Art of the day: Paul Cezanne’s “The Basket of Apples”

For the basket of deplorable’s, the art of the day is Paul Cezanne’s “Basket of Apples”. It’s just weird how this work of art is as famous as it is. But there has to be a reason. The cream rises to the top. And true art stands the test of time.

The Basket of Apples due to its unbalanced parts was regarded as a balanced composition. Many unbalanced parts include the titled bottle, cookies shortened lines, inclined basket and the right side of the painting containing the table cloth does not matches with the same plane as the left side giving a view that there are two different viewpoints. This type of painting helped to form a bridge from Cubism to impressionism. The canvas at the top shows a wine bottle, table cloth, a plate containing some cookies or rolls and a tipped up basket exposing fruits inside. Everything seems satisfactory unless someone notices the error in the drawing as showing from the lines of the table that represents close and far edges.

Drone show

The drone show was pretty cool. I think they missed out on some performance elements. Music so we didn't hear the humming, and a grand finale, but it was pretty cool.

A. Art of the Day

B. Wisdom of the Day
