Visual Analysis The art that impressed me in the Getty Center is “Holy Family with Saints Anne, Catherine of Alexandria and Mary Magdalene” by Nosadella (Giovanni Francesco Bezzi).When I entered the room of this art, this is the first artwork attracted towards itself, probably the reason I went to Venetian art with big expectation of it will be beautiful among all Italian ones. The vibrant colors and contorted poses make this painting more vivacious. The sitting figures are from left is Virgin Mary

Manet’s Bar at the Folies-Bergère, one of the most perplexing and mysterious paintings to exist, holds deep meaning and reflects French social life in this era. This work of art illustrates a Parisian nightclub, the Folies-Bergère, which catered to a diverse set of acts including the circus and ballet. It is here that the Barmaid works and where we see the interaction between her and the gentleman. This is where an extremely important concept of the work appears- perspective. Throughout the years

For my museum experience I went to the Getty in Los Angeles. I ended up going around noon this past Sunday on April 10th because of my awesome time management skills (I’m a huge procrastinator). I was supposed to go with Katie, Sachy, and Victoria as a group, but they’re fake so we all ended up going at different times.Victoria and Sachy had already gone to a museum over spring break so Katie and I were going to go to the Getty together but that ended up not happening because her mom is also fake

Driving down the 405 freeway will now be a different experience for myself. Prior to the weekend of June 11, 2017, The Getty Museum was always a mystery.

When arriving we of course had to pay for parking, which was fifteen dollars for an all day parking pass. With the parking pass, the museum allows you to leave and return once within the same day. This is ideal

what you feel when you look at it. Walking through a museum, it’s like walking through emotions. There are so many different feelings and emotions you get depending on the work of art you’re experiencing. Both works of arts I got to experience at the Getty museum were very interesting and unique. The first work of art was A Walk at Dusk (1830-1835) by German artist Caspar David Friedrich. Its medium was oil on canvas with dimensions of 33.3 x 43.7 cm. The second work of art was Mornington Crescent with

For this essay, we were required to go to the Getty Villa in Malibu and look for specific works of art in the J. Paul Getty Museum. The Getty Villa is on a hill adjacent to Malibu beach and requires a reservation to get inside. They do not allow pedestrian entrances, so I had to take public transportation and show proof of my Metro bus receipt to get in. Once inside, I took a shuttle up a curvy hill to the actual museum. When I got to the actual entrance, I was taken aback by how beautiful not only

Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center in Los Angeles, California on Thursday, December 11, 2014. I had originally planned to visit the National Museum of Art and History in Washington D.C., but I found myself in Los Angeles due to the birth of my Grandson. I attended the museum by myself. The Getty Museum was originally started in 1954 in J. Paul Getty’s home in Pacific Palisades. After Getty’s death, the Getty Trust took over the museum. The collection eventually outgrew the site and the Getty Center

Should Museums Repatriate Ancient Artifacts to their Country of Origin? Ancient artifacts are the symbols of human civilization. All of them are priceless and cannot be measured by currency value. Repatriate is a controversial problem because of the various reasons. For instance, the aggressor took all of the captures back to their home countries and showed them to the public, during the war. Voyagers took other countries’ artifact to prove they had been in that place. Archeologists, anthropologists
