p.i.g.m.e.n.t.i.u.m: January 2007

If you are a lover of printed words, you would know how much of your time is taken by books alone. Then one day, sooner or later, you discover a huge vacuum within that you know next to nothing about other art forms. This blog is an attempt to fulfil one such lacunae in the art of painting. We intend to look up a random painting and upload it with a link here every day whilst having our daily cuppa coffee. In this way at least we hope to be better acquainted with colours, colourers and the schools than what we are now.If you wish to be a part, you know where to shout.

Before A Mirror

Before A Mirror, Robert Barrett Browning, Again cant find an important link. I gather Mr Browning(1846-1912) was the son of the famous Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

11:00???

11:00???, Edward Hopper

Have madly fallen in love with Hopper, If Vermeer painted the particle of light, Hopper painted the wave. He makes my heart swell into supreme lightness and fly away in joy.

PS- pardon the juvenile enthusiasm.

Venice...

Venice, Jeno Koszkol

NB:Badly wanted a Venice with a gondola on the list. And a search ended up in the above choice. I like the perspective. I couldnt find much about the painter except that he was an Hungarian. Even the hard copy of the Oxford dictionary of art doesnt mention him. If you find anything , kindly share.
