2nd EXAM

This artwork or painting shows the early use of flowers as an ornament in modeling or in
this case as part of a painting that is worn by the model. A models face is bare and
emotionless in this painting his emotion is like looking at something and he is angry or
disappointed. A message is present in this painting in a way that the artist of this artwork
is showing us that a flower is not a symbol of feminist, but rather a medium to highlight
the beauty of the wearer. In this painting the model is already a masterpiece with him
holding a pipe, but with the flowers it is a mystery why a pipe which is used in smoking is
in a portrait with a flower. A flower is a part of nature which provides oxygen and absorbs
carbon dioxide, while the pipe is a tool in which it creates carbon dioxide. If we deepen
our understanding it is absurd to see two objects that contradict each other in a way that
the smoke from the pipe could potentially kill the flower. In life we may not expect that
those who are with us, those who are beside us might harm us they show their good side
but once we light their anger up they will emit their smoke of revenge that can harm us.
This painting shows us that it may look harmless we must be careful and deeply know the
characteristic of things, being cautious is sometimes being related to being judgmental
yet this is wrong. Because there is nothing wrong if we are careful with things because
sometimes we don’t know those who might hurt us are hiding in plain sight.
