<u>ESSAY WORK</u>
Interestingly, in this story the narrator Nick tries to describe the characters Tom, Gatsby and Daisy to readers from his own perspective. This was evident in the use of the word 'I' as Nick describes events.
However, Nick seems to be unreliable because at a point in time in his narration he said, "I am one of the few honest people I ever know". This statement creates a feeling of doubt about his narration to the reader.
The whole interpretation of the story is affected by his constant bias between the characters; speaking favourably to one character- Gatsby over the others. Thus he portrays Gatsby as <em>the leading icon,</em> which influences how the reader sees Gatsby.
The correct answer would seem to me that the artwork suggests a woman in her home, while the poem's figurative language connects her to nature.
The artwork is giving us an image of a Japanese woman, quite possibly a geisha due to the other imagery stated in the poem. She is sat in front of her mirror in the morning beginning her daily ritual of applying her makeup.
The poems figurative language makes use of giving us comparisons of the woman to aspects of nature, such as hair the color of seaweed spread over rocks, fingerprints of pollen, curve of a shoulder like the slope of a hill set deep in snow in a country of huge white solemn birds, her face appears in the mirror a reflection in a winter pond.

Washington Irving's "The Adventure of the Mysterious Picture" is a gothic story where the characters staying in the house were talking, sharing stories of haunted places. And the host of the house had 'in jest' said that one of the rooms was haunted, so the her of the nigh will be revealed the next morning after they had all spent their nights in their own allotted rooms.
The passage in the question gives the details of the narrator's room. he had seen a picture hanging in his allotted room and had been unable to ignore it. He felt all sorts of uneasiness, unable to even sleep properly, constantly thinking there's someone hovering above him. The tone of the passage gives us a feeling of horror, sending shivers down the spine, making us feel uneasy. This passage makes it possible that the room was indeed haunted, making even us, the readers, scared of what will happen and what really is the picture about. It spreads a feeling of uncomfortable, and scared feeling in the narrator and the readers altogether.
