• I chose this painting because of how important this is to. This is because I am a devout Christian and I know a lot about Jesus’ life.

• I chose this picture because it is a very good representation of how an actual mother treats her children. I love this painting because it brings back memories form when I was a kid cradled in my mothers arms. My cousins actually used to call me crying Ryan because I always cried for my mother. I love this painting and my mother.

Important Information

• Title-Monalisa• Artist-Fernando Botero• Date of composition-1978• Artistic era-Postmodernism and

Deconstructivism

• I chose this painting because it is very intricate and well draw. I also like a lot of this artists paintings. How he draws most of his paintings with fat people is different, but I seem to like how Fernando does this. I think its trying to convey that even though she is larger then in real life the paintings and Monalisa are still beautiful.
