In Danger by Hendrik Willem Mesdag

by: Mariana Adieb


In my conversation at the museum, I included many descriptions to account for the overall general picture and also the small details in it. I discussed formal properties such as the shape and lines that can be drawn for deeper analysis and the painter's choice of color, tone and composition. In the middle and toward the end, I asked questions about the art, in which I think about ideas that cannot be answered by just observing the painting. If I had more time, I would have included more interpretation of the artist's intention and also add historical context.
