This  painting is located in the Metropolitan Museum of Art of New  York . He used brighten assorted pure cold colors with the little of  mixing . Thick and short  brush strokes called impasto  to capture the light of the moment, not giving much relevance to the shapes.

THE MONA LISA - JAVIER GURPEGUI 3°ESO A

The face of Lisa is rounded and her nose is small.
She has dwarf eyebrows, a very tiny mouth and her smile is also non-existent.
You can see her hands are interlaced, because Leonardo prefered that action instead of using a ring. This represents Lisa as a virtuous woman and faithful wife.

This is the portrait that I choosed, it is from Joan Miró.

Miró drew this abstract portrait inspired by Picasso.

 As you can see, he has very strange factions, he has enormous ejes and strange- shaped eyebrows.

He has lots of wrinkles, so you can guess that it is an old man, but, it is a bit  confusing because of his black hair and huge head.

His ears are ver  strange and abstract, well, the paint in general remains you the abstract movement of portraits.

Description of a portrait

This portrait was drawn by Velázquez.

It's unknown who the man is, but he also appears on other pictures made by Velázquez.

The man has a huge fronthead. His eyebrows are tiny compared to his forehead.

He has small eyes and a big nose. He also has a curly moustache and a very small chin.

Diego Velázquez finished this portrait in 1624, while he was working for the king, Felipe IV.
In the portrait we can see the oval king´s face made-up, with sad and expresive eyes, a white skin and a brown and wavy hairstyle. He wore his armor with a red cloth in his shoulder.

Self-portrait, PABLO PICASSO

Pablo Picasso in this portrait  appears with a really bad look, standing out his face. The shadow of the hat covers the entire forehead. He has very small and narrow eyes and a big nose. This portrait for me mostly shows sadness because he’s with lots of wrinkles and a few scars. He’s wearing a dark coat and the image is all in black and white.

LA GIOCONDA

La Gioconda is probably the most famous paint of Leonardo da Vinci. It was paainted using a method called sfumato. The paint is currently at the Louvre museum. In the portrait appears a woman sitting in an armchair. She doesn´t have eyebrows and eyelashes. It was originally painted with eyelashes and with better visible eyebrows, but that these had gradually disappeared over time, perhaps as a result of overcleaning. Some scientists think that the woman was pregnant because of the position of her arms. The landscape of the left is different of the lanscape of the right. However both landscapes are the town of Bobbio.
                                     


                                  

SELF-PORTRAIT OF LEONARDO DA VINCI BY ELENA ARIAS

This self-portrait is one of the best known drawings by Italian painter. It was painted around 1513 and is located in the Royal Library of Turin. Leonardo performed all his drawings, including sketches, attention to detail. If you look closely at the picture, he realizes every hair, every hair of the beard, is made with great precision, although the face is not finished; indeed missing the top of the front and back of the beard but gives the impression of being. This drawing has a truly amazing behind history: Leonardo's death, he fell into the hands of Francesco Melzi his faithful collaborator who had inherited all manuscripts and drawings, and the death of the latter, the entire collection was dispersed among the children of Melzi and this portrait was assigned, sold, etc., and was not heard from again. It reappeared in the early nineteenth century in Milan. In the picture you can see that here Leonardo was old because of the wrinkles that have eyes, dark circles together. We also appreciated having a sad and serious expression, which is what Leonardo wants to express.

SELF-PORTRAIT OF VINCENT VAN GOGH BY JUAN BARAHONA

We have a self-portrait of Vincent van Gogh in 1889. It is a sample of the Post-Impressionist painting. It is currently in the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, Francia .The work shows us the author, in good form after suffering a serious health crisis shortly before. However, his eyes show that he is full of concerns and problems. Van Gogh employs a very personal technique for painting the background, costume and hair: lines wavy blue (background and costume) and oranges (hair); In contrast to this,there are marked much lines in other areas such as the eyes. In this self-portrait, in short, raw expression of character and emotions/concerns. Van Gogh is characterized by infusing a great symbolism to its work by means of color and line. Among his works we emphasize "The starry night", his self-portraits and "Bedroom of van Gogh".This work belongs to the impressionism. This art is based on the search of feelings, is trying to capture in the works.

A girl with a pearl earring from Vermeer - Marta de Sevilla

Title: A girl with a pearl earring
Author: Johannes Vermeer

Year: 1665-1667
Movement: Baroque and Dutch Golden Age
Technique: Oil on canvas

The most important parts of this portrait are the colours and the shadows. Vermeer’s use of light highlighted the earring and the face.

There are many theories about the identity of the woman, these are some of them:

-She could be Vermeer’s oldest daughter.

-Vermeer’s servant, Griet.

-Or the daughter of Vermeer’s main commissioner.

She’s a gorgeous woman, with big, brown eyes and a small nose. She has tiny eyelashes. She has a blue and yellow turban on her head, a popular complement in this age, from Orient.

SELFPORTRAIT OF CARAVAGGIO BY CARMELA PALACIOS

TITLE: Selfportrait

AUTHOR: Caravaggio

MOVEMENT: Tenebrismo

TECHNIQUE: Oil and canvas

Caravaggio is a painter of the Barroque.

El Caballero Anciano from El Greco - Mateo Cifuentes 3ºC [Reposted]

  -I chose this portrait from El Greco because I like the way he draws everything stretched. It's called "Caballero Anciano"

     -Title: El Caballero Anciano.    
     -Author: El Greco.
     -Period: Spanish Renassaince.
     -Year: Arround the 1590.
     -Technique used: Oil on canvas.

     It represents an anonimous knight. Provably from Toledo, as it was a very important city, also where he lived.          
    
     This portrait follows El Greco's characteristic style: Painting all the figures taller and thiner than in reality. 
   
     For this portrait, the technique used was oil on canvas. He got to paint perfectly all this old man's characteristics through thick and thin brushstrokes and using very dark colours to possibly express the sadness in his last years of life. His old age is also expressed with small balds and white hair on his head. His thinness also express that he is not a very rich man.

REMBRANDT´S SELF-PORTRAIT BY MAITE SUSO

HERE IS THE REMBRANDT´S SELF-PORTRAIT I´M WORKING ON:

1st) It´s the original image (that I´ve looked for in google images) about Rembrandt´s self-portrait.

2nd) It´s the engraving I´ve done in a linocut.

3rd) It´s the final result that I´ve obtained when I printed the engraving with ink.

In this painting we´re looking at an old man.

 All starts when Rembrandt thought he was

 dealing with a gorgeous, smart and handsome

  guy, himself . But when he started getting old

his perfect look changed so he decided to also

paint the ugliness, realism.

We now can analyze it in this picture with the

following features:

-The original paiting shows the darkness and

only focus his faces with a light streak.

-The elderly man has several wrinkles because

of his age.

-Due to his depression, his eyes, eyebrows

 and eyelids express sadness.

-His hair is yellowish and it´s worn-out.

-He also has huge ears but a thin, tiny and

 clearly defined mouth.

-His cheecks are large as his chin, but he has no beard. 

• The most obvious aspect of Rembrandt’s late style is that the brushwork is, in general,

broader. Individual brushstrokes sometimes remain visible, although the differentiation in the

brushwork is extraordinary. Rembrandt is also known as a painter of light and shade, and of

course as an artist whos technique, REALISM, would lead some critics to claim that he used

to prefer ugliness to beauty. 

I´ve looked for the information on the internet in different web pages.
