Looking Outside

 

Painting views seen through a doorway or window has been a popular subject for many artists since the Roman times.  For example, in ancient Pompeii, preserved by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, we can see frescoes painted within the homes, giving the illusion of looking outside.
In keeping with this tradition, seventh grade students painted their own view through a window.
