1.Describe the portrait of the fur merchant. Why is he “the business man’s hero”?
The video describe the man in the panting as a hero. The reason for him being a hero is because he devoted his life into the business. The painting shows a man who is very tired, yet with a very sharp look in his eyes. That of a wise and experience man.
# 2. What is the mood of the portrait of the 83 yr old woman?
He knew what his customers wanted. So when looking at the 83 yr old woman, she looks to be depress. Why? The reason being, she looks like she knows it's almost time to leave the earth.
3. What is Rembrandt communicating in his painting of Sampson & Delilah?
What he likes to do is go past the mask that people wear. Making us want to feel sympathetic for them. And that kind of what he does here. Story of love and betraying. For starters Sampson was naked in this painting instead he was dress and the knot showed how he was tied to his love. While Delilah was comforting him.
