About this event
When one looks at a painting, we might be impressed with the technique that it showcases, how it reflects reality, or the emotion that it inspires. Discover how artists intentionally arrange elements within their pieces to create impactful visuals. With docent Leslie Bethell as our expert guide, examine the work of such renowned artists as Jean-Léon Gérôme, Camille Pissarro, Raphael Sanzio da Urbino, Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta, and Edgar Dégas. This virtual tour will delve into analyzing artworks within the Walter's collection through the lens of artistic composition techniques, such as balance, gradation, repetition, contrast, harmony, dominance, emphasis, and unity. This is our docent's favorite tour!
