My favorite painting is “homecoming” by Hanz Buehler. This painting tells a story of german soldier returned back from war and put his head on his fiance’s lap. The painting gives us the feeling that this soldier is really exhausted from war scenes and wants a peaceful moment at home.
The colors are strongly meaningful, it contains black represented in the soldier army clothes which reflects how much he is in pain ,and white represented in the woman’s dress which reflects how pure she is. The painting is like a real life scene, the women was leaned to her man shows love and care for him by touching his head with her hand.
I knew about this painting from an Egyptain series named “sunset osis” which simulated this painting in one of its scenes.
