forest to look for plants.

Once he arrived at his house, he put all the plants on the table together and the plants looked very broken since there had been a lot of mudslides.

He was inspired by that and began to try to portray him, when he finished he realized that he had left a work of 10.

The Still Life of Game, Vegetables and Fruit by Juan Sánchez Cotán represents hunted birds, some hanging fruit and, on the right side, the enormous figure of a thistle. The still life was a very characteristic genre of the 17th century. Highlights in this still life are the variegation, strange to the painter since he used to prefer simple compositions with few elements, and the realism of the elements represented.

Girl with a Pearl Earring

2022-04-27 13:34:50 UTC

Vermeer’ girl in your turban and pearl:

I saw you once in The Hague, some sixteen years ago,

and now in New York, as part of this visiting show.

You haven’t changed, you famous girl,

your lower lip as moist and thoughtful

as the painter’s touch could render it, your eyes

resting sideways on mine, their gaze weighted by

that fullness of a woman’s eyeball.

I, I have changed by a great deal:

hair brown then now gray, heart fresh as paint

veined now by the crackling of too many days

hung in the harsh sun of the real.

You will outlive me, artful girl,

and with averted head will rest your moment’s glance

on centuries of devotees (barring mischance),

the light in your eyes like the light on your pearl.

Poem:
The man bent over his guitar,

A poor musician. The day was green.

They said: “You have a blue guitar!

You don't touch things as they are!”.

The man replied: “Things as they are

They change into the blue guitar.”

Then they said to him: “Play us something

Beyond us, that makes us feel ourselves,

An air on the blue guitar

Of things exactly as they are”.

Dancers in blue

2023-04-12 22:00:55 UTC

I don't know how long I had been there, the music seemed far away, every step took me far and far away.
My feet gently touched the ground, my shoulders move up and down with the rhythm of my breathing.
Each movement was so soft but so strong at the same time, my mind was in white but my body didn't stop.
The blue dress that accompanied the dance stood out the orange background of the amphitheater with big curtains and that give an autumnal atmosphere.
My movements were followed by my dance partners.
The fatigue degraded us but it was hidden with the steps and background song. The public was watching mindfully, I saw how their eyes lost in each hand, in each turn, in each hair that fell from our shoulders.
I don't remember what I'm doing, only my feet move by themselves.

This canvas is called “Surprised!” and was painted by Henri Rousseau, in 1891 in Paris, France. The technique is in oil paint on canvas and was exhibited in the museum of The National Gallery, London. This scene shows a tiger creeping through a jungle, when the storm is strong. Rousseau said that he painted this after fighting in a Mexican jungle as a soldier in the French army, but the story was made up-he never left France. In this work you can see that the sky is dark and the storm is very strong and this gains attention on the canvas. A curious fact about this canvas is that Rousseau said that the tiger was about to pounce on some unlucky explorers- that’s why he called the painting “surprise!”.

In Vincent's painting of the Starry Night,

A village sleeps under stars so bright.

A sleepy village rests, tucked in the night.

Its shiny streets, they whisper softly,

Of secrets held, of love lost and lonely.

In the quiet night, love's gentle gleam, Through windows shines, like a dream. In this artwork, a world's delight, Where stars twinkle, painting the night.

They are all alive

Even the moon bulges in it’s orange irons

to push children, like a good, from it’s eye
