The lady in red is the only beautiful figure in the picture, I believe the story behind the painting La Mariee is about some lady who felt she was surrounded by a bunch of weirdos. They try to be her friend, but she looks away, facing toward us while the rest see her beauty. She thinks the violin player looks like a goat faced freak, and yet others like mindless animals, like fish and chickens. There is still one who wanders around, trying to make her even better looking, handing her white flowers and admiring the red cloak as she faces out of her blue, two-dimensional world. The striking colored woman is probably looking at us, because she wants to know what it is like to have a normal life.
I found this rather humorous, although I feel as though you skipped out on the detail, especially the details that describe how the woman sees the people of the city. Also, you never told the reader how the woman feels about the guy, who brings her flower and admires her. Overall I really enjoyed reading this.
ReplyDeleteI feel as though this is very well thought out but it is missing some details such as why does she have a wedding gown on etc.... but overall very well put together.
