Henri Matisse was a French Artist during the Cubist and Fauvist period, which influenced his art greatly. Although he was primarily known as a painter, he was also a printmaker, sculptor, and draughtsman. His piece Mademoiselle Yvonne Landsberg resembles that of a print; however, it is in oil painting. Mademoiselle Yvonne Landsberg is believed to have been a piece in which Matisse was experimenting with new ideas and methods, as this painting appears to be very labor intensive. There are multiple parts of the painting where Matisse scraped away layers of paint and leave behind lines that parallel cross-hatching. The aspect of the painting that is different from other cubist pieces of the time are the lines that emanate from the Mlle Landsberg, thought to be a depiction of her movement while the piece was being made.

Though he may seem acquitted and amiable, Gerard de Villefort can be dangerous and even murderous. Gerard has done numerous things in his life to corroborate his sinfulness, including the assayed murder of his son, Andrea, by burying him alive when he was a newborn. Gerard is also one of the three main conspirators in the Count's arrest and imprisonment; it is he who is the most measurable of the three. The Count, Edmond Dantes, was an innocent man about to be married, before Gerard’s conception between right and wrong was twisted by the name of his father in a letter. Also, Gerard forces his wife to commit suicide; even though he had had many faults of his own.
I hold my pen in hand to express my feelings of indebtedness towards you Mr. John Abbott. My name is Gabriel Dumont; I am an anti-European metis scholar and Lawyer. Dexterous at what I do, I became the advisor to Louis Riel and one of his closest friends. I was born in Red River between the years 1847-1849 (my exact birth date is unknown). Throughout my youth people found me to be quite intelligent. I was born to the second in command of the metis national committee. My father was an influential man. I studied law in Scotland, becoming one of the élite to my class. In 1865 I returned to my beloved home Red River. I became good friends with a young man named Joseph Clark; he was the man who introduced me to Louis Riel. Promptly Louis and I became fast friends; I was fascinated by Riels intellect and his skills of persuasion. I learned that my father and Louis’ father had been close friends in the past before my father’s unexpected death. In 1869 Riel had become the metis leader just like his father. I am confident that we the metis in Red River did a substantial deed for the thousands of metis scattered across Ruperts land to Assiniboia. By taking over Fort Garry my people and I had sole control of what had belonged to us for thousands of years,...

Louis Riel played a big role in Canada and was fighting for the rights of Metis. He was captured and executed by Canadian authorities in November 16, 1885 in Regina. Louis Riel did not receive a fair trial due that he was fighting for the rights of the Metis and people. It was inappropriate to accuse Riel as a traitor. He tried to defend the traditional right of Metis and equal people and dedicated his life to help others like Metis, Native Indians and Western settlers. He gained a lot of respect and was a good leader. Riel was a person who stepped up and was not afraid to tell the government what they needed.

His plan was equal everyone out and to devise of Canada with many races, such as Catholic and Protestant. Many people respected him and were confident in him. Louis Riel was not a traitor in Canada and did not receive a fair tria...
