Describe a statue or another work of art that you have seen
You should say:
-What it looks like
-Where you saw it
-When you saw it
-What Impressions of this work of art you had
I have to confess that I am neither a real connoisseur of art nor an art expert. Also, I seldom visit art galleries and museums. So, unfortunately, I haven’t seen a lot of art objects.
But there is one piece of art that moved me a great deal. I saw it in an art gallery while I was travelling a few years ago.
When I saw the painting, I gasped in amazement as its size was mind boggling. And it looked lifelike.
To tell the truth, if I hadn’t known that it was just a painting, I would have thought I was looking out of a huge window.
This picture depicted picturesque rural landscape. In the foreground there were a few nice small cottages with beautiful gardens, people doing their everyday chores, cows and ducks.
The dominating colours in the foreground were bright. At first glance, the scene seemed peaceful, and it showed that humanity tamed nature as it yields the necessities we need to live.
In the far distance I could make out the outline of Majestic Mountains. There were dark clouds which gathered over the mountain tops.
And they seem to be slowly moving towards me. I think the artist skilfully managed to capture this contrast.
I don’t know what message the artist wanted to deliver, but for me it was like a silent reminder that humanity is small and impotent in front of raging rivers, violent storms, and other natural phenomena.
I was more than impressed by this painting. It is a real pity that now I can’t recall the name of the artist and that Masterpiece.
