Compare And Contrast Yelim And Soyeon
Yelim and Soyeon went to Metropolitan Museum and we found diverse art works which are related to our theme “War”. There were a lot of art works that are related to the war and they are all different. There were winners and losers that fight in the battle and also the weather can express the victory of the war. Most of the paintings' weather were cloudy and rainy, also with fires. The reason why, the battle was cruel and horrible. All paintings and sculptures are about the battle and the authors portraits the soldiers who are rest after the war, or fight during the war. Most of the paintings weathers were cloudy that express the war and expression of soldiers were not happy enough. The sculptures are made with bronze and bronze can convey more emotion about war than any metals such as gold and silver. Based on “Rainy day in Camp”, the weather makes us feel depressed and tough moment. The word "War" also is not good word that cannot make people feel happy. If we hear war, we feel scared, depress, and worry. Rainy can also explained soldiers' feeling, moment of battle and victory. Lose at battle and also weather is rainy, the situations get worse. …show more content…
Background of this artwork is area of Civil war. Civil war happened in United States of America on April 1861 for freedom of slavery. That is why we felt a grim resolution from this artwork when we saw it at the first time. Five men at artwork are looked determined for war. For us, interesting was that their clothes are normal as daily clothes even though they are fighting as soldiers. Furthermore, we thought one men with black clothes and knife is a commander and he directs what the other men need to do. The other men seem waiting the commander’s order. Atmosphere of this artwork is desolated and bleak because citizen of America fought and killed each other for liberty of slavery. It represents people’s feelings of Civil war at that time very

    Analysis Of La Grande Illusion And Remarque's All Quiet On The Western Front

    During the first half of the 20th century, humanity experienced two consecutive world wars that were among the deadliest in history. This was a new type of warfare that the world had never seen before. It had Napoleonic-style battles but, instead of muskets and swords, they used machine guns and tanks; which produced countless more casualties. This horrible period of tension and war left over seventy seven million people dead and countless wounded or lost. However, the few soldiers that survived were sometimes able to channel their postwar trauma into great works of art that show us the pure truth about war. Two good examples…

    compacing Facing it and Dulce et Decorum

    “Facing it” by Yusef Komunyakaa and “Dulce et Decorum Est” by Wilfred Owen, are two powerful poems with the graphical life like images on the reality of war. It is apparent that the authors was a soldier who experienced some of the most gruesome images of World War I. In “Ducle et Decorum Est” Owen tells us about a personal experience in which he survived a chemical warfare attack. Although he survives, some of his fellow troops do not. As in “Facing It” Komunyakaa is also a soldier who has survived a war. Komunyakaa response to his war experience is deeply shaped by his visit to Lin’s memorial. Inspired by the monument, Komunyakaa confronts his conflicted feelings about Vietnam, its legacy, and even more broadly, the part race plays in America. Both author used imagery and symbolism as they wrote these poems. Owens describes the soldiers as being crippled, mentally and physically overcome by the weight of their experiences in the war. He compares the young men to “old beggars under sacks”, saying that war turns young men with a full life ahead of them, and optimistic views into beggars that have given up on life and believe that life is never going to get any better (lines 1 and 2). The imagery that he uses allows us to see how gruesome the war really was, and how it was not just something that was glorious and honorable. In the second stanza Owens continues to use similes to show imagery, while ecstasy usually means, an excessive amount of happiness, here it is used to describe how young me are shocked into trying to run for their lives from “Gas! (line1). As where Komunyakaa describes himself as a black person that hides in the darkness of that granite (line 1 and 2). Komuyakaa stands at the memorial realizing that is more that it appears; it is not just cold stone, but something he identifies with on a more deep and profound level. It is this deeper meaning that inspires his emotional response in lines 3-5. These Loading...Manning Page 3 lines show both his…

    Distinctively visual images can communicate important ideas to responders, allowing them to understand the perspective of the composer and the purpose of the text. In the “Shoe Horn Sonata” John Misto creates a play that surrounds two Prisoners of Wars (POW’s) characters who are forced to relive the memories of the past through an interview for a TV documentary.

    Dead tree trunks rise from the muddy ground and clouds of smoke obscure the view of the background. The searchlights piercing through the murky clouds give off a sense of lostness, but may also signify that among the barren wasteland, there is still a sign of humanity and hope. This painting exceptionally illustrates how the war changed beautiful, innocent meadows and fields into grotesque and frightening wastelands.…

    The artifacts on display represent the idea that art “legitimized political leader and enhance efforts in war” because of the clothing and weapons that were in display. The last section of the museum that we visited had “chief” outfits, the long hats that had feathers all the way around it and long outfits. In the same section of the museum there was also huge bows and arrows that were used when fighting. Next to the bows and arrows there were spheres that had a very long and sharp end to kill…

    Boston Photographs By Nora Ephron Analysis

    Moreover, the connection that I made with the essay by Franklin is that photography plays an important role in warfare because it allows people to view how war really is, and the impact that it has on the public. War is brutal, repulsive, and violent and that is just what war photography depicts. I connect with this essay because unlike the death of an individual photography of war does provide a purpose. It provides a purpose by allowing individuals to picture war as a mean to understand it and even avoid…

    Bruce Dawe Homecoming Themes Analysis

    The anti-war poem ‘Homecoming’ delineates the dehumanising aspect of wars upon the human race as a whole. With the usage of visual imagery throughout the poem, Dawe accomplishes in writing poetry that has an extensive universal appeal underlining the savage but real nature of war. “The noble jets are whining like hounds” produces a simile which accentuates the explicit baleful components of war. The quote produced despises dogs as sympathetic feelers of human emotion. For the deceased soldiers, there will be no great parade and music, only “the howl of their homecoming”. The famous twenty-one gun salute is also ridiculed. “Raises muzzle in mute salute”, further certifies the global idea of dogs as a man’s best friends, who sadly cannot voice their sorrow and grief in words. Even though these soldiers have made the fundamental sacrifice by giving up their lives, the fact that they get little or none what so ever acknowledgment for their heroic act except from their loyal companion; their dog, emphasizes the worldwide concept of war as dehumanising.…

    The Gallant Charge

    In United States’ history, there has never been a battle as influential and graphic as the Civil War (1861-1865). It was a revolution in several aspects, especially in media, becoming responsible for the first great surge of artistic representations during events of its time. Several of these depictions included certain aspects of the war such as the literal battlefield, fugitives and death--all of which is portrayed in The Gallant Charge of the 54th Massachusetts (Colored) Regiment. And while some works, like the lithograph, functioned as commemoration for the war, others were meant to disillusion the home front of its supposed glory through the display of the dark reality that…

    This is significant because children are often erased from the forethought of adult’s minds during the chaos and disorder involved in warfare; however, even when forgotten children endure and continue to act as children often do and they live out their childhood filled with much laughter and fun. This photograph uses visual elements such as lines, shapes, typography, texture, and form. In addition to the visual elements this photograph also has some visual principles like unity, space, hierarchy, balance, contrast, dominance, and similarity. Because of these visual elements and principles highlighting different parts of the photograph, the photo is able to convey a message that children can and will endure the tough times that come with warfare and continue to live out their childhood while experiencing the same joy and happiness that children living in more hospitable conditions…
