Friedrich Schinkel_Zauberflöte


Original Painting: About to enter a peculiar yet peaceful hidden portico that projects power but does not welcome or wants to be found.

Experiment 1: "Sky removal" making the painting more believable and realistic because by doing so, there is no more contradiction between day and night time.

Experiment 2: "Portico Removal" letting us focus only on the surroundings to see how enclosed and hidden the surrounding is.

Experiment 3: "Adding Life" adding a tourist with camera in the foreground to let go of the atmosphere of  unknown and unfound.

Eperiment 4: "Opening the path" removal of all foreground rocks to give the new feeling of welcoming while reduce the feeling of being hidden.

Experiment 5: "Humans" adding many back-turned humans doing everyday stuff on the staircase to give the feeling of being a common  place with noting strange.
Experiment 6: "Dare Enter?" removing the arch cave and sky and replace it with red sky to give the atmosphere of tress passing a space while also projects even more power than the original photo.

  1. All successful experiments!
    Although, with all these changes, you still do not manage to change the "powerful" quality it still feels very much like a temple of sorts. And whay don't you try to zoom in and create a new space in the temple.
