Reflection from Fieldwork: What did you notice? What did you learn?

I noticed that in one of the painting there was a kid that didn’t want to pose for it. He looked sad. You could tell he was a kid because he was blushing. When you become an adult, your blushing disappears. He was whining. - Jennifer

His hair was neat when he took the picture because his mom wanted him to be neat for the picture but I don’t think he was so excited about it. The picture wasn’t finished. - Sinqi

Queen Henrietta had curly hair. She must have been wealthy to be able to purchase a curling iron. - Jonah

Goya’s Duke Roca, he looked like George Washington and he was the director of Spain. - Tyler

I noticed in the Sculpture of the Blue Circle, it made me think of the sky and the ocean. When I looked at myself I was different shades of blue. - Isabel

To me, it felt like everything but it was so simple. It was nice and I liked the sculpture it was just a big circle but it was still really nice. - Cielo

Queen Henrietta was actually really small, but in the picture she looked tall. - Josh

She (Queen Henrietta) wanted to look powerful. - Aquetzalli

The Harvest Spirit was depicted as strong and adventures - Ian

The artist tried to trick you and think that she was poor because she didn’t have shoes on. Our docent said that laces back then were really expensive, but I saw laces on the back. She had sheep in the background, which made me think she was a shepherd. - Kira
