Our ELL class went to visit museum of art couple of days ago. There I saw a many different kinds of arts done the famous artists of 18th century. I saw a many different kinds of arts but A sunday on la grande jatte is only the one that i am attracted too. I would like to describe in detail about the art that I liked.
The art named A sunday on la grande jatte was done by the one of the famous artist of 18th century named Georges-Pierre Seurat. " Georges-Pierre Seurat was born in 2 December 1859 – 29 March 1891 was a French painter and draftsman.Seurat was born into a wealthy family in Paris. His father, Antoine Chrysostom Seurat, was a legal official and a native of Champagne; his mother, Ernestine Faivre, was Parisian. Georges Seurat first studied art with Justin Lequiene, a sculptor. Seurat attended the École des Beaux-Arts in 1878 and 1879. After a year of service at Brest Military Academy, he returned to Paris in 1880. He shared a small studio on the Left Bank with two student friends before moving to a studio of his own. For the next two years he devoted himself to mastering the art of black and white drawing. He spent 1883 on his first major painting — a huge canvas titled Bathers at Asnières".

When I saw this art. It immediately made me remember when I was back in Nepal. We went to have a picnics on the park. On that days the temperature was pretty hot around 100 degree. We all were sweating on that days. All of our body were full of sweat.The park that we went is near the embankment of river. It made me remember during the summer in Nepal. Temperature is really hot. Sometimes temperature goes up to 120 degree. And at those time I use to go to the park and sleep in the green grass.
The flames of fire on the art make me remember, when we were cooking food. We were cooking food in the firewood on that day. And the extreme flame of fire had surrounded all the parks. I often go to visit the park in the United States also because we can see lots of people from different country. I always entertained with the variety of different things when I go to the park. I enjoy learning different culture,custom, tradition, and background of different people in the parks.
Over all the painting I choose this painting as my favorite because It all about the doing fun in the parks. It make me remember of those day when we went to picnic on the park near by embankment. I mostly like this arts because it is exactly to those place that I went use to
go entertain during the summer when I was back in Nepal.
