Giotta, 1312: Madonna Enthroned (1st. Painting)Francisco Goya: May 3, 1808 in the Padro, Madrid I found the Giotta, Madonna Enthroned painting to be the most interesting because the power and love the painting displays. The personal values in this particular painting, such as the colors caught my eye because; the colors in this painting are almost bronzed. To me bronzed shows heroism. A very rich colored painting with the golden brown colors mixed with some blues and deeper browns, and just a touch of red gives this particular painting character. It also shows how old this painting is. Another way color works in this painting is the dark, bold, black gown that is being worn on "Madonna" stands out and shows power as a mother. The child on her lap in this painting has a bold face stare just as the mom does. Showing how serious and disciplined it was in those times between mother and child. The prophets in the painting are surrounding the mother and child and looking up at the two prophets holding crowns. They seem to almost be looking up in prayer. There are two angels kneeling at the bottom of the throne. The angels show how holy and sacred the mother and child are together. The
Goya's painting represents only that of fear and death. The wars and executions show survival, yes. Showing darkness in the painting could refer to how the men being executed may have felt. The value of a bond and the love shared among those around them. The practice of religion and prayer are two similar aspects in today's society. " Showing prayer and authority with the crowns and the baby on their lap, these particular paintings subject matter is one of holy and sacred closeness. The human value represented here is very low moral values. I see equality in this painting and I also see prestige and honor. This painting of Goya's represents death, hatred, war and survival. But, also fighting and hatred and that is not anything that I can relate to. The interpretation of the people in this painting is that of prisoners and soldiers. The men about to be executed seem to be on their knees with arms in the air, just kneeling there hopeless, and powerless probably frightened to death. The second painting I chose, is the painting created by, Francisco Goya, The Prado, Madrid. In concluding my two paintings I selected. angels are protecting and watching over.
