Last week on Friday, the class was scheduled to go on a trip to the Hispanic Society Museum and Library. Although I arrived seven minutes late to the meeting spot, which was in front of the museum, I was able to meet the group inside the building. Many paintings were displayed, and I noticed most were oil-painted portraits. There were interesting items in glass cases. One item of the many that piqued my interest was an ivory statuette called the Good Shepherd Rockery, considered a carving tradition of Portuguese India. It shows an image of a young shepherd seated on a pile of stones, with plants thriving in the gaps, home to different animals. This reminded me of Land Without Bread since there are many scenes related to children and the filming took place in a rocky landscape. Although Buñuel didn’t use any lambs throughout the film, there were other four-legged animals, such as a donkey or goats. Religion wasn’t really used in Land Without Bread, but it is a subject he used many times throughout his films. What I learned for the duration of the tour was that Buñuel and Joaquín Sorolla’s goal was to display their vision that contributed to certain parts of Spain. As both their works are staged for their own purposes, there is still an objective: to illustrate a culture and arrange life that revolved around the locals during that era. They also included various statues of people, from the high class to the lower class.
