    The first painting was The Beheading, by Caravaggio<\/strong>. Many participants took part and shared their views about the painting. Remarks were various, but also included the chiaroscuro technique and the emotions portrayed by the main characters. Some participants also remarked that apart from the old lady all the other characters seem to be witnessing an everyday situation and not a killing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


    The session than moved on to discuss the second slide: Las Meninas by Velasquez<\/strong>. Again, many were those that put their views forward. Even the younger students commented; especially about the clothes and the other children on the canvas. Other participants remarked about the dog being the faithful symbol linked to the intimacy of the painting.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n


    Ms Fernandez gave the concluding remarks, thanking all those who participated in this gathering. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
