Imagine you see a painting of a sunset. To one person, it feels calm and peaceful, like they're on vacation by the sea. To another person, it might look sad, like the sun is going away forever. That’s art interpretation. Just like stories can have different endings depending on who tells them, paintings can mean many things based on what you feel or think when you look at them. The artist didn’t draw one meaning; they gave people space to find their own.
