TECHNIQUES AND PHILOSOPHY USED ON PALAZZO DA MULA PAINT

“TECHNIQUES AND PHILOSOPHY USED ON PALAZZO DA MULA PAINT” When I saw the Palazzo da Mula painting I could tell that it was taken from the city of Venice without relying on the actual subject. The water around the buildings was enough to come to this conclusion. I see about three to four buildings connected to each other, there are many “big” windows on each building that has a round looking style. The front building looks like this is the main building due to the fact that it has what looks like two main entrances in the front and they are painted in black color. I can see a typical gondola boat next to the main building by itself. The water looks calmed and cannot really tell which way it is moving. There are also about four poles attached to the edges of the buildings, it must be used to secure the boats. There are two balconies in the top of the front building and one located on the left had side building. This painting looks really blurry when I look at it up close and the description I made was based on what I saw and what was common of sense. Once I step away from my computer and look at the painting, I can see a little bit better, especially the wa

Based on the bright colors displayed in the water, I came to the conclusion it reflects an afternoon in Venice with a sunshine that makes the building colors reflect on the water. It gives the "impression" that the painting was a sensation of the original landscape. In conclusion, the philosophy of impressionism was applied to this painting, I can support my conclusion by pointing out that the painting does not maintain detailed outlines, and also there aren"tmt any strict rules of composition. The blue color is the most notorious used on this painting and it could because of the factor that the water gives such idea, we are used to believe that sky and water is always blue and this probably had an influence to use this color. The colors used on this painting was pretty much a realistic image of what we are used to see as far as the city of Venice and it structure looks like. I did not see them before due to the color contrast and it was kind of camouflaged against the building. The water was probably the main difference when I stepped away because I looked clearly and I was able to see the color differences. I was also able to find out that there were not only one, but also two gondola boats next to the main building.
