This is a Video Art project that I made for my AP Language Class. I do not own the song. The song is "When I look at You" by Emalkay. Please don't sue me.
"The Expansionist" is an Autobiographical Look into the life of Francis Millet
Description
Following extensive travel in Asia, Francis Millet painted this ambitious work. A couple in historical dress occupy a room filled with exotic souvenirs—Indonesian puppets, Javanese dolls, Japanese books, and other curiosities—that Millet based on his own collection. He also modeled the setting after the parlor of a sixteenth-century house where he had lived in England. Despite these autobiographical elements, the figures are dressed in eighteenth-century costume, and the mood of the work, with its soft natural light and exquisite still lifes, recalls seventeenth-century Dutch genre painting.
