"Ancient of Days"



So I've been in Art History for a year now and I enjoyed studying Egyptian art and Italian Art... of any era...but other then that most everything blends in to me. I can appreciate the talent but it doesn't interest me. Well one day a couple weeks ago we began studying Romanticism... and I fell in love with the emotions and power. While reading through the chapter I found a painting that was graphically interesting to me. I was reading my book outside in the warmth of the beginning of spring. After staring at the painting titled "Ancient of Days" by William Blake, I became obsessed. I've found paintings that I "like" but now I truly have my favorite piece.
