Midterm Question #9





My favorite idea is the artists represent our life and history by commemorating some special events, so that they can express our past time, present time and future time.  I chose the “Armistice night, 1918 by George Benjamin Luks because this painting shows us about important history event of mankind.  The artist made the painting to commemorate the armistice day on November 11 after the World War1 finished.  The painting represents our emotions such as delight and happiness by using vivid and various colors.  The artist wanted us to remember the day and to remind us of the war’s cruelty. So the artist allowed us to think about our past time, present time and future time by reflecting the history event.
