Image i don't like


Bell made this remarkable painting in 1914. It was a moment of sharp radicalisation in British avant-garde circles suddenly familiar with Cubism, Futurism and, in the summer before the outbreak of the First World War, the founding of Vorticism with its emphasis on abstraction. Although abstract composition was rare in her output, this demonstrates Bell’s participation in these developments. Her daring command of colour harmonies and simple structures reflect the theory of ‘Significant Form’ promoted by her husband Clive Bell.

I did not like this image because it did not have a lot of colours and it looks boring.

The Image i like
























Goncharova met her partner, the artist Michel Larionov, in 1900. This painting can be seen as a coded commentary on their life together. The two sides of the work are divided between male (shirts, collars and cuffs) and female (lace, blouses, aprons) items of laundry. The Russian inscriptions suggest a commercial launderette sign: 'Prache' is part of the word for 'laundry', 'b.s.' an abbreviation for 'white wash', and 'BOT' possibly part of the word 'rabota' meaning 'work'. The iron bears a monogram with the artist's initials ''NG''. Pasted form http://www.tate.org.uk/modern/explore/work.do?id=5399&action=1

I like this image because its looks good and it has lots of colour to its and i also like the type font.
