Tiziano Vecellio, Martirio di S. Lorenzo (1559)
Ok, I don’t usually like modern art that much, but this is special.
Joshua Reynolds, Mrs Siddons as the Tragic Muse (1785)
Found in my book while studying portraits in the XVIII century.
(Source: Wikipedia)
Pietro Perugino, Maria Maddalena (ca. 1500)
Just one of the pictures used during my history of modern art classes. So delicate and smooth.
Toby Edward Rosenthal, Elaine (1874)
Yay, another beauty seen last summer @AIC. The subject is the same of the famous painting The Lady of Shallott by Waterhouse.
Gaetano Previati, La Danza delle Ore (1899)
Oh, this one really makes you dream. (@Gallerie d’Italia - Piazza Scala, Milan)
Thomas Hart Benton, Susanna and the Elders (1938)
seen always in S. Francisco, @de Young Museum
Pablo Picasso, Allan Stein (1906)
- seen last summer during my vacation in S. Francisco.
Vincent Van Gogh, Prisoners Round (1890)
Ah, this reminds me of my high school English literature classes about The Ballad of Reading Gaol by Oscar Wilde.
I KNOW not whether Laws be right,
Or whether Laws be wrong;
All that we know who lie in gaol
Is that the wall is strong;
And that each day is like a year,
A year whose days are long.
Ai Weiwei, Sunflower Seeds @Tate Modern (dic. 2010) - photo taken by me.
Just the moment I fell in love with him.
