Work Of Art True Love
948 words
Love is not a god as the fine philosophers of
Greece once suggested. Love is something far more
powerful and universal, for not all people believe
in gods, yet people cannot refuse the existence of
love. Instead, love is a condition of the human
body that cannot be denied. True love is
obstinate; in the way that music pours into the
ears of an audience, love pouring into the heart
of a man cannot be stopped, denied, or set off
course. Love is a natural instinct. You cannot
artificially make love...

The Last Supper was a very powerful Biblical
event, in which Jesus and his disciples gathered
for one final dinner together. According to the
Bible, important events took place during the Last
Supper, including an announcement by Jesus that

sixteenth centuries, it was necessary to give
proper deference to such notable occurrences. Both
Leonardo da Vinci and Jacopo Robust, known as
Tintoretto, took upon...

Philippe Auguste Paul Cezanne Art

After fifty years of the most radical change in
art from images to free abstraction, Czanne's
painting, which looks old-fashioned today in its
attachment to nature, maintains itself fresh and

produced no school, but he has given an impulse
directly or indirectly to almost every new
movement since he died. His power to excite
artists of different tendency and temperament is
due, I think, to the fact that he realized with
equal fullness so many dif...

Michelangelo Creation Of The Heavens

loving and compassionate, and man as he was first
created; pure, noble, and innocent. From the
Sistine Chapel, The Creation of the Heavens, as it
is titled, shows his view of God perfectly and
clearly. In fact, the image shows the way others
