The Sleeping Gypsy By: Henri Rousseau Oils on Canvas

 It has something to do with an Egyptian person. I can see a lion and a dark skinned person with his stuff next to him. He is sleeping. There are mostly dark colors with the exception of the sand the guys clothes. The media is oils on canvas.

 This painting has two focal points. They are the gypsy’s face and the lion’s face. I really think that the dark colors and the warm colors are balanced. They make a sort of sad and dark mood. The proportions of the colors are normal and make sense. The painting looks life like. On the gypsy’s clothes there are stripes that are repeating, but they are different colors. The artist uses them to create a happy mood in a place that is very dark.

 I think that the gypsy sleeping in the desert symbolizes that there are some people that are poor and have no where to live. The lion is all the dangers that homeless people face. The artist wanted the viewer to feel a very serious mood when looking at the painting. I have seen lots of people living under bridges so I can look at the picture and remember all those occasions. Poverty is a subject we touch in social studies. It is a big problem world wide

 I think that if Henri Rousseau was trying to get people to think about poverty, he accomplished it. I can say that this work had a very good and easy to interpret style. I think it is unique because you don’t see many artists painting these types of paintings. To improve the painting, the artist could have added more details and more symbols to better help a viewer understand the painting.
