'La Liberte guidant le peuple\r'
'Art is beyond the limitations of field boundaries and its values should be dual-lane by mass from all oer the world eternally. When tal fairy about contrivance, I have to say that France Is my favorite country for the representation of artistic creation, as the country has a large report for pursuing art and fashion since Louis XIV, the King of Sun, who Is a king keen on the pursuit of art and fashion. Therefore In this summer I took the opportunity to go to Louvre Museum In Paris to pay a trim down to the famous 011 picture order of battles in the museum.In this essay, I would akin to choose one of the famous oil paint La Liberty command el people from my personal linear perspective of gendered art. On entering the museum, I could sensation a strong atmosphere of history and a deep mavin of reverence rose deep from my soul. Then I saw the famous painting bony by Delicacies. In the middle of the painting is a young French dame who is calling on her villagers to f ight against the restitution of Bourbon in July Revolution.The char is half b ar-assed in the upper part of her organic structure, with her breasts out. On her right hand, she is memory a sword lily with three colors, which represent freedom, par and philanthropist. forthwith the flag has become the national flag of the Republic of France. On her left-hand(a) hand, she was seizing a long gun with a sharp knife on It. though she Is wearing a long dress, we net see her legs ar powerful and firm, and she Is jumper lead the s former(a)iers to move forward across the deadened bodies and the ruins of the bulldogs.The background of this painting is set forwards Notre Dame in Paris where at that place is full f the smokes from gunpowder, which shows that the war is in its hottest point. Most of the critiques believe that she is the symbol of freedom, with nifty passion and romantic characters. To look at the fe phallic in detail, we shadow find oneself that this char sh ows a temperawork forcet of maleness different from her own gender.Different from buttocks Burgers conventional opinion on man and woman in artistic work ups, which means that a mans presence is dependent upon the promise of power, date a womens presence expresses her own military strength to herself, or his belief that men counselling on the outside while women pore on the inner part noon Berger, 1 990), here a sense of cross-gender Identification Is emphasized In the work as a way of masking opposition to the old binary system. As a result, the symbolic meaning In this painting Is evident.Just as the view from womens rightist that ââ¬Å"gender is a social social organizationââ¬Â this painting seems to reconstruct our social average about the binary system. Traditionally, gender is presented as biological and predetermined rather of a culturally constructed, external performance (Sloop, 2004). So although the women act like men, their female dies argon inscribed wit h sexual frailty—a weakness that can only be matched by masculine strength as their rescuer is physically privileged (Sarah Cornfield, 2011).This painting seems to doubt that: why men should be prior to women? As is seen, on the left side of the painting, there is a dead, make out male body, whose lower part of the body Is naked. Also, beside the leg of the woman, there Is a male enemy whose seems to be begging for the grace of the woman and the working crystallize. These two characters be uncommon in the paintings, as they show the weakness of male In trench. end-to-end the history of OLL painting, male Image seldom appears weaker than female image, according to the introduction of John Berger.What is more, on the painting: he is holding his gun high up his repoint alongside with the woman. Contrary to use a strong and matured male as the hero in the painting, the existence of a young boy, though not so powerful than a strong male, represents the consent emerging in th e new world. On the left side of the woman, there are two men dressing very(prenominal) fashionably. They represent the emerging working class who are fighting against the Bourbon. But they are not the main characters in this painting, as their existence is for the purpose to highlight to woman representing freedom.After all, all of the unusual and creative arrangements by the jaguar here in circumstance want to suggest us that everything old will be ruined and a new social norm found on love freedom and equality will be set up in the future. To sum up, the bold imagination, the well-heeled implied meanings in this work all open to its successes during the whole history. This painting gives us a romantic and ideal feeling in the severe war, and constructs our traditional conception on gender, that women not always appear as a weak image and women can be more powerful men to some extent.However, in the same conviction I also admit the situation that differences between male an d female do exist. And in the whole painting history, as Berger has pointed out, the ââ¬Å"idealââ¬Â is always assumed to be male and the image of the woman is intentional to flatter him. In my opinion, as long as the painting present people with the aesthetic characters of masculinity and femininity instead of torturing them. I admire the painter Eugene\r\n'
