    Edouard Manet - Spring and Autumn (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    In 1881, Édouard Manet tentatively began work on a new series of four portraits; Spring - Summer - Autumn - and Winter.The idea was not entirely his own - having come instead from a conversation Manet shared with his close friend, the journalist Antonin Proust (who had not directly “commissioned” the series, but apparently “strongly requested” it.) But still, the artist set to work . . . taking “Spring” as his first subject.And as we can see by the painting below - Manet’s finished painting is a

    Johannes Vermeer - The Milkmaid (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    It can be hard to explain how an ordinary act or a simple moment in time can still take on such a profound level beauty.After all, when we first go looking for great art, we are so often seeking something a little more dramatic; whether that is in Turner’s blazing sunsets, or Van Gogh’s Starry Nights, or the sheer awe of Michelangelo’s Sistine Frescoes and the mysterious beauty of Leonardo da Vinci’s women. So in essence, this is often what great art is all about - i.e we are looking for things

    Simon Vouet - A retrospective (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Simon Vouet is an artist who is long overdue a resurgence.Though his work has never been fully lost or forgotten in the centuries since his death in 1649 (Aged 59) - still, his reputation is certainly not what it was at the height of his career, when Simon was serving as court painter to Louis XIII, and was widely considered the leading master in Paris at the time.So today, I wanted to just take some time to do a brief little retrospective on his art - with a selection of works to show the immen

    Marc Chagall - The Madonna of the village (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    No matter if he is painting religious images, landscapes, life memories or sheer fantasies . . . Marc Chagall’s work always comes with such a beautiful dream-like quality.And with today’s painting “The Madonna of the Village”. we have another masterpiece in Chagall’s unmistakeable style - with a work that genuinely seems to reveal a new detail or new interpretation with every viewing.But today, I actually wanted to cover a story behind the creation of this work instead - because in fact, it is a

    Claude Lorrain - A beautiful Embarkation (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    The full title of our work today is “Seaport with the Embarkation of the Queen of Sheba” And as the title suggests, it is a technically religious work - inspired by a story in the Old Testament First Book of Kings, where The Queen of Sheba visits King Solomon in Jerusalem._But to be honest, the religious narrative here is really quite secondary for the artist. (In fact, his main character is barely even noticeable unless we know who we are looking for!)Thus, what we have here first and foremost,
