Analyzing "Van Gogh Boots"


Now, I am going to analyze the picture of Vincent Van Gogh with Ingardens Theory, which is about the self feelings and the visible and invisible objects on the painting.


Concretation:
In the image, if i fill in the blanks I can see a pair of alone boots, that are sad because their owner isnt there, then I can see a piece of floor of the room of Vincent. I think that the paintings are only about the boots, because they really were one of the most valious things that owned to Van Gogh. But if I continue filling in the blanks I wont be able to describe perfectly what is in my mind, because I begin to think over and I thought that sometimes we are such alone like te painting of the boots, that no one else is awaiting for us, so we are suffering, and without suffer we can´t think about our lives and how we are doing in here. Especially in my opinion i think that people dont like to suffer, but we need to have this pain, because this time of pain is the time when we can be in the deepest part of our soul and our hearts.


Physical Object:
This painting was made in 1888 by the famous paintor Vincent Van Gogh, this paintings is made on a surface of white canvas, the painting was painted with oil and a differente brushes. Anyway we can include the wooden desk and the boots as physical objects.


Aesthetic Object:
The aesthetic object of this painting for me, is that with the boots Van Gogh wants to represent us the hard work that we need to pay for an instance in our life. I think that Vincent wanted to transmit to us the value of the slaughter, because if we watch the boots, we can see an old boots, smelly boots, hardwork boots, but if we se through them we can see the most important things wich is they are still boots and they still work, so it doesnt matter if they are a bunch of rag, they work and that is the best.


Aesthetic Values:
The aesthetic values following Ingardens Theory, are the ones that you feel in an artistic work as beauty, impact, amazment, etc.
With this picture I felt some aesthetic values like, profundity; the boots are in the center and they introduced myself inside of the picture, deepnes; the picture is deep and all the complement colors make the boots a beautiful contrast which made me feel exactly what Vincent felt when he paint the boots. And finally i felt like a strange serenity because when you see it you are like if you were breathing lots of peace, but then you say what? the boots are a little rude.



Artistic Values:
The artistic values are the ones that make the art work, be really an artistic feel.
The painting hasn´t a frame, it is signed by the author, the light is coming from the top right corner, it has cold and hot colors. (black and yellow/ mostly).
