  1. 📍A unicum of Attic pottery.

    This Attic red-figure chous (Greek: xoυς) (wine jug), attributed to the Eretria Painter (5th century BC), shows a special scene: a man, crowned with an olive wreath, places his child on an aiora during the Aiora ritual associated with the ancient Athenian Anthesteria festival.

  19. Did you know, it's super easy, using ChatGPT-4, to link the names in this #WIkidarta #Sparql Query to provenance texts from museums?
    I don't know how many people (#arthistorians #datascience nerds #provenance Researchers #AI or #semanticweb people) might be interested in this, but if you are, give me a shout out.
    It's crazy powerful and pretty easy.
    I tested the method on paintings in the #Harvard #Art #museums Results not bad at all.

  27. Visiting #Rijksmuseum, marvelling at "Fabrieksmeisjes in een regenbui" by Alexander Ver Huell. Each brush stroke adds life to the factory girls under the rain. Thoughts on their story?

  34. Any #ArtHistory folks know much about the history of color #gradients in art/painting?
    There's a very short wikipedia entry on "gradiation (art)," but I don't know where to look to learn more.
    In my experience, #painting a really smooth #gradient is a pretty tough process without digital tools. Was it thought of as a skillful act? Do I uniquely find it hard? Did it depend on scale?

    #ArtHistorians, please tell me what you know about gradients! 🙇🏼

  39. @baroquepawel So, interestingly, Elkins point as I see it (& I do like Elkins books) is that #arthistorians are always looking for new 'puzzles' to solve & so make the work(s) complex in their (very) interpretation;
    this, in a sense, intellectualises away a more visceral response (seeing such a response as naive or unthinking); but of course, if we take seriously (which I do) that art is the result of a conversation between #artist & beholder, then there can be no final 'meaning' only meaningS!

  44. Novel research of the day: Flammability of painted canvasses in the late 1800s. Also, how were they stored (flat or rolled up)?

    I am hoping they were quite flammable.
    I sent my questions to the local art museum. If any art history experts here have answers, I have questions.
