A Long Day underneath the Sun


Art is a word which surrounds us everywhere in the world. There are many types and many ways of art, for instance, painting, drawing, natural beauty, and statues. Van Gogh is one of the most famous artists in the world. He is popular by his painting and drawing which are very rare to explore a new artist person who has the same quality of working. When I watched his painting, I really got interested on tableau, which I called it a long day underneath the sun. When I saw this painting for the first time, I really felt something strange on it. It shows the gloomy and the cheerful in the same time. The age of this painting feature could be on the middle ages. This painting shows the real life in that century. Although that life is harder than our life in this century, it was simpler than now. As I felt while I was looking at the painting, it showed me the Dark Age. In the painting, the sunrise made me feel that it spread the hopeful and happy .the colors on this painting make the place look warm and safe. Finally, it is not wrong to have our own feelings about any painting, although the artist has his\her idea about their painting. (Every great work of art has two faces, one toward its own time and one toward the future, toward eternity). Daniel Barenboim
