'Ida in an Interior.' (1897) Amongst his contemporaries, Vilhelm Hammershøi most clearly absorbed aspects of the style of Whistler; both artists worked in muted monochomatic tones, resulting in a style in which mood dominates subject.

Teken voor een motie van wantrouwen tegen minister Faber
De ondertekenaars van deze petitie laten zien dat het Nederlandse volk klaar is met een minister die de hand boven het hoofd gehouden wordt om de coalitie bij elkaar te houden. Dit terwijl de minister...

The Good Friday Agreement was signed 27 years ago today. It was an act of delicate diplomacy, which delivered peace and security to a part of our country where those qualities had long been absent. Those achievements should never be taken for granted.

Egon Schiele painted this portrait of the artist Hans Massman in 1909, the year of his great breakthrough to artistic maturity. Although still only 19, his talent was recognised by Gustav Klimt and many others who saw him as one of the great hopes for the future of Austrian art.

This view of the harbour at St Ives in Cornwall (c1890) was painted by William Osborn and shows local people catching sardines in drift nets. Osborn was often near poverty and frequently exchanged paintings for food and lodgings, bartering works to earn a living.

in an alternate universe
the Lava Beds faded of most of it's color. Grasses cover the land with bare trees scattered throughout. One larger tree is on the right. In the background are more small trees and there is a mountain on the right.

Grace Cowley's portrait from 1929 follows André Lhote's modified version of Cubism - that awkward hand gesture, though. A sign from the sitter to the outside world, perhaps?

In het jaar 2025 na Christus verenigt heel Europa zich voor herbewapening van het continent... Heel Europa? Nee! Een klein land, bewoond door onverstaanbare Hollanders, vindt het te duur om weerstand te bieden aan de Russische agressors.

Sorry collega's, maar dit is weer een fuckedup frame.
Alsof het niet-aangeboden excuus de oorzaak van de niet-doorgegane deal is. Alsof Zelensky fout zat. Alsof de hele vernederingspoging geen Amerikaanse opzet was. 'Felle discussie' - houd toch op. Wordt wakker.

Hendrik Mesdag's sunset (1887) looks simple: sea and the sky, which a low horizon divides into unequal parts, a few sails in the distance, on the left, enliven the rather severe construction. But look at the multiplicity of tones and the complexity of this work sinks in.

Although best known for his seascapes on the shores of Valencia, small paintings (apuntes) of his house and garden play an integral role in Sorolla's career and how he looked at the world. This work from around 1900, shows his wife Clotilde watering the garden.
Although best known for his seascapes on the shores of Valencia, small paintings (apuntes) of his house and garden play an integral role in Sorolla's career, how he looked at the world, how he understood the changing nature of light and colour, and how he could express a fully realised scene with a few brushstrokes. This work from around 1900, shows his wife Clotilde watering the garden.

Fairfield Porter's painting was sketched early on the morning of 25 December 1961: ' I remembered what Bonnard said Renoir told him: make everything more beautiful. This partly means that a painting should contain a mystery, but not for mystery's sake: a mystery that is essential to reality.'

Morning all. Photograph by Robert Frank. Wales, 1953. A black and white photograph that shows a group of primary school children stood in a street of terrace houses. I think the children are a choir as there’s what appears to be a Salvation Army trumpeter with them. Mountains loom large in the background.

Als je het mens-zijn zou willen vergelijken met een huis, dan doet het treurige en lachwekkende fenomeen zich bij de meeste mensen voor dat ze in hun eigen huis bij voorkeur in de kelder wonen.

Anti-Climacus (Kierkegaard), 1849
