Claude Monet At The National Gallery Of Art

Claude Monet at the National Gallery of Art Claude
Monet is most definately my favorite Painter of
all time. Widely considered the foremost
Impressionist painter, Monet inspired Masters like
Degas and Renoir. Monet's paintings, characterized
by their blurred lines, quick brush strokes and
interpretation of light, capture the essence of
the subject without the harsh realism of previous
centuries. Earlier on in his career Monet's
paintings attempted to catch the momentary light
and mobility of his...

Mental Events Person Perspective
868 words
The relation of consciousness to the material
world is puzzle, which has its origin in dualism,
a philosophy of mind which posits their
fundamental separation. Dualism, in turn, has its
roots in folk wisdom. The belief that humans are
more than bodies and that there is something in
human nature that survives bodily death has its
origins in prehistory; it becomes explicit in the
mythology of Ancient Egypt and Assyria and was
formulated into a philosophical position in the
Platonic thought of Anci...

Ethical Egoism Invisible Hand
1,087 words
Ethical Egoism, like all other moral philosophical
theories, tries to develop a comprehensive set of
rules by which each person should govern their
lives. Instead of approaching each daily decision
separately and interpreting the correct response,
philosophers try to find an overall nucleus of
rules that will guide each person in their daily
lives. This is obviously not an easy task. Ethical
egoism tries to solve the problem in terms of
maximizing ones individual good. Many people would
say that...

flamboyance, and creative genius and with his
little dramatic training showing his natural

Male Or Female Male And Female
1,553 words
Is It a Boy or a Girl? On the surface, people tend
to look at gender as a very definable yes or no
matter and fail to see the variations that exist.
Underneath the surface there exists a minority
group who experience gender dysphoria: unhappiness
or discomfort experienced by one whose sexual
organs do not match ones gender identity. So,
unless there exists an absolute distinction
between identifying male from female, then
classifying a transgender female as male is a
product of gender identifica...

Dorian Gray Isn T

Throughout time, art has been cherished as a
gateway to provoking thought from a hemisphere of
the brain most people would otherwise rarely use.
A person who has strength in both logic and
creativity has always been praised as an enriched
mind. Understanding art can bring about emotions
and thoughts that can be both positive and
harmful. It is easily understood, then, that these
feelings can effect our decisions and actions in
real life. The art can therefore become animate or
alive, in a sense....

The portrait. A single person immortalized forever
on canvas. At first glance, you only see the
subject. With a more analytical eye, though, you
not only see the image but you begin to hear the
voice of the painter and of his time. This is what
I hope to do, to feel and understand the mind of
the painter Ingres when he painted Louis-Francois
Bertin and Reynolds when he painted General John
Burgoyne. In the portrait of Bertin, Ingres has
captured on canvas a man who has never been
pampered in his...
