On Tuesday 20th 2018 November Year 6 went to the national gallery in London and looked at some of the paintings there.The picture is ‘Men of the docks’,which was very intresting.The painting “Men of the docks” It was made by an artist called George Bellows,he has made other paintings which are also very realistic and looked like it took a lot of years to make.
The most interesting picture we looked was the mansion picture,It had a dog and a man hunting,a lot of trees,a big mansion with the owners in a cart with his wife and baby.
The ‘Men of the docks’ painting looked much different in real life than on a computer because we got a little touch of a little picture and that is how it felt,it was made from oil paint.
My favourite part of the trip was the hole experience of looking at the paintings because it was very good art and it looked like it took lots of years to paint also the paintings looked very realistic when they were made from oil paint.
