Courbet


In this image, there are three men and a dog. Two of these men are dressed in formal garb of the 1700's. The man on the right, is a traveler and he has a walking stick. They look as if they're on a country side road and conversing on this and that. The colors are subdued and very solid. The image is symetrical, the fore/background division is in the middle, theres four characters on the page, and both groupings take up equal amounts of relative space.

The image has a very casual feel, more the colors give it away and the way the men stand infront of the traveler. It flows together well and the colours are harmonizing with eachother. The way the characters are standing, it allows the eye to flow with them and keeps your attention.

This image is pleasing to the eye and keeps you there, i really like the way the characters have this interaction. The colours flow very well together and the basics of the image just keep it simple and good.
