What man face down? When I first looked at that painting, all I saw was the two faced woman (duplicitous?) or was she wanting to turn (change her opinion?) yet she was too drowsy (lazy, ignorant?).
I'm enjoying reading both of your comments on this thread and although I don't know much about art, I do know what I love. I had the opportunity of seeing my favorites up close and personal, the impressionists. CM is my favorite although I really enjoy all of them.
I lingered in front of each of these paintings for a very long time because I actually felt the four seasons which were portrayed in the exhibit. I kept walking from one painting to the next then back again to see if it was some mind over matter effect, or if the gallery had different temperature settings or fans going. No, I really felt Summer heat, then the Winter is where I felt/heard silence and felt chilled, then Spring and my nose actually started itching.
Art evokes feelings, emotions, memories and sometimes good discussion.
Art is cool.
my son has his room filled with one local artist and my quiet room is filled with another local artist.
We all inadvertantly met today and all we could say was all ya'll serve purpose in giving us joy, peace and Prayful time in the Art we have chosen to line the walls of our home with.
