LACMA visit




for the 2nd paper, i chose to write about Neri Di Bicci’s ‘Virgin and Child with Saints and Angels'. I had this chance to not only write about the art but also was able to "see" what real art was; and how it felt looking at the actual piece. but to be honest, something that really impacted my view of the art was 'placement' of the art. the picture on the right shows the placement. before I found where Di Bicci's Virgin and Child with Saints and Angels was, i thought it would be placed in the center, but becuase it wasnt, it made made my way of feeling alittle different. (maybe alittle less important- but of course, its just my opinion and it's not true!) Im just writing this blog to show that visiting museum and seeing the actual art could really turn out art differently.
