The paint I have chosen is “Contemplation” is a painting by Eugene de Blaas. Italian painter Eugene de Blaas is well-known for his Academic Classicism-inspired pieces. The artwork, which was created about 1893, shows a young woman sitting on a balcony, wearing a blue skirt and a floral-patterned shawl, lost in contemplation. The original picture, which measures 54.6 by 34.9 cm, is in a private collection. In the painting, as previously stated there is a women sitting on a balcony lost in thought. She has curly hair and is wearing red lipstick. She seems to have a slight smile as if where every she is thinking about is more pleasant than negative. This piece symbolizes self reflection and contemplation. It could also symbolize deep though, calmness, and peace. I believe that the painting could be associated with reflecting and being lost in through but I could also be showing someone who is an over thinker. When I remake the drawing I would like to basically just cope the pose of the painting but maybe instead of being on a balcony I’m in a chair in a more modern setting. I would like to use an abstract background for my drawing as I would like it to imitate being lost in the mind.
