How
old are the people in this picture?
There are both
young and old. Some are middle age (30s to 40s) as well as children (5-7
years old)
Late 20s or early
30s... a city (New York?)
How
might the people be feeling in this picture?
The lady looks
apprehensive, as if the gentleman with the hat is about to give her bad
news... the woman at the door is standing back, as she doesn't want to be
part of it (not intrude).. the children are looking up and watching what's
happening, as if trying to gauge the situation

What
in particular strikes you about this picture?
the way everyone is
observing what the man is about to do as well as how the woman is hunched
over (the one getting up from chair) as if in surprise
Note
something about yourself that might have led you to focus on these particular
aspects:
Perhaps that I have
received bad news unexpectedly before, and we have had similar
"unexpected visitors"

Our perceptions of tangible items and objects in the room were very similar as far as the people and their ages, time period, etc. However, my perception of the reason for the visit was that the gentleman was there to tutor or to help and not bring bad news necessarily. I have to assume that the object of the exercise is that we each can have different perceptions and that is usually based upon experiences that we have had in the past, such as your suggestion of having received bad news before. Great job.
ReplyDeleteWe had the ages of the people and the setting at about the period. We both said it was America! Were we differ was in the feelings between the man and woman. I thought she was happily stunned to see him as if he had just returned from a long journey. I saw this as a "surprise" reunion of sorts.
ReplyDeleteJared - This echoes the framing of different people's experiences! You apparently are a lot more optimistic than I am! lol
ReplyDeleteActually, this picture called to mind my maternal grandfather's passing in 1932; it reflects my grandmother's story of how she received the news that he'd had been involved in a traffic accident (she had 4 small children at the time).
