Title of painting: Gazing at Peace
Name of artist: Konstantinos Parthenis
Year produced: 1938
Country of origin: N/A
Context: In the painting “Gazing at Peace” there is a man and it looks like he's holding a pick axe. The man is dressed in regular clothing. He's staring out at the sky or whatever is in front of him. There are birds and clouds in the picture and it’s colored in bright colors so I believe it takes place during the day.
Artist: He was born to an Italianmother and a Greek father in Alexandria. He studied from 1895 to 1903 at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. When his studies were finished he moved to Paris in 1903 then he lived in Greece, where he worked as an icon painter. After his participation in the Venice Bieannle, the Italian government acquired on of his works. In 1907, he painted out the George’s Church in Vienna. Konstantinos Parthenis died July 25, 1967.
Theme: The theme for the painting “Gazing at Peace” it's seems like exactly what it's called. The man is staring out with a pick axe on his shoulders and has one hand on his hip. The picture is in light colors so it must have a warm vibe. Also it seems very harmonious because it takes place during the day and it has birds and clouds in it.
