Wu Guanzhong: Guilin

“Wu Guanzhong’s paintings of Guilin landscapes can be grouped into works from the 1970s and 1990s. The earlier paintings rely more on sketches from life and are executed with complex compositions and detailed depictions of scenery. The latter ones focus on the charm and atmosphere, with simplified compositions and refined colour palettes. The artist himself…

Emil Nolde: Blumen

Emil Nolde (born Hans Emil Hansen; 7 August 1867 – 13 April 1956) was a German-Danish painter and printmaker. He was one of the first Expressionists, a member of Die Brücke, and was one of the first oil painting and watercolor painters of the early 20th century to explore color. He is known for his…

Bach, Bouguereau, and Hilary Hahn

“L’Attente is a late expression of the subject matter that appealed to Bouguereau throughout his long artistic career. The painting is a fantasie, or a theme inspired by Antiquity.”L’Attente is a late expression of the subject matter that appealed to Bouguereau throughout his long artistic career.

Cedric Morris: Plants and the Schnake Pot

“In the winter months at Benton End when the days were shorter and the temperature dropped, Morris would paint indoors using his vast collection of plants and pots to compose imaginative arrangements which he would then translate onto canvas. The present work, painted in November 1969, is one such work and demonstrates how even in…

Camille Pissarro: Automne à Eragny

One of the most prominent avant-garde painters of his generation, Pissarro had achieved enormous success as both an Impressionist and a Neo-Impressionist painter. Adjusting certain elements from his classic Impressionist period of the 1870s, and combining them with characteristics of his Neo-Impressionist style of the 1880s, in the early 1890s Pissarro began developing a fresh…

Thomas Moran: Grand Canyon

“Thomas Moran first visited the Grand Canyon in 1873 alongside famed explorer John Wesley Powell. The breathtaking views of the vast chasm undoubtedly captured the artist’s attention, as he would revisit the natural site on multiple occasions throughout his life and even wrote, “Of all places on earth the great canyon of Arizona is the…

Adrien-Jean Le Mayeur de Merprès: Three Women in the Garden

“Apart from his depiction of lush nature and lithe women, it is his characteristic coloring and the manner in which he applies pigment onto the canvas that truly makes Le Mayeur a renowned artist. In accordance with the habits of an Impressionist painter, Le Mayeur painted outdoors to capture sights bathed in natural light. The…

Odilon Redon: L’enfant prédestinée, Ophélie

There is a willow grows askant the brookThat shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream.Therewith fantastic garlands did she makeOf cornflowers, nettles, daisies, and long purples,That liberal shepherds give a grosser name,But our cold maids do “dead men fingers” call them.There on the pendant boughs her coronet weedsClamb’ring to hang, an envious sliver broke,When…

Víkingur Ólafsson: Bach’s Goldberg Variations

“The Goldberg Variations contain some of the most virtuosic keyboard music ever written, some of the most astonishingly brilliant uses of counterpoint in the repertoire and countless instances of exalted poetry, abstract contemplation and deep pathos – all within immaculately shaped structures of formal perfection. In 30 variations, built on the humble harmonic framework of…

William Adolphe Bouguereau: The Pieta

“The immediate inspiration for Pietà came not from Bouguereau’s devout Christianity, but from the painful loss of his eldest son Georges who died on July 19, 1875 at the age of sixteen. After spending several months overwhelmed by grief, Bouguereau sought to lift his spirits by fully immersing himself in his art. For several weeks,…

Bach, Beethoven, Schubert, and Schiff

“Consistent with the Impressionist aesthetic that Berthe Morisot fervently espoused, Woman at Her Toilette attempts to capture the essence of modern life in summary, understated terms…Rendered with soft, feathery brushstrokes in nuanced shades of lavender, pink, blue, white, and gray, the composition resembles a visual tone poem, orchestrated with such perfumed and rarified motifs as…

Vernet: Mountain Landscape With Approaching Storm

“This is one of a pair of monumental landscapes commissioned by the Marquess of Lansdowne for his famous collection at Berkeley Square in London. Originally, this depiction of the destructive power of a violent storm was meant to find its complement in a beautiful sunset harbor scene. The two paintings were separated in the early…

Evangelina Mascardi: Lute Suite in E Major (Bach)

“Painted in 1925, the present work is an outstanding example of Anglada-Camarasa’s departure from his early depictions of gitanas as the colourfully exotic denizens of the gaudy music halls and cafés-concerts of Paris. From 1907 Anglada-Camarasa began to paint his gitanas in a softer, more vulnerable light, accompanied by small children. Blossoming, vibrant flowers encircle the figures of mother and child, with…

Unbroken – A Poem

Frank Cadogan Cowper: The Blue Bird (1918)

“The Blue Bird appeared at the RA in 1918, the last year of the Great War. Military images dominated the exhibition and the picture must have struck an incongruous note amid the portraits of generals, tributes to indomitable Tommies, romanticised accounts of ‘bringing up the guns’, and poignant war memorials…The picture does, however, undoubtedly relate…

Bonnard and Bach

“Albrecht Mayer discovered the music of J.S. Bach at the age of 8, as a choirboy at Bamberg Cathedral. Within a couple of years he was able to play some of the composer’s simpler keyboard pieces on the piano. “Even then,” he recalls, “I could feel this transcendent image of his music going through my…
