  1. "Shadows on the Sea. The Cliffs at Pourville," Claude Monet, 1882.

    Y'all know Monet.

    Here we see his Impressionist technique at its prime. Areas of light and shadow are illustrated with mere dots and dashes that come together to form the coherent whole...something like a TV screen. It's also a great evocation of those moments when a breeze ripples the sea, making it a surface of a million little mirrors.

    It's also a great image for this time of year, as we start looking forward to summer vacations. Here Monet does an excellent job of depicting a hot summer day on the seashore.

    From the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Copehnhagen.

  2. Meereslandschaft mit Mühle (Seascape with Mill), Béla Spányi

    I think I could have this on the wall for life, I can imagine being in this place and just spacing out for a while. Very peaceful. Makes me want to smoke a cigarette for some reason, maybe I still associate this kind of mental space with having a little break time.

    We have this kind of overcast weather here today. ❤️

  8. Giorgio Morandi: Uptight, But Into Butter Cream

    THE DAILY PIC (#1561): A few years ago, reviewing a survey show of Giorgio Morandi at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, I billed him as the patron saint of the stuffy, hidebound petite bourgeoisi…

  9. Young Girl Standing Against a Background of Wheat, Vincent Van Gogh

    Really love the colors used here, it blows my mind when I try to analyze or imagine how I could have come up with that on my own. I would like to understand his process or his system.

    I'm sort of tired from work so maybe tomorrow I won't think that this girl carries all that is good and true about humanity under her little sun hat. All the flowers probably appeared when she did, like she has that kind of effect on the natural world. 😁

  15. "Greek Girls on the Shore," Joaquin Sorolla, 1895.

    This was a pivotal work in the career of Sorolla (1863-1923), one of the most popular Spanish painters of his time. This came just as he was achieving fame. A large canvas, "The Return from Fishing," had just won top honors at the Paris Salon and had been purchased by the French government; it still hangs in the Musee D'Orsay.

    This is one of a series of murals he painted at a time when Neo-Hellenism was in vogue. The idealized, sentimental views of beautifully clad women in classical Greek costume, picking perfect, fully-in-bloom flowers, was a huge draw and the first of one of many private commissions.

    This was also one of the murals that led to the opportunity to paint his masterpiece, a series of murals called "A Vision of Spain," visible today at the Hispanic Society of America in New York.

    From a private collection.
