1. The subject of the painting is a road going into the unknown of the tunnel.
2. There is nothing that shows the time period it shows a fictional picture.
3. The setting of the painting is abstract. There are simple shapes and colors. The artist uses one main color and shades it in different ways with one spot that stands out that uses a different color.
4. The setting of the painting is the subject of the painting. Everything is pointing toward the tunnels that are in the distance. All the people make lines into the tunnel. The lines of the road point into the tunnel. The artist used almost circular rings around the tunnel that really makes your eyes linger in the tunnel as you wonder what is inside or on the other side.
5. The colors of the painting give me a sense of fear and loneliness. The shape of the people makes them feel distant with no emotion, as if they are not even human anymore or ever was. The shapes are simple and all the line of the people and the road and even the circles of the brick around the tunnel point to the tunnel. The tunnel gives me a chill as the distant dark people walk towards the tunnel; it makes me feel as if the tunnel is evil itself as it attracts the people of imhuman like features.
