Oh... They're singing.

Don't they get hurt by the poison ?

Very interesting. Oleanders are native to the Mediterranean, which is most likely why they are present in the painting. They are also only deadly if consumed. I grew up with them in Southern California. They are lovely flowers.

Sigh… ok, Steve, do you don’t even care about me at all? Because it sure feels that way with how your water running display looks. You know what? Maybe my mother was right, you know she said she saw Henry’s mother at the store the other day… she he’s in the premed program now.

@gabisvintage this woman kinda looks like you ❤

Perhaps the painting represents, how, to 'hear' something, such as music, requires direct, physical contact? Such as Alexander Graham Bell, invented the telephone, in his attempts, to make something, to allow a deaf person, to 'hear' him?

Perhaps she's the MUSE of ART, as far as MUSIC is concerned?

I think this couple, got caught, in an embarassing embrace?

Is that JOHN PHILLIP SOUSA? The one who wrote, 'THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER'?

Why not paint worms slithering through the corpse of a deceased child? Its the same "beautiful" life happens dogma at work. It's the real live slitting of the healthy eyeball of a beautiful young woman on film or deliberately starving a dog to death in an art gallery, in the name of "Art". Yuck Art Deco YUCK!

Her eyes are hidden in the furious waves of her dark hair, but her intense gaze is not lost in the shadows. Instead, they overpower everything, drowning the viewer in the disturbing, overwhelming sorrow that put a spell on her…

Another interpretation maybe that the lamb represents Christ (as Jesus is often referred as the 'Lamb of God') and the sheep represents Mary. And the crows represents... I donno....maybe Jews ? (as orthodox jews mostly wear black)

I think that you are overthinking this painting.

Dzień dobry (good morning in polish). Here's your answer for the question about those innacuracies in terms of dates and details. Matejko was very patriotic, but not especially precise in the matter of when and what something exactly happened, he emphasised much more on the symbolics of specific event he recreated in his paintings than on presenting it the way they really happend. On top of that he was also not educated especially well if it comes to history so he liked to make up things he didn't know or wasn't shure about. The cherry on top might be the fact that he was blind as a pile of shit so I think the simplest answer to your question is : He didn't really care (about the details at least).

It’s not a painting. It is a woodblock print. A very involved process.

about ophelia ,i think the key word is " abandon".she abandoned herself to her fate.after all her misfortunes and her false attempt at suicide, letting her life ebb and flow with the water, the darkness of the water engulfing her.at least it is a more romantic view than a mere accident.that vacant look could be a sign of fatalism.you make great and well analysed video subjects.

Inept not Enept, if your going to pretend to be cheeky & witty its best to spell check your script. Just a bad flat footed foray into the world of MFA mavens. You re out of your league.

i can see why that would scandalize paris!

Sorry but the narration here (unlike your usual fine form) leaves me wanting. If you guys don't know what it is, you shouldn't lead us to believe you do. If datura is native to the Americas, that can't be datura, because the Columbian exchange had not occurred yet. How on earth would that be a fully dressed Eve, observing a fully undressed Adam, slumbering? Where did her clothes come from? And she is wearing quite a full outfit and hairstyle and everything. So, there is no general consensus? On what is happening here? I'm left confused.

these colonialists are always the first to do evil.

White is symbolic of death in eastern cultures. Blue blue is a color that symbolizes purity, cleanliness, and calmness. it's safe to say these fishermen are dead after this wave hits. Fuji is serene because it is unaffected by death. Things unaffected by death are considered gods.

So Jacques Louis David was an instagram filter.

and how do you know that he lied there you are? you slandered the pope

The mad hatter!!!!

turns out women have been doing this for centuries 🤣

Well, it figures my favorite painting might have inspired my second favourite!

Also, prostitution was as common as mud back in the day. Most young working class/impoverished young women "supplemented" their income this way, and it was not at all uncommon for women to be "kept" and actually given a regular allowance. People all up in arms about "Onlyfans" and "women prostituting themselves" but this sort of thing (prostitution/sugar babies) was "a day in the life" for most women who were not rich up until the World Wars.

I don't personally believe the scene behind her is a reflection in a mirror. It looks like either a double sided bar or open at the back. The man is standing too close to the woman behind her; if it was a "reflection" he would also be in the picture, with his back to the viewer. She appears to be standing alone, and is clearly tired from a long day at work. For a better idea of how she likely lived, maybe read Colette and her accounts of "life in the theatre/of a working-class woman back in the day".

The color of his clothes also indicates mourning.

the problem was they started to tax nobility.

Charles Ryder mentions this painting in the novel _Brideshead Revisited,_ although he calls it 'The Awakened Conscious,' not 'The Awakening Conscious.'

Truly beautiful. Extraordinary colors, symbolism. Today’s students lack any talent. No name is going to be remembered.

Thank you

❤

Woah.

This image is on my Ukulele, most of the image is just the wave. I never really seen the entire painting before, I appreciate your channel so much. My love of art has brought me here! Thank you! 🌊

Thanks! Your empathy for this painting encouraged me to buy a reproduction that is mounted right here on the wall next to my computer.

While I believe it is true that art speaks to individuals differently , I cannot imagine how anyone would see serenity or peacefulness in this work. It is definitely a beautiful and expressive piece though. Thank you for the video.

I joined this channel last week (24Apr2024) and just found these Shorts. Guess I don't get out much... Lots to like so far. Such a creative variety! Keep it going, AD!!

she looks like Anne with an E

She looks exactly like the girl in the car meme!

Everyone always asks where's Mona Lisa but no one ever asks how's Mona Lisa!

O you sure like the sound of your voice!😆

Face it. Religion is all man made and makes very little sense.

He painted her daughter naked is wild to me

In the winter, the geography of citrus cultivation plays a crucial role in the availability and diversity of citrus. While citrus trees are hardy and can thrive in various climates, certain regions become citrus havens during the winter months.

Oh no. I thought it was so beautiful, I even got this AI thing to mix this with a pic of my roommate's cat for Christmas.LOL
