Surrealist Subversion - AS 90913 v4 internal assessment 4 credits - Literacy (Post 4)

Surrealist Subversion                                             

Original: Giorgio de Chirico, The Mystery and Melancholy of a Street, 1914, oil on canvas (Private Collection)




 Describe the artwork:

Gives the feeling of lost empty, deserted, it gives a feeling of confusion dullness loneliness, as the girl is heading towards the unknown light off into the distance. This piece can also give an eerie feel as the girl is shown to be alone.  As the unknown figure can be seen in a shadow in the distance hidden behind the building it really gives you to feel to find out who the exact figure. As it's described in the name a 'mystery'. It is a real mystery to find out how it's really meant to be interpreted as personally.
