'Venetian Passageway.' Like many of his contemporaries, John Singer Sargent was captivated by Venice and visited the city frequently between 1898 and 1913. There's a fluid spontaneity in this work, evident in the moving water of the canal.

Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

'Bridge of Sighs.' (1909) By the time of this painting, Jane Peterson was one of the foremost painters in New York. Her art education included studying in Madrid with Joaquin Sorolla who had a significant influence on her work, particularly in portraying water.

In the heart of Buddhist practice lies the aspiration to see the world as it truly is — free from delusion, distortion, and the habitual patterns of the unawakened mind.

Goodnight everyone.

Peter Ilsted's work (1908) is similar in style to the work of his brother in law Vilhelm Hammershøi. Together with Carl Holsøe, they were famous for their interiors and were leading members of the 'Free Exhibition,' a Danish progressive art society at the end of the 19thC.

'Battledore.' (1868) The title in Albert Moore's work alludes to the racket used in badminton, a game of ancient origin; the true subject of this painting is its exquisite technical assurance, its array of linear patterning, and its seductive colour harmonies.

Why Hannah Arendt left philosophy behind to face the world

Arendt thought 20th-century philosophy had become too passive and abstract. She called for “active thinking” that prepares us to live in the real world.

Among the huge number of copies and variants of Albrecht Dürer’s Hare of 1502 are those by Hans Hoffmann, Joris Hoefnagel and an unknown Munich artist. This is probably by the latter from the early 17thC.

'Interior.' (c1980) Peter Kelly's painting shows the fine classical draughtsmanship that characterises much of his work. His preference for a limited palette of muted tones occasionally warmed by brighter accents are reminiscent of the Dutch and Scandinavian Schools.

Graham Sutherland's picture is of limestone quarries at Buxton in Derbyshire he made as a war artist in WW2. His method was to make rapid drawings on the spot, work these up at home before a definitive version was handed over to the War Artist Advisory Committee.

When Gustave Caillebotte painted 'Boulevard from above,' (1880) life in Paris centered around the streets of the city, this led architects to create balconies where Parisians could watch pedestrians on the street and be watched by them as well; an observatory for the privileged.

'Port of Honfleur at Night.' (1901). Félix Vallotton spent his summers near the French port of Honfleur, painting a number scenes around the harbour but none better than this; he never varnished his work so the light and reflections are entirely through the application of paint.
