Image Essay #5


In this picture there is a lot going on. The artist does a good job of using unity with the two red faces. Also if you look at the two red faces long enough you will begin to notice that the two faces form a shape of a chalice in the background. The girl at the top of the image gives this picture a very elegant almost sleepy look to it. The soft features in her face, the red lingerie and the lacy black dress are what give it this feeling. Also the smoky like texture used on the background, and the grouping of the pictures contribute to this feeling greatly. The three main figures have sort of a triangular positioning, and then which draws your eye in to see the blue chalice. The blue chalice in the background really contains your eye and keeps it from flowing right off the page.
