ENG 274 Blog post number four:The most overated picture ever!
The Renaissance was an amazing time period in our history as humans. But at the same time it proved just how mentally fragile our brains are. Here we have a painting a a woman sitting down. She has no eyebrows and the scenery behind her is land possibly owned by her husband. The original portrait draws millions to want to see it and it further exemplifies the fact that someone can make something seem more special that what it is with mind control and the right words. This one has never stopped being talked about and I believe this is done purposely so that companies can make more money. I was compelled to write about this portrait because it reflects my life. I've always called out the intelligence of others while "sticking to my guns" when it came to what made sense to me. This is why I always had to fight against the world it seems. I'm a free thinker and I don't agree with the majority decision as my heart doesn't fear neglect for I have faced it numerous times. It funny how people who view this "work of art" as more than what it is consider themselves intelligent. The irony in this is that they don't know their sheep.
