RE: What is a Picture? What is Representation?

in #aesthetics7 years ago

I believe that the point a painting is not to present the reality, but to present the painters view and feelings about a certain part of the reality.

"Las Meninas" is amazing, very intriguing and uncommon! The man who appears to be pausing on the stairs in the background to take a look adds to the mystery significantly.

Cheers! : )

Yes that man is creating a great depth to the picture :)
