2. Composition
Composition is the arrangement of the elements within a painting. In sculpture it is the
relationship of the forms to each other and the surrounding space.
When you analyse composition you could consider:
1. The format
2. The arrangement of shapes
3. The positive and negative space
4. The arrangement of lines and shapes
5. Cropping
6. The Scale
For example you might say:
“The shapes appear to float in space.”
“The shapes are densely composed.”
“The composition of the shapes is well balanced.”
“The lines are composed in a diagonal configuration”
You might ask:
Which shapes dominate?
Where is the eye led?
Where are the major divisions?
Is the composition?
Dramatic, Planned, Informal, Complex, Symmetrical, Asymmetrical, Imbalanced,
Harmonious, Rhythmic, Random, Chaotic, Confused, Chance, Geometric, Regular,
Irregular, Systematic
Format
Landscape or Portrait?
Panoramic?(a wide view)
A tondo (round)
A minature
Is it part of a series of related
forms? Or a multi panelled
work?
Diptych: (two panels)
Triptych: (three panels)
Polyptych: (multiple panels)
Predella: (a long panel that
runs underneath the main
work)
3. Balance and imbalance can make a
composition dynamic, as in Beardsley’s
drawing. He makes careful use of positive and
negative space as well as the placing of shapes
in relation to the frame.
THE FRAME
The frame or edge of the image is
important.
How does the design of the composition
relate to the boundaries or border?
NEGATIVE SPACE AND POSITIVE SPACE
Negative space describes the area around
the objects and positive space describes the
area taken by the object. In a strong
composition there will be an interesting
balance between these areas, with the
negative space being just as visually
arresting as the positive, as in this example
by a student.
COMPOSITION
4. JEAN BAPTISTE SIMÉON CHARDIN
(1699-1779)
• He found beauty in the everyday domestic objects and
utensils that surrounded him.
• He often painted the same objects in different still life's.
• He chose the objects in his still life's for their
shapes, textures and colours, rather than for any symbolic
meaning they may have had.
• He carefully crafted an overall balance of
shape, texture, tone and colour throughout a still life.
• The abstract analysis of shape, colour, tone and texture and
the overall unity of composition that we find in Chardin's
work appealed greatly to modern artists in the 20th
century.
