I went to the Metropolitan Museum and saw this painting. This painting was very interesting because this painting was made for a friend and corresponded with a poem the friend made. I thought that it was really well made from his use of gradation around the edges. It made the five and the fives in the center the focal point. The reason why I chose this painting to write about was because it was weird. In a gallery full of paintings of buildings and landscapes was the number 5. I liked his use of gold and orange. It looked modern and something that I would hang on my wall.
