Art Creation & Reflection
Inspirational Piece
The inspirational piece is titled: Petit Trianon, and was captured by renowned French artist, Eugène Atget. The image was taken from a distance and leverages the effects of surrounding objects to create an intense feeling for the observer (”Chapter 11”, n.d). The exact year the artwork was processed is not known, although researchers estimate it was probably within 1923 to 1925.
