How does Jan Davidsz de Heem's painting A Table of Desserts (1640) express the theme of vanitas?
O De Heem's sumptuous fruits and sweets ob silver platters and
velvet connote the ideas of exaggeration, artifice, and drama.
O The falling trays of food that is half-eaten and spoiled connotes
the idea that the material world is impermanent, only God is
eternal.
O It displays lavish wealth and abundance connoting the idea that
God rewards those who are worthy,

The falling trays of food that is half-eaten and spoiled connotes

the idea that the material world is impermanent, only God is

eternal.

Explanation:

The theme of vanitas refers to the Dutch 17th-century still-life paintings

that symbolize death and change as inevitable.

In this painting, there´s a depiction of the remains of a luxurious meal after a feast has come to an end.

The cherries considered a fruit of Paradise, the peaches and apples that represent the forbidden fruit, the grapes as a symbol of redemption, and the bread and wine as references to the Eucharist, show Christian connotations.

The half-eaten pie and the yellowed leaves of the plant are related to the inevitability of aging and death, while the lute and the recorder remind us of how ephemeral pleasure is, and the blue watch shows the passing of time as well as life.

sorry. my computer broke down and i had about 3 doctor's appointments. i'm just catching up now after reinstalling a router.

i think you best answer to this is d. some film directors were very picky about roles and lighting and and which side of the face the camera should catch. they were also picky about sound and background noise and chatter and music and all sorts of what we would consider trivial things. a stage director has to have all this ironed out before the curtain goes up. if he doesn't he better do it soon. if he doesn't notice, critics soon will, and they are not a very nice bunch.

e: both have the power to ask for rewrites. theater directors are always yammering about act 2.

c is true. both can ask for any number of things during rehearsals. the reason i wouldn't pick c is because a film director can make changes anytime during shooting, including when he thinks they ought to be done shooting.

b i didn't know what blocking was and i can't find a good description. if you have one and think b is true, go for it.

a a film director quite frequency chooses the leading lady or man. he may not have the final word, but he chooses. sometimes a theater director has no choice. a is generally not true.
