Golden October in paint: Plinio Nomellini's "At the Cascine, Florence" (c. 1889-90) turns a park meadow into ochre and rust dots, indigo thickets, sky blushing pink at the edges. Pointillist technique, autumn palette, done right. #art #Nomellini #Pointillism #AutumnPalette #meisterdrucke

Impressionist pointillist landscape painting titled 'At the Cascine, Florence' by Plinio Nomellini. A meadow in the foreground rendered in dabs of ochre, gold, and olive green leads back to a dense tree line in rust, brown, and deep indigo tones. Thin pale tree trunks are visible at right against the foliage. Above, the sky is rendered in flecked white and pink brushstrokes, brightening toward pink at the horizon on the right side.

Riviere's Sympathy, 1877: a white bull terrier leaning its head against a girl's shoulder while she stares off into space, chin in hand. Neither one needs words. For anyone whose dog reads their mood better than the people around them do. #art #VictorianArt #DogLovers #BritonRiviere #meisterdrucke

A young girl with light brown hair and blue eyes sits on a carpeted staircase landing, wearing a blue dress with dark velvet bodice, black stockings and black shoes. Her chin rests on her hand, elbow propped on her knee, and she gazes upward with a pensive expression. Beside her, a white bull terrier sits upright, leaning its head affectionately against her shoulder and gazing in the same direction. They sit together on a richly patterned Oriental rug draped over wooden stairs, with dark carved banisters to

Musée d'Orsay, second floor, the Impressionist rooms crowded with Monet's own series. Woman with a Parasol turned to the Right, 1886 hangs there, green parasol against a pale windswept sky, and everyone stops. #Monet #MuseeDOrsay #Impressionism #art #meisterdrucke

Oil painting by Claude Monet, 'Woman with a Parasol turned to the Right,' 1886. A woman stands on a grassy, wildflower-strewn hillside, her body turned toward the right of the canvas while she glances back over her shoulder. She wears a pale, flowing dress in soft ivory and lavender tones, its fabric rippling in the wind, along with a straw hat trimmed in blue.

Zorn's Fisherman at Saint Ives, 1891: dense, directional needle strokes build the sky and rooftops, with burnishing and a touch of plate tone left on the surface rather than wiped fully clean. A rougher, more immediate texture than academic etching typically favored. #art #AndersZorn #Etching #A...

Black and white etching by Anders Zorn showing two figures leaning on a stone wall, viewed from behind, looking out over the rooftops of Saint Ives toward the sea. A woman in a light polka-dot dress and a man in dark clothing and a cap stand close together at the wall's edge. A tall street lamp with a glowing globe rises on the right side of the composition. The sky and rooftops are rendered in dense, directional hatching typical of Zorn's etching technique, with visible plate tone giving the print a soft,

Everyone stares at the lute or the gold cup. Look right, into the shadow: a tasseled cord beside what looks like a hanging map. Jan Davidsz de Heem's Still Life, 1640 hides its quietest detail in the dark corner. #art #StillLife #DutchGoldenAge #ArtDetail #meisterdrucke

A richly detailed 17th-century Dutch still life by Jan Davidsz de Heem showing a blue-and-white porcelain bowl of grapes, peaches and citrus, a gold covered goblet and pitcher, wine glasses, oysters, nuts and a sliced pie on a white cloth, with a lute on the left, a metal wine cooler with bottles and vine leaves on the right, and in the shadowed background a stone archway with a hanging tasseled cord near a map or globe.
