Graphics: Photo composite project


I really loved this project we just did for Graphics. I chose an art history theme (in case you couldn't tell... hehe).

The seascape/silhouette is a Monet painting called San Giorgio Maggiore at Twilight (or ''at dusk''), the statues on the beach are the Venus of Milo and Michelangelo's David, the paintings in the water are Man in a Red Turban by Jan Van Eyck and Da Vinci's Mona Lisa, there's also Da Vinci's Last Supper and lastly The Great Wave by Hokusai.

No, the bench, beach, and boat are not from famous pieces of art. I just added them in for flair.

  1. I think it works in your advantage that you included the things that weren't art history. It kind of resembles a play off modern museums. They put us on benches to view all of these works for a limited time. The whole process of art viewing can be overwhelming. I think you've done a good job in including the audience as a part of art history.
