Baxandall: what is the symbolism in the chair and teapot looking wonky in this piece
me: shit idk, man. Maybe some people just don’t sit in chairs straight on, and they actually relax a bit? It’s really not that deep. It’s just a lady... taking tea

Paintings are, among other things, fossils of economic life
M Baxandall, Painting & Experience in 15th century Italy
15th century commissions
The Marquis of Mantua once wrote to the painter Mantegna:
“I intend to give you fifteen ducats monthly as salary, to provide lodgings where you can live comfortably with your family, to give you enough grain each year to cover generously the feeding of six mouths, and also the firewood you need for your own use...” (found in Baxandall’s Painting and Experience in Fifteenth-Century Italy.)
