Notions Of originality

This is as majority of people know the Famous Hollywood Glamour woman Marilyn Monroe. Above there is a famous painting of her which is done by famous American painter Andy Warhol who was best known in the visual art movement known as Pop Art. Man with many talents, a few of the facts that need to be known. But what made him paint Marilyn Monroe I mean there has to be a reason. Its a very Commercial painting,why is it, because of his outstanding thoughts and ideas to put in to other words the originality. That something that makes it what it is today very popular that other people are inspired and using the old picture (original) into there own which is similar to the new picture. Just like the picture above on the right. “Is there such thing as originality” well I believe if a individual has or comes up with an idea, which is come is come from another idea maybe more. This is from our minds, we think it, which does make it 'original.' People use original ideas to strengthen there interpretations of there last idea and its like a repeated routine or step which someone in the future maybe think of adding it into there conceptions.

Unknown artist - Gabrielle d'EstrĂ©es c.1594.This painting is reflected to an older audience well even younger to be honest because it tells a story to the audience even though some people would find something hilarious about it or even sexual. On the other hand I think its seen as more romantic if you really read into it, the summary of it is her husband Henry gave her a ring as a token of his love for her shortly before she died. People can somehow relate to this the picture makes you want to think and grabs your attention. Where as the people that have copied this and made it into the own to me it doesn't seem as (using this word again) 'original' the pictures don't look believable. Like this one Melanie Manchot – The Fontainebleau Series – 2001.
