The Lovers by Rene Magritte is painted by oil in 1928. Rene Magritte was one of the major figures of Surrealism and perhaps the greatest Belgian artist of the 20th century. In this painting, we can defined it is a Surrealism painting by the humorous effect and the special performance technique. When you look at this painting, you will ask yourself what this painting means, why do the lovers covered their face and kiss? As you see, there’re two figures in the middle of the room, the background is kind of dark. You can feel something from it.
I choose this painting because when I first look at it. The two figures come though my eyes and I can’t stop thinking of what it means. I want to find the meaning of this painting. When Magritte was fourteen, his mother died by drowning herself in the river. When his mother was found, her dress was covering her face. People said this event affect Magritte’s artwork. However, Magritte said “My painting is visible images which conceal nothing… they evoke mystery and indeed when one sees one of my picture, one ask oneself this simple question ‘What does that mean?’ It does not mean anything, because mystery means nothing either, it is unknowable.”
Are we really thinking too much? How do you think about it? Do you think it just made for art, or does it have a meaning behind it?
