Magritte and Hegel

So a fellow grad student of mine called my attention to the fact that Magritte painted a painting entitled "Hegel's Holiday". Painted in 1957, this is what it looks like:






He jokingly said I should write my paper for my Phenomenology of Spirit on it; which would somehow go over horribly with Rockmore, because we're dealing with Hegel, not Magritte.

But then I was thinking it'd be interesting not just to analyze the painting in relation to Hegel's philosophy as representing that philosophy, but to, in turn, analyze it from within Hegel. To use Hegel's aesthetic theory to interpret the painting, which Magritte supposedly believed expressed perfectly Hegel's dialectic. So I thought that be a great project. If only I knew Hegel's aesthetics.
