A Pic-Nic Party by Thomas Cole

by: Maria Zakharycheva, Noor Sheikh


We mostly analyzed the message of the painting. Our group focused on the people portrayed in the painting and their gathering. We also focused on the portrayal of nature and the immense size of nature. We did not talk about the historical context of the painting. If we had more time we could have researched Thomas Cole and the time period in which he made this painting. We briefly discussed the formal and technical aspects of the painting, but we could have discussed that further.
