Question: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: Whose history paintings had primarily been of themes of classical mythology?  The painting shows the moment from Summer in which Musidora, having removed the last of her clothes, steps into "the lucid coolness of the flood" to "bathe her fervent limbs in the refreshing stream". Damon is not shown; instead, Etty illustrates the scene from Damon's viewpoint. By placing the audience in Damon's position, Etty aimed to induce the same reactions in the viewer as Damon's dilemma as described by Thomson; that of whether to enjoy the spectacle despite knowing it to be inappropriate, or to follow the accepted morality of the time and look away, in what art historian Sarah Burnage has described as "a titillating moral test for spectators to both enjoy and overcome".The pose of Musidora is based on that of the Aphrodite of Cnidus and the Venus de' Medici. It is possible that Etty was also familiar with Thomas Gainsborough's Musidora, which shares similar elements. Gainsborough's Musidora, his only large nude, was never exhibited in his lifetime and remained in private hands until 1847, but Etty was familiar with its then-owner Robert Vernon and may have seen it in his collection. The setting for the painting is a pool in the grounds of The Plantation, a house in the village of Acomb, near York. The Plantation was the home of his close friend and patron the Reverend Isaac Spencer, vicar of Acomb, and its grounds were a scene Etty had previously painted. In 1846 Etty bought a house in York for his retirement; Burnage speculates that Etty chose Acomb on the grounds that a view of York was quintessentially English.Although Etty had traditionally worked in the Venetian style of painting, with rich colours and detail, for Musidora he adopted a much softer and earthier palette, although his use of reflected light on flesh is derived from Venetian styles. He moved away from Rubens, who up to this time had been his greatest influence, and closer to the style of Titian. This is likely owing to the nature of the subject matter. Until then his history paintings had primarily been of themes of classical...
Answer: Etty

Question: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What was the last name of the person who showed his ambitious history painting at the 1834 Salon?  Given the standings of the two men, the painting was received in both social and political terms. A number of writers mentioned Bertin's eventful career, in tones that were, according to art historian Andrew Carrington Shelton, either "bitingly sarcastic [or] fawningly reverential". There were many satirical reproductions and pointed editorials in the following years. Aware of Bertin's support of the July Monarchy, writers at the La Gazette de France viewed the portrait as the epitome of the "opportunism and cynicism" of the new regime. Their anonymous critic excitedly wondered "what bitter irony it expresses, what hardened skepticism, sarcasm and ... pronounced cynicism".Several critics mentioned Bertin's hands. Twentieth-century art historian Albert Boime described them as "powerful, vulturine ... grasping his thighs in a gesture ... projecting ... enormous strength controlled". Some contemporary critics were not so kind. The photographer and critic Félix Tournachon was harshly critical, and disparaged what he saw as a "fantastical bundle of flesh ... under which, instead of bones and muscles, there can only be intestines – this flatulent hand, the rumbling of which I can hear!" Bertin's hands made a different impression on the critic F. de Lagenevais, who remarked: "A mediocre artist would have modified them, he would have replaced those swollen joints with the cylindrical fingers of the first handy model; but by this single alteration he would have changed the expression of the whole personality ... the energetic and mighty nature".The work's realism attracted a large amount of commentary when it was first exhibited. Some saw it as an affront to Romanticism, others said that its small details not only showed an acute likeness, but built a psychological profile of the sitter. Art historian Geraldine Pelles sees Bertin as "at once intense, suspicious, and aggressive". She notes that there is a certain amount of projection of the artist's personality and recalls Théophile Silvestre's description of Ingres;...
Answer: Ingres

Question: Read the following paragraph and extract the answer for the question: What are the names of the people who had a relationship?  Mammy Two Shoes is preparing a fancy dinner, with both Tom and Jerry observing. Jerry starts eating the cracker spread, but Tom knocks Jerry out by whacking him with a spoon and calls Toots, his love interest, to invite her to dinner. Jerry is forced to perform menial duties for the cats, such as carrying food and blowing on Tom's soup. Annoyed, Jerry drinks the soup and spits it into Tom's face, causing Tom to put the spoon Jerry is standing on over a burning candle to make him hop on both feet and yelp in pain. As Toots offers Tom bread, Jerry sandwiches Tom's tail between it. Unaware, Tom pours ketchup onto it and bites it, causing him to leap up in pain. Tom is then unaware again, trying to stay cool for his date, as Jerry puts a pineapple slice, cream and cherry onto it, and Tom leaps up after biting it again. Tom grabs Jerry and twists his tail into a champagne-cork opener to make two drinks, launching Jerry into a glass of water. Tom then tries to hug and kiss his girlfriend, but Toots impressively dodges each attempt. When Tom finally hugs Toots, she takes out a "wolf pacifier" (a mallet) and wallops him with it. As Jerry mocks Tom, Tom puts a cigar into Jerry's mouth, whacks him and lights a cigar onto him, causing Jerry to launch a pie into Tom's face. Tom throws a pie in return, but Jerry ducks and the pie hits Toots, effectively ending the relationship between the two cats.
Answer:
Jerry
