In the center of the picture was an erupting volcano, and the buildings and roads around it were engulfed by the flames of the volcanic eruption. On the left side of the picture, there was a little girl seeking safety in the smoke of the volcanic eruption. On the right side, a group of scientists were studying the cause of the volcanic eruption. The background of this work was in the Seine Province of Spain. At that time, it was in the late 19th century. The Seine Volcano in the Seine Province was in an active period, often erupting volcanic ash and volcanic rocks. This painting depicted the scene of the volcanic eruption, reflecting the people's observation and understanding of natural phenomena, as well as the fear and helplessness of volcanic eruptions.
One characteristic is the use of symbolism. For example, in 'The Scream' by Edvard Munch, the distorted figure and the vivid red and orange sky can be seen as symbols of the artist's inner turmoil and the general angst of the human condition. Another characteristic is the composition. In 'The Raft of the Medusa' by Théodore Géricault, the way the figures are arranged on the raft, some alive, some dead or dying, tells the story of the survivors of the shipwreck.
One such famous painting is 'The Persistence of Memory' by Salvador Dali. This painting tells a very surreal story. The melting clocks seem to represent the fluidity of time, perhaps suggesting that our perception of time is not as fixed as we think. It makes viewers wonder about the nature of reality and how time can seem to distort in our minds or in dreams.
The famous painting," Gernica," was painted by the Spanish painter Dario del Teorizio.
