The Dream - Henry Rousseau (1910)
Henri Rousseau's, The Dream is a beautiful, strange, and
enigmatic painting. It depicts the dream of Yadwigha, thought to be a Polish
woman with whom Rousseau had a relationship years before. Naked, she reclines
on a red couch. Her arm outstretched in a regal manor. She recalls the nude of
art history but she's clearly moving outside that tradition.Tony Hartwickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07296209927284033145noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6038025302120264499.post-60830891175314639432015-05-07T14:54:00.000+01:002015-05-07T14:54:01.273+01:00The Virgin of Melun... or the Lady of Beauty: Agnès Sorel
This painting is part of a diptych by Jean Fouquet (Tours 1425-1480), probably the best painter of his time in France, his artistic style positioned halfway between the Gothic tradition and the Italian Quattrocento after his travels to Italy between 1444 and 1447, where he met Fray Angelico and the young Piero della Francesca.

Cristo ante Caifas - Giotto di Bondone - 1306
And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man Tony Hartwickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07296209927284033145noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6038025302120264499.post-33472791578606917282015-03-28T19:20:00.000+00:002015-03-28T19:29:18.818+00:00Domingo de Ramos...Triumphal Entry
En principio, no tenía intención de añadir comentarios personales a mis posts de Semana Santa, pero no puedo resistir la tentación de subrayar cuan entrañable es para nosotros el Domingo de Ramos y la procesión de la Pollinica.
Cuando vivíamos en Arroyo de la Miel nunca nos perdimos el corto viaje a Málaga cada mañana de Ramos, con mis hijos, entonces pequeños, para ver la procesión;&Tony Hartwickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07296209927284033145noreply@blogger.com3
