The double self-portrait of the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo is one of her most notable paintings and her first large-scale work. The Two Fridas depicts two different versions of Frida sitting side-by-side. Frida claimed the theme of the painting to be more politically engaged as she used her image as a metaphor to explore the varying lines of emotions.

From Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel ceiling to Van Gogh’s Starry Night, these works of art have come to symbolise beauty and creativity for generations. These masterpieces also represent the responses and interpretations of individuals to political, religious and social events and stories throughout history, giving us an insight into the human experience.

This tempera panel masterpiece fuses Sandro Botticelli’s linear grace with Renaissance humanism and Neoplatonism. Venus stands center while Zephyr chases Flora, the goddess of spring. Scholars interpret the mythological characters and interactions as an allegory for spiritual coming into being, with Venus’s raised hand suggesting the triumph of higher love. Completed for the Medici family, who sponsored Florentine artists, it reflects the cultural vibrancy of Lorenzo de’ Medici’s court circa the late 15th century.

The Avenue In The Rain is a highly popular painting in the world and came into being at the height of Hassam’s popularity. Childe Hassam enjoyed constant prominence as one of the top ten American painters who were influenced by French art.

Cinematic framing allows painters to craft compositions that draw the viewer into the scene, creating a sense of movement and anticipation. Techniques borrowed from film, such as dramatic lighting and color palettes, help to set the mood and tone, enhancing the emotional impact of the artwork. Narrative storytelling, through the use of sequential art and symbolism, provides a depth of meaning that encourages viewers to delve beyond the surface and engage with the artwork on a deeper level.

The Pre-Raphaelite painter John Everett Millais had already depicted a similar scene in his work “Ophelia” (1851-1852). Ophelia, an iconic character from Shakespeare’s tragedy “Hamlet,” peacefully floats on the water, giving rise to a moment that is both gentle and mortuary. Surrounded by lilies, Justine (like Ophelia) already appears distant—has she already departed this world?

Additionally, we will examine notable artists who have successfully integrated cinematic elements into their paintings, including Edward Hopper and David Hockney, as well as contemporary artists who continue this tradition. By analyzing their works, we can see firsthand how film has shaped their artistic approach and enriched their visual storytelling.

Vugar Efendi’s supercut published in three parts, titled “Film Meets Art,” lists almost fifty instances of paintings reflected in filmography. Efendi’s archive hosts some well-known examples, such as Akira Kurosawa’s 1990 Dreams which reflected the pathos of Vincent van Gogh’s 1890 Wheatfield With Crows not just through cinematic solstice but also through metaphor. An unrecognizable Scorsese plays Van Gogh in Dreams, who, interspersed in a cinematic environment aided by Chopin, represents the pathos of the human condition, with Wheatfield With Crows posing as the setting as well as the story.
