When you gaze upon it the aesthetic of the piece has a simplistic almost minimalistic feel to it. But on second glance, you realize the work of art is a masterpiece. It has tons of details with eye catching colors. The lines flow so fluidity. Some may say the work could have come from the pre-Raphaelite era while others argue it could be comparable to postmodernism. However when the piece is placed juxtaposed with a similar piece it is easy to see the differences. It doesn't end there with the visual appeal but it arouses the other senses invoking emotional reactions to it. For me i felt the warmth and comfort which followed but the tingling of my taste and nerves. Yes i am talking about Saigon's pho. It is a masterpiece, a work of art.
