José Guadalupe Posada - Calavera Revolucionaria
What I like about this image is the technique used to make it, the artist was a mexican engraver.
Salvador Dali - Spellbound
This is some set design work created by Dali for a movie made in 1945 called Spellbound. I have two images of this, his pre-sketch for the set which was oil paint on masonite, below. 
and also one of the final result on the set for the movie.
What I like in the contrast of the two images is the introduction of a human scale into the intial plan, and then how this results in the final outcome. Also what I find interesting is how the painting transitions into a background, the intial image is my favourite because you can see the work that has been put into it i.e the paint strokes and pencil, you can identify the medium. What I like about the photograph is that you can see the age, you can identify a time period. However with the uniqueness of the backdrop it blurs this period even though you know when it is, its hard to know where it is.
