  10. The museum I virtually visited was The Getty in Los Angeles. The artwork that I liked was "Philosophy Presenting the Seven Liberal Arts to Boethius" by the Coetivy Master. I liked it because it showed the fashion during the 1400's and I like learning about fashion.

  11. The museum I visited was the Louvre in Paris. I visited the architect section. My favorite piece of art ( architect) was the pyramid in the Cour Naopleon . It was the marking of the french revolution, and was a new symbol for the museum.

  12. The museum I visited was The Getty in Los Angeles. The artwork that I liked had no name but was known as the Night View of Trees and Street Lampby Lyonel Feininger. I liked this piece of art because of the way the artist used the shading, it looks like fog is coming in and i also like how the artist outlined the tree's it gives them volume and helps it become the emphasis of the work

  13. The museum I visited was The J Paul Getty museum in Los Angeles. The artwork that I liked is named A Winter Scene with Two Gentlemen Playing Colf created by a Dutch artist Hendrick Avercamp from 1615-1620. He use Pencil,pen and ink, and gouache . I like this drawing because of the simplicity and very detail feeling it gives off. This drawing has a fore ground,middle ground and back ground,the artist gave his drawing three different layers. Overall the the artwork is balance and follows the rule of thirds.

  14. The museum I visited was the Whitney Museum of Art.One art peice that caught my eye was "The Subway" by George Tooker.I thought this was an interesting piece because it is very realilistic but there are so many people in the picture,it looks like there are reflections everywhere.Eventhough the painting is very simple;there is a lot going on.The emphasis is the lady in the red dress in the rule of thirds.Another thing that makes "The Subway" intreresting is that it has more than one vanishing point.
