I like this one because there’s so much going on and the shading at the back makes it look really realistic. There’s lots of mixed media which make it look way better and REALISTIC.
I like it because the shading at the back makes it look really realistic and cool.
The mixed media looks so good/realistic/Artistic.
Artwork from Canonbury based on the shipwreck from The Tempest.
Thank you Canonbury.
that is so cool i like how you used all different colours.
I have really enjoyed
I like how prospero is looking through the leafs on the tree to see
i really like the picture it is fun to learn about miss tollemache and she has a nice outfit the gown is nice and the scarf is nice she has ringlets in her hair they are beautiful and her dad is hiding in the tree and caliban is crouching down on the floor looking at her.
I like this painting because there was a nice looking lady (Miranda) but her dad looks very mean hiding in the bushes! There was a big storm and if you look very carefully you can see a ship that was a shipwreck.
I really liked this painting and learning about the play the Tempest .Did you notice the abandoned shipwreck in the distance? I really liked all the little and interesting details all over the painting like the man in the tree who is Prospero ,Miranda’s father and Caliban beside her feet who is Prospero’s slave i really loved all our work on this painting and enjoyed it very much.
Hi I am Kamil and I wanted to tell you that the mrs Tollemache painting was outstanding and I Especlialy liked the background and Prospero.
I liked this painting because if you look you can see Caliban the monster and if you look hard you can see the ship wreck. Also it is really hard to understand unless you know the tempest. Today I did a quick burst writing and I liked it.
Hi I love painting I like how the artist Joshua Reynolds made us look at the shipwreck very easily and I know that Mranda is looking at Prince Ferdinand including Caliban the montser although Ferdinand is not in the painting but it’s just a very good story called the Tempest I have been learning about it with the characters like Miranda,Prospero,Caliban and the people in the ship and I enjoyed the Tempest very much.
It’s cool that Joshua Reynolds has made a painting about the play the Tempest by Shakespeare.In the picture as well, is a lot of different details such as the shipwreck and Prospero hidden in the tree with his magic staff.
I really like the hidden details especially how Mrs Tollemaches hand guides us to the ship wreck from the tempest spell that prospero unleashed.
I have really enjoyed seeing this painting. It is amazing to learn it is based on a Shakespeare play(The Tempest.)My favourite character is Caliban he is pretty weird though.I liked the shipwreck in the background.The hidden details surprised me at first but they are very cool eg: Caliban emerging from the ground or Prospero lurking on Miranda in the foliage and the depraved enemies sinking in the ship.I was surprised to see how pale Miranda or Mrs Tollemache is.
I really liked this painting and the hidden details. Like the father Prospero hiding in the trees or Caliban coming out of the ground and the hidden shipwreck in the back. I enjoyed watching a short video about the tempest plot. Now that I watched it a lot of questions have been answered to me like what is Miranda looking so shocked about. Now I know.
I really like this painting because it’s connected to the Tempest .The Tempest is a very great play that Prospero a man who got thrown on a island because the Duke of Milan threw him off . One day Prospero caused a terrible storm and nearly everyone but the Duke of Milan and some of his friends and his son survived . Prospero had a daughter named Miranda who was a very beautiful girl.Miranda fell in love with the Duke of Milan son.Joshua Reynolds has hidden a shipwreck in the background and in the foreground there is a man hiding I thought it was Prospero because it looked like he was spying on his daughter Miranda.
Thank you for the summary of the play Mikhaila.
I really like the hidden details especially how Mrs Tollemach’s hand guides us to the ship wreck from the tempest spell that Prospero unleashed.
Well spotted Massih. Yes Miranda’s hand does lead our eyes towards the shipwreck.
I Loved learning about Mrs Tollemache and the tempest.
Prospero was an interesting character because in Shakespeare’s play Prospero turned into a magician.
Hi I am Teddy I really like the painting at first in the painting I thought Prospero was creepy and scary but now I have watched the Tempest i know now that it is her father. I thought Prospero was holding an axe but now i know it is a wand because I watched the Tempest you wouldn’t understand if you didn’t watch the Tempest.
i like this painting because the story has a happy ending because they all get on the ship and go back home and forgive each other.
Almost. Caliban is not happy at the end of the play.
HI my name is Amani im very interested about Joshua Reynolds painting the tempest it was very fun and I really like the characters like for instants caliban miranda prospero prince of naples and ariel the sprite and when the shipwreck happened it was really cool and i also like the blends and the the types of paint.
I really like this painting because Prospero is behind the trees watching what his daughter is doing. This painting is very interesting and realistic. Underneath Miranda, Caliban is underneath the ground and he is staring at something. Prospero might’ve turned Caliban to a creature with his magic staff. His eyes makes him look scary and in the background, I can see horizons and in The Tempest. Prince Ferdinand is the prince of the Naples and he wants to marry Miranda in the film because how young, beautiful, clever and educated women she was. You could understand Joshua Reynolds painting if you watched the film called ‘The Tempest’ you could understand his painting. Joshua Reynolds worked very hard to make his painting realistic.
Thank you Aryan for your detailed information.
I like this painting because it has a shipwreck in the background.And I think it has something to do with the play.I also like the monster at the front I think its a troll.
Hi Jack. Caliban is a witches’ son. More like a goblin.
Did you know there is a shipwreck in the backround and in the trees there is something like a skeloton
The painting is very detailed my favourite characater is Calavan.
I like the painting because I think it looks like a photo in my opinion.although I recently found out that there was a shipwreck in the background I also like how Miranda’s dad Prospero is hiding in the foliage I really like the painting.
I’m glad you enjoyed in Santana.
I liked learning about the tempest and what happened in the play I think its amazing what Prospero did to his enemy,s ship which tried to kill him .Its an amazing painting and how almost every thing in the play is in the painting.
Yes Max. All the key elements of the plot are in the painting.
I like the painting because it is connected to the famous play of the Tempest and also because there are lots of details to notice.I think that Mrs’Tollemache’s husband wanted to showcase his wife and to flatter her.In the tree, a man is hiding.It is Prospero, Miranda’s father, who is spying on prince Ferdinand.
I enjoyed learning about Mrs Tollemache and details.
E.g. Prospero in the tree on the left.
In the picture it shows Mrs Tollemache as Miranda walking to Ferdinand,the prince of Milan after being shipwrecked by Prosporo’s evil magic because his father the King had shipwrecked him and his baby daughter on the island with this man who got turned into a beast by Prosperos magic called Caliban.
i really liked the work it is fun to learn about. It has helped me with my writing. She has a nice gown and a golden scarf and her dad is in the tree and caliban is crouching down on the floor watching her standing there. The dad has a magic wand in his hand.
I’m glad you found it fun and it has helped you. Thank you for all your contributions Amelia.
I have really enjoyed this project and I think it is quite a happy ending that they all got together and sailed away happily ever after and Caliban was left on the island all alone.I think Miranda was quite happy and relifed to get off the island in the end.Another reason that I liked the ending is because Prospero threw away his magic books and wand.I liked the bits when the fairy went and started spying on the baddies like the king and Caliban. Thank you for this project.
It was a pleasure Gaby. I’m pleased you enjoyed the project.
why is the DAD Spying
He’s checking to see what his daughter Miranda is doing.
here is my writing
Congratulations Honor.
I really enjoyed this writing
I’m pleased you enjoyed the task Reuben.
Here is my writing based on the Tempest
Congratulations Hannah.
This pictur is so buitiful and how many minit did it take to paint it
Hi both, just one artist painted this: Sir Joshua Reynolds. Wait until you see how big it is when you visit Kenwood.
We like the realistic painting of Miranda. We noticed Mirandas father in the trees hiding and Caliban hiding in the dirty ,muddy ground hole. Her hand leads to a wooden shipwreck and lights it up. Miranda is a young, beautiful lady which is painted younger. We think she is trying to hug a beautiful prince who is the son of king Naples named Ferdinand. We learnt about the story of the Tempest and it made the painting make sense!
Mrs Tollemache is a pretty young lady whos father is Prospero and if at her left hand you can see her arm underlining the shipwreck that is in the background. Outside the picture is a handsome prince gazing at her! If you look carefully into the orangey brown trees, you can see Miranda’s father hiding. The one poking out of the hole is Caliban the creepy slave who works for him. We loved learning about the Tempest and seeing parts of the story in the painting.
Thank you both. Yes it is an interesting painting as the figures in the painting are looking at something outside the painting.
We love this picture because it is inspired by Shakespeare. We also like this because it has a beautiful woman in the center of it.
The picture has lots of colors Oliver likes the hair of the girl
Lucas saw Prospero spying on Maranda and the slave next to Mirandas leg, Oliver can see the shipwreck in the background and it looks realistic.
Yes the shipwreck is very realistic. I agree.
I’m Jessica and I like the way the painting makes you wonder what Amanda is staring at also I like how hidden Prospero is in the trees and how funny Caliban looks. I also it is like Amanda’s arm is underlining the shipwreck in the horizon .I’m Adem and I like when Prospero was staring through the trees and when Ferdinand and Miranda fell in love. We really enjoyed learning about the Tempest and how it is shown in the painting.
Thank you. I’m pleased you enjoyed the painting and play.
I really like the painting and loved luring about the back-ground story ( the Tempist )
The tempest is a very realistic photo, it has a very sophisticated landscape and uses a lot of natural colours. The father in the tree spying on Miranda seems a bit weird but when you learn the story it seems fine. by Reuben
The painting is very beautiful and relaxed uses some colourful silky white dress coming down her body.
By Saim
we have notice Prospero is hiding in the lush, green foliage spying on his daughter. Cariban is a nice and best slave and Prospero put a spell on him so his daughter wont love Cariban.
It’s realistic and I think it is very beautiful.The shipwreck is hard to notice but adds a story to the picture. I like thinking of other reasons that Prospero is spying on his
daughter, Miranda.
we learnt alot about it and it is intresting
Loved the painting and the animation was cool but i had to rely on the pictures because i could not understand what they were saying?Other than that great great story and storyline
I really like the way somebody is looking through the trees. I also like how Caliban has been drawn. In class, we watched the animation and we couldn’t understand a thing the characters were saying only when the sound was turned up really high. But I still loved it all the same.

mrs tollemache is a really pretty person she is cute .i love her white dress it really stands out on her!she is an amazing person and she is might be old but very pretty!!
Yes Retaj. The white dress does make her stand out.
All of the details are very amazing and I think the man hiding in the bush looks a bit weird.
I like the details and the man in the bush looks a bit weird
Bye
Mad and sad and like i wont to go in the palnting and help the boy because so I can slap and help little boy.
So many lovely comments and you are right, there is a lot going on in this painting and even more when you hear the play! We agree the painting itself is great with the beautiful colours and contrasts. You made some very special artwork too, with wonderful blues and dark, threatening skies! You obviously found this painting very interesting.
