This art gallery explains the 6 characteristics of human nature: emotion, rebellion, chaos, hard times, work for what we want, and self-image.
Roses, Convolvulus, Poppies, and Other Flowers in an Urn on a Stone Ledge, Rachel Ruysch, ca. 1680s - ca. 1680s, From the collection of: National Museum of Women in the Arts
This picture represents human nature because humans feel as if they are dying on the inside but put on a pretty face to hide it. Similar to the flowers in the picture where the bottom ones are wilted.
No Swimming, Norman Rockwell, 1921, From the collection of: Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, MA
This painting represents the rebellious side of human nature. There is clearly a "no swimming" sign but the boys swim anyway. Every human has the tendency to rebel sometime or another.
The Fall of the Rebel Angels, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, 1562, From the collection of: Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium
This painting represents the chaos in the world. Human nature fights for what they believe in causing disagreement and chaos to enter the world.
The pinch of poverty, Thomas B. KENNINGTON, 1889, From the collection of: Art Gallery of South Australia
This shows poverty in the world which many humans face. The artist uses flowers to show the girl's innocence. He also portrays great emotion through the faces of this small family.
The Pedlar, Jheronimus Bosch, circa 1500, From the collection of: Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen
This painting shows a man working on a farm which relates to human nature because we have to work for things we want even if it is simple job, it is still labor.
(Main View), From the collection of: The J. Paul Getty Museum
This painting represents the saying, actions are a reflection of your personality. Human Nature is filled with wanting good reputations and would want to see a good reflection when looking in a mirror
