Picasso and Perugino: Painting Comparison

             The Picasso and the Perugino paintings in the art book are in no way really similar; they are infact very different aside from the fact that the main piece of the painting is a female. The colors used in Picasso's Weeping Woman are a lot of Brights. But the colors in Perugino's The Virgin and Child with Saints uses nice colors, neither bright nor dull but there are many different colors in both of the paintings.

The Perugino has more colors then I can really count but he didn't use brights its more or less just regular colors but he uses the colors great to get the details of the painting out and helps you get a better feel for the painting. Some of the colors he uses are lots of blues, whites, greens, and some reds. The colors in both are very well chosen I think that the colors chosen are what really make the paintings what they have come to be "two of the best paintings made by each respective artiest."
             Lines: In the Perugino there aren't really too many lines in this painting. I feel that this painting is right out front as in he doesn't try to hide any thing some painters put hidden messages in there paintings or what they paint means something different then it really looks it doesn't appear that this
