Fascinating Art!

I really enjoyed exploring The Metropolitan Museum of Art. They had a lot of variety of art; sculpture, and paintings. I'm really fascinated with horses and floral things so there were several of paintings that caught my eyes. The first one was,"Two Horses" by Unkoku Toetsu(Japanese artitst). Just love the black and white and how Toetsu use the technique to draw the horses' hair.


Next, also caught my attention. "Maria Luisa of Param" (1751-1819) by Laurent Pecheux.I find this funny because she has an undergarment that makes her dress very wide. However, her dress is beautiful with the floral design and it makes the dress look elegant. I also love the colors Mr. Pecheux use and how he added the objects to fit the painting.
