Compare 2 drawing portraits that you have seen. Describe both in terms of subject(s), background and emotion(s)

Referring to art, especially portrait painting - One of the most difficult types of art is described by subjects, contexts and emotional depictions. Two portrait paintings that can be said to have left many impressions on me are the work "Thieu nu ben hoa hue" by artist To Ngoc Van and the work "Hoai Co Huong" by painter Le Pho. Both works depict a woman wearing "Ao dai" looking at flowers. Along with that, the emotional states and flexible gestures of Vietnamese women are clearly depicted. However, each painting, through the author's expression, brings different points in context, themes and emotions. First, the painting "Thieu nu ben hoa hue" depicts a young woman tilting her head towards a vase of white lilies. On the other hand, the painting "Hoai Co Huong" depicts a woman admiring white jasmine flowers. Second, "Thieu nu ben hoa hue" describes the background, discreet and elegant beauty of the Ha Thanh women in the pre-war period, while "Hoai co huong" describes the dreamy and noble Asian woman. Finally, shown in the painting "Thieu nu ben hoa hue" is the figure of a girl with the surrounding details and colors forming a simple cube, exuding a lingering, gentle sadness. Hoai Co Huong" is clearly shown about parting and praying for a woman's love. To me, each portrait depicts scenes, stories, and emotions that are very real. and should be more widely known both now and in the future.
