Photograpy by Others

 Footpath through Dodd Wood, Bassenthwaite

The picture was taken during the season of autumn, in a park of Dodd Wood by Martin Lawrence. Lawrence has tried to capture the photography of nature, which is the favorite of mine. The details of the picture is phenomenal, have the detail fall leaves contrasting with the road and green plants with the dull back ground of the trees and the natural sun light running through the trees make it a prefect autumn day.

Francis Bacon (1909-1992) was an Irish figurative painter, influenced in his earlier years by Picasso and surrealism, whose unique expressionist style of painting, which emerged during the 1950s, featured pictures of people screaming or in pain, often portrayed inside bathrooms or cages. His tortured, nightmarish imagery projected a world of violent and shocking humanity. His talent as a modern expressionist artist blossomed alongside a shambolic personal life, marked by extreme homosexuality, gambling and alcoholism. Even so, he was one of the most famous figures in Irish painting and a unique figure in the history of Irish art.
