Casting Crowns: I Heard The Bells on Christmas Day
“In the late 1860s, Monet started to extend the need to capture sensations and render “the effect” to all transitory, even fleeting states of nature. Taking Pissarro, Renoir and Sisley with him, Monet tackled the great challenge of a snow-covered landscape, which Courbet had grandly explored with great success not long before. Toning down Courbet’s…
Pentatonix: My Heart With You
“An aspect of Bonnard’s art that grew in importance after 1900 was his Impressionist inheritance and its influence is very evident in the present work.

Rabindranath Tagore: Where The Mind Is Without Fear
