In today’s class we took a trip down to the Colby museum to view paintings in Landay’s gallery. All the paintings were from the Baroque period and we looked closely into each one to use for our take-home exam. The painting that stuck out to me was Jacques Courtois Bourguignon (1621–76). Battle Scene (with Castle in Background). I enjoyed the action and movement the painting had along with the bright blue school contrasting with the muted color tones of battle.
