Since I have already discussed my favorite painting<A man in armor> in discussion boards, so this time I am going to choose my favorite artiest who is Monet. The painting I chose is <Woman with a Parasol>. The first time I saw this painting was a copy in my school’s wall. It is different with other paintings that hang on the wall, what kind of difference? You might ask. As my opinion, it shares the same kind of difference with<A man in armor>.

I remember the first class of my art appreciation. Our professor told us to observe all these paintings in our school. I can still remember there are series of painting which describe the daily life of Mexican farmers. They are nice, I mean, maybe they provide some kind of research value for the sociologist to study Mexican culture. However, <Woman with a Parasol> is different; it is too beautiful. For example, “normal paintings” are like silver and gold, but paintings like <A man in armor>, <Woman with a Parasol> are pearls in the crown.

They just too gorgeous, I wouldn't buy a copy of <A man in armor> for my bedroom because compared to<A man in armor>, my bedroom is a rat's nest.

The woman and boy in <Woman with a Parasol> are Monet’s wife and son. Actually I don’t really know what Monet is trying to express in this painting, but this painting makes me dream.

Dream a wonderful dream, in this dream, it is a sunny day with a breeze. I am away from the crowded city, wondering in the Springfield, there are white flowers, fresh grass, and small dandelion. While I am wondering under a mound, there is shadow covered sunshine for me, so I raise my head. There it is, a woman with parasol. The breeze blows by her face, silk ribbons fly like butterflies. She wears a white dress, stand there looking at me. They are the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen, and the most beautiful scene I have never seen.
