Many times the modernist writings are compared to the paintings of many of the artists that emerged during that period of time. I decided to use this painting since writer Gertrude Stein's abstract writing are often compared to multi-perspectival cubism of Pablo Picasso. This multi-perspectival view of the painting was the same thing that the writers were experiencing, since they were breaking away from traditional views and beginning to look at the world in a different way.

Courbet was sent to jail multiple times for the intensity and truth in his art. This piece was drawn in Versailles of some of his cell mates. I think he clearly wanted to state the corruption of the government due to the appearance of a child in the cell, hopelessly reaching towards the barred window.
