I hate how the concept is really good but it's ruined with the anime. I'm saying that as a person that likes anime too to be honest family.

How is this sad? Do you just love this painting and post it in any thread? I swear I've seen it a half dozen times posted here over the course of the year, and it's a rather obscure painting to post so I know it's just you.

Can't tell if bait or autistic.

What am I saying, chances are it's both.

The artist's level of skill is pretty sad tbqh

>>2312738
I've posted it here maybe 3 times. That poster is not me. More than one person can like a single painting.

As for how is it sad, are you serious? it's a painting of a bunch of sullen girls beside starving dogs and the rubble of their village.

lol. ok kid.

>it's a painting of a bunch of sullen girls beside starving dogs and the rubble of their village.
Just because they are poor doesn't mean they are sad. They look like they are just sitting and posing for an artist. They're not gonna smile forever for the artist to paint it, and it doesn't look like it's done from a photo at any point.

Also at first I thought the buildings were skewed as an artistic choice, not because they were rubble. It's more clear in the photo (which also shows the scale of the painting, wow!):

It isn't, Liu Xiodong only works directly from life.

>Just because they are poor doesn't mean they are sad.
if they aren't sad (and I believe they probably are), then the scene itself should inspire sadness in the viewer. "Out of Beichuan" depicts the aftermath of an earthquake that killed tens of thousands of people in 2008.

Well the context changes the painting I suppose and I would agree the intention then does likely have sadness as one of the emotions or goals. Without context though I didn't find it to be sad at all really.

literally nothing wrong with that face. just because you don't like the expressionist mode of painting doesn't mean its bad.

post more dead Christs and sad Marys. Feel like this is where every artist eventually goes to try his hand at epitomizing human sadness. Can anyone think of another iconic image that symbolizes sad better?

It's the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. The yellow (gold) circle is a halo or nimbus.

Are you from an area where Christianity is practiced?

>epitome of humility

Not a bit. The New Testament is just Jesus going around telling people what to do, acting like a know it all, showing off his powers, etc. If he appeared as a character in modern literature or film, he'd be completely hateable.
>>
>>2315077
The entire idea of almighty God taking the form of a dirty ape to die for humanity is the epitome of humility. Satan offers him the world on a platter when he's fasting in the desert, but he turns it down so he can be nailed to a tree by ungrateful centurions.

The "showing off of powers" are tales his followers made up to illustrate his mercy and divinity.

His ministry was all about humility though. He instructs his followers not to make a scene of their fasting, or to pray loudly in public. At the last supper, he dresses down and washes his disciples' feet like a servant, and the bible says that he came "not to be served, but to serve." He instructs his followers to adopt this same humble attitude.

The only time he's really condemning anyone is when he preaches against the Sadducees or Pharisees, exactly because they went around acting like know it alls and drawing attention to their piety.
