For the next blog post, I chose to go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In this museum, I got to see many different type of art in various time periods; such as the Greek and Roman art, Egyptian art, Modern and Contemporary art, European Paintings, Asian art, and Arts of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas. I enjoyed looking at the similarities and differences shown in each time period. Going with a friend also made it more enjoyable as we shared opinions and thoughts of each paintings as we walked through the museum. The Met was really big and spacious, I think I spent at least an hour to two in there browsing at every painting and reading their descriptions. I also went to this museum for my art assignment as well which is another reason why I spent a lot of time in the museum since I had to find a painting from four different categories.

My favorite time period art is Post Impressionism art, as you can see in the picture above. The art style in this time period really have no set way on drawing something and everything is drawn distinctly and variously. Even though some paintings could look really off and weird, that’s the aspect of Post Impressionism art; it’s different and unique. The painting that is in the picture is called A Sunday on La Grande Jatte and within this painting, it looks like a jig-saw puzzle because the colors are separated yet blended together side by side which makes the art stand out compared to the other paintings in this section.
