Description

      This photo, which is used by the Van Gogh Museum Cafe advertisement, is too simple but has a considerable impact. It reminds me of  Van Gogh whose ear was cut by himself. Cutting ear is so cruel, but cutting handle is interesting expression which makes us laugh. However, in my opinion, this coffee, which is black coffee, looks tasteless.
Furthermore, I can't feel warmth in this photo which lacks human feelings. The reason why I can't feel taste and warmth  is lacking of colors. The overall  tone,which is used restrictively, is almost monochromatic.  Therefore, this photo hardly shows its feelings that are caused by limited colors such as white and black. Anyway, it is certain that this photo has a  humorous factor.
