Christina Rossetti's poem, “In An Artist’s Studio”, explores how men foster a need for control by creating unrealistic expectations for women through their fantasies. Through the use of repetition, contrast of imagery, and symbolism, Rossetti guides us through the gallery inside of an artist’s mind, portraying the fantasies that give him a sense of control over the women he creates.

borrowing from other artists is an age-old practice. For instance, painters have regularly repainted the paintings of other artists with an aim of exploring the application of their artistic style in a familiar art.

include service to the church, which led to the beginning of a new Victorian feminism (Abrahms, 2001). As changes in perception regarding women’s roles emerged, women’s rights in regard to education, employment, and marriage began to be debated. This new way of thinking is evident throughout Rossetti’s poems, which often embrace a feminist ideology. Although Rossetti most likely would not have considered herself a feminist at the time, her bold and thoughtful expressions unknowingly coincided with these
and in this context veneer refers to the face, or fake persona, the artist’s partner put on for him. When this veneer crumbles, and the artist realizes that things were not as they seemed, it hurts him just as much as a physical blow that would draw blood. The sink containing blood and crushed
a canvas on someone's wall or in a gallery?

publishers are responsible for many financial aspects of an artist’s career, such as registration of rights, copyrights, licensing, and the collection of royalties in benefit of the artist. They are regarded as the artist’s “advocate” (Frost Online). Arguably, the most important financial device to an artist’s economic revenue is derived from royalties and licensing.

albums and songs. Even this method of accessing music has begun to fade away with the replacement of streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music, or Soundcloud. Artists’ music has also been used in advertisements. This can negatively affect the artist’s career. Music artists shouldn’t have their songs in advertising. For a start, sponsorships can be risky. For example, overexposure can take a negative effect on the artist and his or her song. Many people are tired of hearing the same song on
Not only does bronze naturally lend itself to the texturing that is so vital to the piece, but its hard, cold, metallic qualities also add to the hard, unhappy expression on the face. The bronze medium also catches the light in a way that brings a life-like naturalism to the face. It is possible that the artist had chosen to work in bronze knowing that this figure would be situated outdoors with more access to natural light. This piece has been carved, a method that adds a necessary

stones with a hammer and a young boy lifting a basket filled with stones. Standing at 5ft.3 in. x 8 ft. 6in., it portrayed ordinary people on a monumental scale, which at the time seemed crude to critics. Courbet did not mean it to be heroic in any way, yet meant it to be an accurate account of the abuse and deprivation that was common feature of mid-cenury French rural life (Gersh-Nesic).
