Title: Woman with Red Hair
Authour: Albert Herter
Date: 1894

I found this image on google. I liked this picture because it stood out amongst the other selections. This painting was created by Alber Herter. In the painting he mixed various historic styles. There is a medieveal background and the gown has Renaissance- inspired design. It is an ode to classical and renaissance poses.
This painting was well put together. It is really intriguing to learn that the themes are not from one era. This means that there was different concepts added to the painting. The woman is sitting apparently looking away from the painter. The painting portrays her to be emotionless. There is no emotion coming from her eyes or her smile. I like the fact that while she is emotionless, the painting has alot of emotion because of the things surronding her. Everything else in painting is colorful and full of life. I thought it was an oxymoron that the person has no life but the things that are lifeless do.
