"If I'm the Seated Woman with a Parasol I will be safe in my frame" Tori Amos - "Parasol"
I know for sure that this is not the only song about a painting but everytime I hear it I have to think of the painting "Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" by Georges Seurat. I once had to write an essay on that painting, in a what we call "Bildanalyse", and the seated woman with a parasol was one of the main figures... it's very strange. First you look at the woman with the child in the middle but then you notice the seated woman with a parasol. I wrote this whole bit about what she might feel or what she might think and I got the highest grade for it so I guess it was a success. So anyhoo, I just listened to that song and it came to my mind.
