Renoir had spent the previous summer painting outdoors with Claude Monet, who encouraged him to move toward a lighter, more luminous palette and to indulge his penchant for luscious, feathery brushwork. Here Renoir retained something of Gustave Courbet's green-and-brown palette while choosing his subject from the sensual, lighthearted garden jaunts of eighteenth-century painters such as Jean-Antoine Watteau and Jean-Honoré Fragonard, whose works he had studied in the Louvre. Unlike the images of seduction created by his predecessors, Renoir's is a fleeting moment caught by chance--middle-class Parisians immersed in nature, possibly a local park, not set before a studio backdrop. The dappled light filtering through the foliage would become a trademark of Renoir's finest Impressionist works of the 1870s and 1880s. He used a thin, oily paint mix, his glazes here floating into each other to create depth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- 11 x 14 Print\u003cbr\u003e- Item#: PR78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eLa Promenade\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841 - 1919)\u003cbr\u003e1870 \u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas\u003cbr\u003e81.3 × 64.8 cm (32 × 25 1\/2 in.)\u003cbr\u003eThe J.

They appear to be waiting, perhaps for an audition or its outcome. The two figures are a study in contrasts: The athletic dancer dressed in a dazzling costume reflects the glamour and artifice of the stage, while the shabbily dressed, bent figure represents the drabness of everyday life. Edgar Degas painted modern life; his subjects, including laundresses, milliners, nightclub singers, horse races, and the ballet, reflected contemporary Parisian occupations and diversions. From the 1860s onward, Degas frequented the Paris Opéra, where he made numerous studies of performances, rehearsals, and backstage scenes. Later, he would refine and combine these motifs in his studio, in exercises of daring technical skill and compelling psychological subtlety. Here he demonstrated his complete mastery of the pastel technique. Delicately blended strokes are combined with bold hatching and emphatic slashes; pink, blue, and creamy tones describe the dancer in contrast to the dark, severe form of the older woman. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- 11 x 14 Print\u003cbr\u003e- Item#: PR94\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWaiting\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEdgar Germain Hilaire Degas, French\u003cbr\u003eabout 1882\u003cbr\u003ePastel on paper \u003cbr\u003e19 x 24 in.\u003cbr\u003e83.GG.219\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GETTY TRUST PUBLICATIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":981295736,"sku":"PR94","price":5.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8502\/products\/PR94__1.jpg?v=1591905856"},{"product_id":"when-on-earth-1","title":"When on Earth?","description":"Teach history in a way that's fascinating to visual learners and children who are captivated by pictures and timelines. \u003cem\u003eWhen on Earth?\u003c\/em\u003e approaches history in a different way than most books, giving context that can put what children learn in school in a broader historical perspective.

Claude Monet wrote these words in a letter and vividly demonstrated them in paint, conveying a wondrous combination of permanence and mutability as the sun daily transformed the facade of Rouen Cathedral. Extending the building's encrusted stone surface to the richly varied impasto surface of his painting, he portrayed the cathedral perpetually re-emerging in the suffused light of early morning. Monet created several groups of paintings exploring the color, light, and form of a single subject at various times of day, but his Rouen Cathedral series was his most intense effort on a single site. He painted there in late winter in both 1892 and 1893, then reworked his thirty canvases from memory in the studio through 1894. He began this example in 1893, working in an improvised studio in the front room of a dressmaker's shop across from the cathedral. After creating a coherent ensemble, Monet selected twenty paintings that he considered 'complete' and 'perfect,' including this one, for an exhibition at his Paris dealer's gallery in May 1895. Pissarro and Cézanne visited and praised the series, and patrons quickly purchased eight paintings from the group. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Portal of Rouen Cathedral in Morning Light\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClaude Monet (French, 1840 - 1926) \u003cbr\u003e1894\u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas \u003cbr\u003e100.3 × 65.1 cm (39 1\/2 × 25 5\/8 in.)\u003cbr\u003eThe J.

She looks straight ahead, a picture of poise and detachment even as she seems fully aware of the viewer's admiring gaze. Representing aspiring Parisian actress Jeanne Demarsy as the embodiment of Spring, this portrait debuted at the last major public exhibition of Manet's life, the Paris Salon of 1882. For more than two decades, Manet's paintings were rejected by the Salon or met with controversy; Spring was the most unalloyed success of the artist's Salon career, a career that ended tragically a year later when Manet died of causes related to syphilis. Appealing to critics primarily on account of Jeanne's charm, \u003cem\u003eSpring\u003c\/em\u003e also showcased Manet's mastery of his medium. The painting exhibits a marvelous range of brushwork, from the thin, delicate floral touches on the dress to the smooth handling of Jeanne's face and the broad, sketch-like strokes of the backdrop. The painting's sensual handling and bright, vibrant palette evokes the pleasures of the season it celebrates. When composing \u003cem\u003eSpring\u003c\/em\u003e, Manet had in view both the latest fashion trends and old artistic traditions. An avid connoisseur of feminine couture, he pieced together Jeanne's ensemble himself by scouring dressmakers' and milliners' shops. Posing his model in the studio, however, he referred to portrait conventions of the early Italian Renaissance, presenting her half-length, in profile, and against a mass of greenery. More than just an ephemeral 'fashion-plate,' Manet's archetypal \u003cem\u003eSpring\u003c\/em\u003e was conceived as a picture for the ages, summarizing his modern epoch through the figure of a beautiful Parisienne. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eJeanne (Spring)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eÉdouard Manet (French, 1832 - 1883) \u003cbr\u003e1881\u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas \u003cbr\u003e74 × 51.5 cm (29 1\/8 × 20 1\/4 in.) \u003cbr\u003eThe J.

With this small gesture, Khnopff captured the child's vulnerability and uncertainty in facing the outside world. To further evoke a child's perception of a world scaled for grown-ups, he framed Jeanne Kéfer's tiny body against the adult-sized door and tilted the floor ever so slightly. Jeanne is further isolated by the free, abstract brushwork in the reflective door window behind her. Typical for Khnopff, Jeanne is not warm and inviting but cut off in the shallow background, a fixed haunting gaze on her face. Khnopff became a popular society portrait painter in the 1880s, using elements that served him well as an avant-garde Symbolist painter: visual realism and a mood of silence, isolation, and reverie. He frequently posed his models leaning against a closed door, flattening the space and resulting in a meditative, hermetically sealed image. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eJeanne Kéfer\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFernand Khnopff (Belgian, 1858 - 1921) \u003cbr\u003e1885\u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas\u003cbr\u003e80 × 80 cm (31 1\/2 × 31 1\/2 in.) \u003cbr\u003eThe J.

Although the castle and much of the clothing would have been familiar to medieval viewers, the artist also incorporated exotic references that would have captured the imagination of the audience, such as the camel to the far right and the alluring turbans and scimitars of the members of the Egyptian court. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n","brand":"DAVID HOWELL \u0026 COMPANY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":26283650121,"sku":"BKS6503","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8502\/products\/BKS6503.jpg?v=1593142787"},{"product_id":"damselfly-snail-bookmark","title":"Damselfly \u0026 Snail Bookmark","description":"Fanciful bookmark of Medieval flora and fauna of a damselfly and snail hidden among blue lilies.

The man's receding hairline, wrinkles, and sagging jawline contrast with tensed cheek and neck muscles. Although the character seems to express irritation and annoyance, it is not certain whether Messerschmidt intended that interpretation, because he did not give the bust a title. This bust and the series it belongs to reflect the intellectual concerns of artists and scholars during the Enlightenment era, when a surge of interest in the sciences occurred. Studies in physiognomy were highly popular at the time. Perhaps as influential was Messerschmidt's undiagnosed mental condition, which could have been schizophrenia.

The brilliant orange of the rising sun glimmers amid the damp air and dances on the gentle rippling water, lighting up its iridescent blues and greens. Barely discernible through a cool haze, pack boats on the left billow smoke from their stacks. Painted during the spring of 1873 as the country struggled to rebuild following the Franco-Prussian war, this Sunrise might also metaphorically suggest a new day dawning in France. Sunrise exemplifies Monet's plein air , or outdoor, approach to painting. The informal and spontaneous brushstrokes establish this picture as one of the first works, along with the famous Impression: Sunrise at the Marmottan Museum in Paris, in the Impressionist style that was to make him famous.

By the following summer he had painted them at least thirty times, at different times throughout the seasons. Wheatstacks was Monet's first series and the first in which he concentrated on a single subject, differentiating pictures only by color, touch, composition, and lighting and weather conditions. He said, 'For me a landscape hardly exists at all as a landscape, because its appearance is constantly changing; but it lives by virtue of its surroundings, the air and the light which vary continually.' After beginning outdoors, Monet reworked each painting in his studio to create the color harmonies that unify each canvas. The pinks in the sky echo the snow's reflections, and the blues of the wheatstacks' shadows are found in the wintry light shining on the stacks, in the houses' roofs, and in the snowy earth. With raised, broken brushstrokes, Monet captured nuances of light and created a solid, geometric structure that prevents the surface from simply melting into blobs. The wheatstacks are solid forms, and, while the outlying houses are indecipherable close-up, they are clear from a distance. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClaude Monet \u003cspan\u003e(French, 1840 - 1926)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWheatstacks, Snow Effect, Morning\u003c\/em\u003e, Giverny, 1891 \u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas, 25 1\/2\" x 39 1\/4\" \u003cbr\u003e95.PA.63 \u003cbr\u003eThe J.

She looks straight ahead, a picture of poise and detachment even as she seems fully aware of the viewer's admiring gaze. Representing aspiring Parisian actress Jeanne Demarsy as the embodiment of Spring, this portrait debuted at the last major public exhibition of Manet's life, the Paris Salon of 1882. For more than two decades, Manet's paintings were rejected by the Salon or met with controversy; Spring was the most unalloyed success of the artist's Salon career, a career that ended tragically a year later when Manet died of causes related to syphilis.

The flowers' nearly overripe quality attests both to nature's bounty and its transience. The bouquet is ordered in a loose pyramidal shape, with flowers and greenery almost bursting to be free of the vase. Butterflies and other insects fly or crawl amongst the arrangement, and drops of water are visible on leafs and shiny petals. Van Huysum painstakingly applied layer upon layer of thin oil glazes to capture the brilliant colors and delicate textures of the blossoms. Because each flower could only be painted while in season, it sometimes took the artist several years to complete a single painting. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJan van Huysum (Dutch, 1682 - 1749) \u003cbr\u003eVase of Flowers, 1722\u003cbr\u003eOil on panel 80.3 × 61 cm (31 5\/8\" × 24\") \u003cbr\u003e78.PA.67 \u003cbr\u003eThe J.

Renoir had spent the previous summer painting outdoors with Claude Monet, who encouraged him to move toward a lighter, more luminous palette and to indulge his penchant for luscious, feathery brushwork. Here Renoir retained something of Gustave Courbet's green-and-brown palette while choosing his subject from the sensual, lighthearted garden jaunts of eighteenth-century painters such as Jean-Antoine Watteau and Jean-Honoré Fragonard, whose works he had studied in the Louvre. Unlike the images of seduction created by his predecessors, Renoir's is a fleeting moment caught by chance--middle-class Parisians immersed in nature, possibly a local park, not set before a studio backdrop. The dappled light filtering through the foliage would become a trademark of Renoir's finest Impressionist works of the 1870s and 1880s. He used a thin, oily paint mix, his glazes here floating into each other to create depth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841 - 1919) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eLa Promenade\u003c\/em\u003e, 1870\u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas \u003cbr\u003e81.3 × 64.8 cm (32 × 25 1\/2 in.) \u003cbr\u003eThe J.

Visitors to the Paris exhibitions of the 1870s and 1880s loved Adolphe Bougereau's paintings. The Getty Museum's painting repeats a larger composition that Bougereau made for the Paris Salon in 1880; a viewer probably saw the larger version there and requested a smaller one for private viewing.

With this small gesture, Khnopff captured the child's vulnerability and uncertainty in facing the outside world. To further evoke a child's perception of a world scaled for grown-ups, he framed Jeanne Kéfer's tiny body against the adult-sized door and tilted the floor ever so slightly. Jeanne is further isolated by the free, abstract brushwork in the reflective door window behind her. Typical for Khnopff, Jeanne is not warm and inviting but cut off in the shallow background, a fixed haunting gaze on her face. Khnopff became a popular society portrait painter in the 1880s, using elements that served him well as an avant-garde Symbolist painter: visual realism and a mood of silence, isolation, and reverie. He frequently posed his models leaning against a closed door, flattening the space and resulting in a meditative, hermetically sealed image. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFernand Khnopff (Belgian, 1858 - 1921) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eJeanne Kéfer\u003c\/em\u003e, 1885\u003cbr\u003eOil on canvas \u003cbr\u003e80 × 80 cm (31 1\/2 × 31 1\/2 in.) \u003cbr\u003eThe J.

Unlike the darkness one would expect to find in a forest, Hans Hoffmann painted a theatrically illuminated scene. Each plant and insect--snail, cricket, beetle--is seen in vivid detail. The finely wrought leaves of the thistle, the sprawling fronds of a plantain, and the bright blue flowers of the Hare Bell attest to Hoffmann's meticulous treatment of the subject. In fact, none of these plants could have coexisted in the natural world. Hoffmann imaginatively combined numerous individual nature studies in a single painting. Hoffmann's golden-brown hare is based on Albrecht Dürer's famous and influential watercolor which, much like his Stag Beetle, shows a hare against a plain ground. Hoffmann had seen Dürer's hare while in Nuremburg. Later, when he went to work in the court of Emperor Rudolf II, he helped the Emperor acquire the watercolor for his Kunstkammer. Hoffmann's hare differs from Dürer's, however, appearing amid a striking arrangement of elegant plants and insects. At the time it was painted, this arrangement of nearly life-size subjects was entirely unique, not only within Hoffmann's body of work, but also within the tradition of German nature study. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHans Hoffmann (German, about 1530 - 1591\/1592) \u003cbr\u003eA Hare in the Forest, about 1855\u003cbr\u003eOil on panel \u003cbr\u003e62.2 × 78.4 cm (24 1\/2 × 30 7\/8 in.) \u003cbr\u003eThe J.
