My Favorite Art Nyan Pendyala Slide 2 Slide 3 Information about the Painting Title: The view of Toledo Artist: El Greco Date of Composition: c.1600 Artistic Era: Renaissance Slide 4 Why I like this Painting I like this painting because in most landscape paintings I have seen the time is either night, sunrise, sunset, or during the day, but this painting is during the twilight hour. The way el Greco formed the clouds is interesting, as well. This painting illustrates a quaint picture of a Spanish renaissance town. Slide 5 Slide 6 Information about the Painting Title: Bullfight, Suerte de Varas Artist: Francisco Jos de Goya y Lucientes Date of Composition: 1824 Artistic Era: Romanticism Slide 7 Why I like the Painting I like Bullfight, Suerte de Varas because the way Lucientes uses the colors makes the painting look somewhat like a photo. Secondly, he does not sugarcoat any of the details of a bullfight. Slide 8 Slide 9 Information about the Painting Title: Frozen Assets Artist: Diego Rivera Date of Composition: 1931 Artistic Era: Modern Slide 10 Why I like this Painting I like this painting because Rivera paints New York the center of the country and at the time the center of the world.
