boy: what do you make of this painting? it’s very strange.
girl: it’s called woman at a window. it’s not my favourite. it doesn’t even look like a woman. i prefer more realistic portraits. one of my favourite paintings is the portrait called the mona lisa by leonardo da vinci. picasso’s portrait isn’t half as good as the mona lisa. he can’t draw.
boy: that’s not true. it’s not the same style. picasso created the cubist art movement while da vinci was a more traditional painter. in fact, picasso was very good at drawing. in his early years, he did hundreds of drawings and paintings in a traditional realistic style. later his work changed and it became more abstract.
girl: how about this one? it’s an extraordinary painting. what is it?
boy: it’s called le sommeil. it was painted by salvator dali. he was a famous spanish surrealist painter who lived in the 20th century, at about the same time as picasso. he was completely mad. all his paintings are very strange but i quite like them.
girl: well, i don’t understand this one at all. and i can’t stand paintings i don’t understand.
boy: look. i love this painting. it’s so colourful.
girl: yes, it’s delightful. it’s a landscape oil painting by vincent van gogh. it’s called landscape with trees and figures. he’s a very well-known european painter. he was dutch but he lived and worked in france in the 19th century. i’m very fond of his work, especially his landscape paintings. they are so colourful and alive. this is the one i like best. i’d choose it to put on the bedroom wall.
boy: i agree. i like this one too. but i don’t think van gogh is half as good as picasso. i’d choose picasso to put on my wall. he’s my favourite painter.
girl: i’m sure all of these paintings look much better in reality than in an art book. i’d love to see them.
boy: the problem is, they’re in different museums around the world.
girl: well, there’s an exhibition on in the school hall of students’ paintings next week. we could go to that!
