Ethan Holaday Watson and the Shark John Singleton Copley 1778

Background Artist: John Singleton Copley Medium: Oil on Canvas Style: Neo-Classicism Contractor: Brook Watson Current Location: National Gallery of Art

What functions are performed by lines?

Outline Shape Implies Movement Create Focus Create Sense of Calm

How are shapes used?

Organic Shapes in the Foreground Imply chaos, lack of order, randomness Geometric Shapes in the Background Express control, peace, order

Where is there visual texture?

Smoothness of Watson’s skin Turbulence of waves Jagged teeth of shark Ruffles in Clothing Smoothness and sharpness of harpoon Gossamer lightness of sails

How is the illusion of space created?

Things in foreground (Watson, shark, and boat) larger Things in background (harbor, boats, battlements) smaller Vanishing point behind harpooner No definite horizon line Sense of urgency and epic nature

What symbolic purpose does value have?

Watson bright, glowing Freedom Purity Goodness Shark and Clouds above dark, murky Danger Chaos Clouds in the distance bright, glowing Hope

What unity and variety is present?

Unity Proximity of men in boat Togetherness, strength Repetition of ships on harbor Order, perfection, peace Variety Reactions of men Complexity of human emotion Watson’s Nudity Youth, innocence, vulnerability

How is ethos used?

Watson’s terror Varied emotions of men Rage of the harpooner Violent fury of the shark

What is the MESSAGE????

My opinion: Social Contract theory of John Locke Man is pure, innocent, and totally free in his natural state. However he is completely vulnerable and lacks any measure of security. Therefore man must become a part of society, giving up absolute freedom for the security and strength offered by it. When this is accepted, the man experiences a new birth of life and can have hope for his future.

What are the purposes?

To entertain the English people with an exciting scene in a faraway place and the past To convey the Social Contract Theory For Copley to earn respect in the artistic world To make people think twice before swimming alone in shark infested waters
