These two artistic representations of the skyline of Paris featuring the Eiffel Tower, although of the same subject matter, are very different. The top image is a painting, while the lower is a photograph. The painting features more colors, like the autumn trees and the almost golden brown siding of the building reflect warmer tones which are absent among the whites in he photograph. The clouds in the painting are also less realistic, adding an almost surreal quality to the image. So, the top image might appeal to the likes of a more idealist individual, while a realist like myself prefer the bottom image, and think it is much more appealing. In terms of a medium, the painting could be used to express more emotions as it is difficult to edit the aspects of a landscape (note that the photograph does not have any editing work done to it at all.)
