Pierre-Auguste Renoir: Confidence

“Painted in 1897, Confidence captures a couple in a private moment of conversation, the woman’s lips slightly parted as she leans in to speak, the man’s head lowered in a posture of concentration. The intimacy of the scene is emphasized by the extremely close vantage point, with both heads abruptly cropped by the edges of…

Joaquín Sorolla: Las tres hermanas en la playa (1908)

“As the writer Thomas Ybarra related, following one of his many interviews with the artist in New York: “In everything he does and says, Señor Sorolla gives evidence of that joyous inner self which find constant expression in his sparkling, sun-bathed canvases, in the rollicking beach-children of Valencia …the present painting depicts three young sisters,…

Allan Clayton: Ingenious Bee, from Berenice, HWV 38 (Handel)

Vedi l’ape ch’ingegnosa Su quei for vola e riposa Dove più trova d’umor. Ne si arresta ancor che bello Sembri a lei di questo e quello Solo e semplice il color. Consider the bee, who cunningly flits among the flowers and rests wherever it suits him best. He never stops on account of how beautiful…

José Villegas y Cordero: The Andalusian Fates (c1910-13)

The three figures gaze directly out of the picture plane, their sight lines directed toward the viewer….

The great green and gold diamond of the hillside punctuated by the vertical…

Paul Sérusier: Synchronie en vert

“Synchrony in Green is a composition characterised by a limited colour range. The simplification of planes reinforces the sober and expressive nature of this still life, and these values are in turn heightened by the geometric shapes of the elements portrayed. Set in an undefined interior, in the foreground we perceive a jug and three…
