Very nice selection, although I'm less of a fan of this style of painting, which for some reason makes me feel nostalgic.
There's happy nostalgia and sad nostalgia. Here, it's sad nostalgia I'm feeling. But I can't say why.
In any case, in an exhibition, it's very beautiful to see and very interesting. But I wouldn't put these photos in my living room, unless I wanted to fall into a depression.
Mind you, nothing I say is intended to be unkind. I realize that as I write these lines. No, I think these paintings are really beautiful. It's just that they evoke a feeling I don't particularly like. I can't even tell exactly if it's "sad nostalgia". The more I look at them, the more I get the impression that it's loneliness, regret and a feeling of the end of life.
I'll tell you why. Most likely we see the passed time and think of those family members who maybe lived like this and are not with us anymore. I may be wrong, but I think this is on reason.
Exactly! Because this lifestyle is on its way of extinction. I understand what you mean and don't worry as we all have to choose what makes us feel happy and not sad. It's the same with music. If it makes you sad, it's not for you.
Yes, you're probably right, that's probably the cause. It's probably even deeper than that, but yes, absolutely.
Completely, but then I also like sad things sometimes. Mainly because I think it helps me to have a stronger bond with the artist.
You always have a stronger bond with others when you're sad.
