friends, I don't want to lie, laziness makes a monster out of a person (you probably know who I mean :_))

I plan to return to my account, and I plan to introduce you to many masterpieces of art 🤌

I just found this by accident and I think the dude literally captured what I do at 3am in front of the mirror. He's another damn genius who clearly knows something.

Hubert Robert - "The Old Temple"

[deipa01]

Love this author, i like his idea "sunshine in destruction". Brimg some hope in hopeless times.

In this painting feel centered of old deep soul pain, destroy in sight and shine from part of heavens. Awesome choose for truth! Confrontation and unity in the same time.

By the way, yesterday I've been looking for something on paints shop and seems i saw this work. Someone sell it for ≈140$

-Boreas-

[deipa01]

The artist is image Boreas - Greece's north wind God. And he did it not ordinary, because Boreas is a man, son of Astreus and Eos, but on this work we see woman. On back (as on first plan) prevails gray and dark tones. So, typical imagine of cold north vibes. But it have something more remarkable. First, if we take a closer look, we can see, that tree in the right of woman is cracked, this means very strong wind scale. But also i think it can means destruction of all the old, and dive nature to sleep. With that, i can say the same about plants and flowers: clearly visible, how bad feel themselfs faded and discolored narcisses. By the way, narcisses - one more symbol of Boreas. By their "family name", narcisses were known as NARCISSISTIC and cold (by famous myth) which can be compared both with the mood of the whole picture and with the main theme. Also the flower in woman's hair the same symbolic. Second detail on back plan is a bird. Bird - symbol of freedom, speed and wind, of course. Ordinary symbol, like a scarf on lady playing in wind flows - only pointing on character of work. (But it can also be interpreted as a flight of birds - a change of life, a desire for change, or, on the contrary, an effort to keep everything in good condition and not change one's comfort). Third detail, that i want to light - sky in the horison. I can say with confidence, that is a sundown. Another form of ending autumn, and colors of lady's scarf, patterns on her dress - omens of upcoming winter.

Well, to avoid being a boring bore, i just can say about perfect fulfillment this work by author. Very accurate selected colours and lighting, however, as always;)

I want to continue research art of Waterhouse, and I'll be please, if you recommend me anything.

On this week i visited three beautiful expositions and honestly it was amazing. I didn't know before, that in my small town museums have got ORIGINAL works of Flamand artist XI-XVII centuries and also works of Russian artists i ever not to see before.

The most of all i liked work of Ayvazovsky (1817-1900) "Moonly night" (1868). When i looked on this painting, t saw not just painting, i had to drain in this canvas: i had to feel those smells of salty water, feel those soft breeze and distant premonition of a storm... THIS PAINTING JUST SWALLOWED ME! On some minutes the lights in museum had to turn off and WHAT THE HELL PAINTING IS GLOWED RAAAAAH?!?! Very, very amazing work, i just to fall in love

Second i would like to pick out work of another russian artist Isaak Levitan (1860-1900) "Alley" (ab. 1880). LOOK ON THIS PLAY OF HIGHLITS AND SHADOWS!!!! Real, real master of his work, he just another the damn genius, REAL genius. Don't say a word about that technics, that it was creatured a long time before Levitan. IT'S BEAUTIFUL

Third of the my most likely works is too by russian artist, it's Nikolay Makovsky (1841-1886) "Illumination of Moscow" (1883). It looks like magic... I can't believe that in XIX century technologies was as perfect as there. Real magic... It looks like today's Moscow if revolution hasn't been. Crazy views. XIX's dresses and modern illuminated combinated in amazing thing. Wow

The Death of Icarus (b.1823-1889) by Alexandre Cabanel

[deipa01]

One of my most favorite artists and not less favorite art. I love Greece's myths and i sure the artist is sent us main idea of this story.

Storming sea, gray piece of sky, scattered ammunition of "overweening" united in center of painting - in dying Icarus with broked wings. All things in there are gathered into emotional shred of hopelessness and morality.

Don't be Icarus, be cleverer:)

Albert Bierstadt - "A Deer at Sunset" (1887)

[deipa01]

Very difficult lights play, accurately selected colors, shadows... Rah, it's kinda perfect

[classicalcanvas]

Water Lilies painted by Claude Monet (1840 - 1926)

[deipa01]

His technic of painting with play of brushstrokes, colors and lights are hypnotically. Just blurred images and our brain is units to this beautiful.

Impressionism is amasing.

Upd: the fact that Claude Monet was obsessed with water lilies and the last 30 years he painted over 200 paints of lilies... i think in nearest time i will get obsessed with this too... ;)

[emptyjunior]

not to be art snob guy but everyone knows that the Mona Lisa isn't the most valuable painting in the world cause he painted the woman so "beautiful" right. Like I just saw someone compare another painting (that was good!) but go this one should be celebrated as much as the Mona Lisa, look how beautiful it is- okay you know that's not why tho right.

Da Vinci stepped into a realm of anatomy and technique that no-one had ever done before. He Mastered light in a time where they were just painting the background and the subject the exact same focus.

What we understand about aperture, perspective, the human eye- Da Vinci was utilising before the scientific community even knew what a retina did. Do you understand how Crazy that is.

He invented a 3D stereoscopic picture in the 1500s. It would take two more centuries before physicists even arrived at the concept of stereography.

Do you understand how much math that is. A lot of fucking math man.

And I'm not even talking about colour or texture rn!!! He did it so we can't see the brushstrokes! It would require x-rays to view the work he did.

I just know sometimes people go oh why's this painting so special- it's very important to me that you know that the Mona Lisa was like an Atomic Bomb on the Renaissance art community. Almost EVERY piece of art you view today you could track it's influence back to what da Vinci did.

Like other art deserves its time in the spotlight, of course, but you know we didn't all gather around one day and go this lady is the prettiest this painting shall now be the Best. It's the most valuable painting in the world because..,. Well because it's the most valuable painting in the world.

I sure he was the hell joker, because or he did know all things about this world or he just joked and found fun looking how people will be trying to understand his secrets. Genius oldie
