John William Waterhouse: Good Neighbours

“The attention to realistic harmony of colour and naturalistic detail is paramount in these early pictures, which were to an extent eclipsed by the idealism of the nymphs and sorceresses that increasingly dominated his work from the 1890s onwards. The early works of Waterhouse bear comparison with the best work of the Newlyn painters, particularly…

Zhang Daqian: Temple at the Mountain Peak

“Temple at the Mountain Peak confronts us with a staggering mountain that is both monumental in scale and visually impressive. Through the hues of blue and green, Zhang gives credence to his own philosophy: “the best brush strokes are gentle but not effete, bold but not wild, profound yet clear”. Zhang’s composition lends an air…

Léon-Augustin Lhermitte: La Famille

“By the time Lhermitte took up the harvesting themes and country market scenes that would make his name, the wide-spread antagonism that had greeted Jean-François Millet’s paintings of working peasants thirty years earlier had largely disappeared, dissipated by an improving rural economy and by a political climate that deliberately celebrated the peasant as a mainstay…

Yenne Lee: Autumn Leaves

Jeune femme assise jouant de la guitare belongs to a group of works that Renoir painted of women and men playing the guitar. Renoir’s appreciation for “La Belle Otéro,” a dancer at the Folies-Bergère who was celebrated at the time as the embodiment of Spanish seduction, is thought to have inspired these works. Although the…

Eva Cassidy: Time After Time

“Carefully divided into hot and cold-colored areas, the composition is dominated by the undulating lines of the dress, guitar, armchair and cushion that contrast with the verticals of the background. The white dress is shaped by white gradations. Shades of blue and grey suggest the play of shade and light on the garment…” READ FULL…

Diego Rivera: Pepenadora

“It’s executed in a technique that Rivera referred to as “temple al óleo” or oil painting with tempera in which tempera is used as a binding substance for the oil pigments creating a looseness and transparency similar to the effects of his fresco murals as well as a visual quality reminiscent of the great medieval…

Justin Johnson: One Horse Town

“The Skagen painters were a group of Danish and Scandinavian painters who gathered each summer in the small fishing village of Skagen, on Denmark’s northernmost tip, from the early 1870s to the turn of the 20th century…Influenced by French Impressionism and the Realist tendencies of the Barbizon school, the Skagen painters were drawn to the…

Hermenegildo Anglada-Camarasa: Romería, the Gipsy Dance

“Plaintive yet passionate, earthy yet full of grace, the Spanish gitana has been all but synonymous with Spain since her kinsfolk first landed on Iberia’s shores in the fifteenth century from as far afield as India. The Spanish came to revere but also fear gypsies because of their nomadic way of life and the freedoms…

Vera Danilina: Classical Guitar Concert

Influenced by his contact with Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard during the 1890s, Henri Lebasque spent the better part of his career painting the quiet moments of family life.  While Vuillard focused his intimiste vision on the domestic interior, a number of Bonnard’s Nabis paintings depict figures outside, and it is Bonnard who seems to…

Georgia O’Keeffe: Anthurium

“In the present work, O’Keeffe skillfully renders the heart-shaped flower’s waxy texture and creates sharply delineated contours with her assured brushstrokes. She utilizes vibrant hues of red and green to imbue the composition with a sense of vitality and dynamism. By reducing extraneous details, O’Keeffe emphasizes the natural beauty of the flower and compels her viewer…
