Objective Description
In the picture "The Dream" the you see a woman laying on a bed made of wood. Her head is on a white pillow and is covered with a yellow blanket. On top of the bed frame there is a skeleton with its head on two white pillows with flowers in its hands. There are cylinders that are strung together with wire covering its legs. There are green leaves growing up the blanket toward the head of the woman and is starting to surround her. The bed is floating in the sky with clouds behind it.
Impressionistic Description
When I look at the picture the first part that catches my eye is the plant moving up the bed. It makes me thing of the dream creeping up into her mind and surrounding her body. It seems to be like while the the dream, "the plant" is covering her everything that surrounds her is part of the dream. Like while everything is there the dream is still protecting her. The next part that I notice is the skeleton over her, which I took as death is near and over her.
