On Montmartre’s edge (1886–87), Van Gogh painted windmills, gardens, and stone quarries. These threshold spaces where city chaos met rural calm, mirrored his struggle to balance speed with structure.

Two of the Lewis Chessmen currently on display at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. Discovered in 1831 on a beach at Uig on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides, the chessmen date to the late 12th or early 13th century. 📸 My own. #FindsFriday #LewisChessmen

Was Eleanor Roosevelt the most influential woman on U.S. history? There would a far, far lesser FDR in history books without her 'influence.' Anyone topping her, on par?

A painting of seven nude female figures lounging around a small circular pool, perhaps a well. Two women on the left and right sides are standing and the others are sitting or lying down. A stone or cement square pillar is behind the figures on the left and trees are in the background on the right.

Hopper portrayed the “horror house” before Hollywood. House by the Railroad (1925) freezes a mansion in suspense—a lonely home becomes ominous, American suburbia turns into a nightmare. Years later, it inspired Hitchcock’s famous film Psycho.

Dalí’s imagery became bleaker as the threat of war loomed over Europe in the late-1930s. The Burning Giraffe (1937) sets its figures in a stage-like space, with crutches and exposed openings turning the bodies into objects that appear precarious and engineered.

A painting of four nude figures, two females and two males, on a beach. They are walking toward the left to enter the water. They all have tan lines (a.k.a. cottontails), so they must not be regular nudists. You can see a pentimento where the artist drew the figures in other positions.

Bare Tree behind a Fence, 1912 botfrens.com/collections/88/content…

This painting by Egon Schiele, 'Bare Tree behind a Fence,' captures the stark, expressive lines of a leafless tree against a textured, muted background, illustrating Schiele's characteristic exploration of isolation and desolation. The bold, contrasting brushstrokes highlight the ominous barrier of the fence, adding depth and tension to the barren landscape.
