Identify and analyze at least 2 elements and 2 principles Thomas Eakins used in his The Biglin Brothers Turning the Stake painting. Then explain how he utilized these and others to define and support the story and subject as well as the historical relevance of the painting. The idea of the Little Brothers is to begin to make sense of the historical and the cultural references of a piece of art. In this case, however, Eakins has chosen to characterize the central figure of Little Man in a rowboat, which is to say, the Little Man of the Renaissance. It is the Little Man who stands at the edge of a hole. He is standing on a narrow strip of land between two small islands. One of them is where the Little Man is leaning, and the other is the island that the Little Man is standing on. This is the island of Endeavor, or perhaps Endeavor, for in his last picture, the Little Man is standing on his boat, a tiny model. The sea is just visible beyond the horizon. There is nothing but the horizon line in the distance, and a few small boats are in the horizon. The Little Man is standing on Endeavor, where he could be standing. The canvas has a small rim, and it is painted red. The island of Endeavor is red. The painting is almost the same as the last one, with some minor changes: the Little Man is no longer in the center of the picture, and the island is no longer a long strip of land; the island is now a small boat, the one that the Little Man is standing on. The island is no longer the island. The Little Man has become the main character.In this picture, the painting is about the narrative of a tale, but one that is not told. Eakins seems to feel that the images are the product of an imagination, which is being used to construct a narrative. In this sense, he is in step with most contemporary American artists, who use the image of the story as a means of constructing a narrative. The Little Man, by contrast, is about a fragment of an earlier narrative, but one that is not present.

It is in these works, and in a whole body of work, that Eakins is best known.

(Eakins has always emphasized that the big-picture-and-all-over-and-over-over-again approach was the only way to deal with his large works and that he saw the printmaking as a metaphor for the infinite, as he put it, and in this respect he was an extreme close-up artist.) This makes the critique of the Bible in American art all the more pertinent because it shows that we are the slave class, and the Bible as a whole is the figure of the master class.What, then, is the role of the blind testifier? The testifier is the artist, who selects the works of art as works of art, as Eakins said. He makes them questions, not a test. He is the artist, who sits by the artist and writes the works, as Eakins did. He is the artist who sets up the works, who selects and uses them, who lays them out, who makes them part of the history of art. He is the artist who gives voice to the artist, who establishes the position of the artist. He is the artist who constructs a picture in the way he sees it. He is the one who creates a picture, who constructs a picture, who decides what is an artist. He is the one who chooses the works, who establishes the artist as an artist. He is the one who explains the terms of the picture. He is the one who asks who is an artist, who makes a picture, who constructs a picture. He is the one who identifies with the artist. He is the one who is able to make art; he is the one who can paint. He is the one who is the artist in the sense of being able to do the painting.

In the 1950s and 60s he depicted his father (who was a schoolteacher) as a typecast caricature of himself, creating images that were provocative in their appeal. One was free to take such images as a slapstick example of the slapstick, and a comic as a metaphor for the kind of writer who can't be taken seriously. The Biglin Brothers, a New York artist, was also a member of the Stated Artists Association, the only gallery to have explicitly included a man who was both a man and a painter. He was equally interested in the real and the ideal, as well as in the expression and the craft. His methods included both painting and sculpture. His early works, while often often colorful, were always limited by the white walls and the formal limitations of the medium. When he started to paint, the white walls were followed, but by the same means as the painting, in which the power of the medium was expressed in a fairly direct manner. Thus, in a 1967 painting titled Call to Calvins, he used the white walls as a kind of mask, which merged the figure of Call to Calvins with the white walls of the image, which featured Call as a mangled figure, his head broken and twisted, his body broken and twisted, its limbs and feet missing. His body was distorted and in a precarious position, which may have been an act of violence. The mangled figure and the white walls of the image echoed the ideal of the body as a blank canvas, as well as the ideal of the artist as a blank canvas.The two body parts in Call to Calvins are the mangled and the mangled body, both of which are broken.
