Catching up on the amazing podcast “Adventures in Art” with @bendorgrosvenor.bsky.social and @januszczak.bsky.social and what a treat to discover all the secrets behind #theAmbassadors by #HansHolbein Tune in!

Whilst Gustav #klimt is famed for his decadent #goldenphase era, he is equally renowned for his under-stated, tranquil landscapes. ‘Litzlberg am Attersee’ (1915) is a perfect example, on display at the #leopoldmuseum #Vienna #Austria #ArtNouveau #ModernArt #historyofArt #landscapeArt

#CarlGustafTessin” (1740) by #FrancoisBoucher, epitomizes the #Rococo art movement, noted for its ornamental and decorative qualities. The intricate rendering of textures, from the shimmering fabric of Tessin’s robe to the delicate lace of his cuffs, his wig with curls @natmus-sweden.bsky.social

The ‘Taking of #Christ’ (1602) by #baroque artist #Caravaggio The moment when Christ is betrayed by Judas the cloak of fleeing apostle (St John) perfectly encapsulates this moment The soldiers polished metal arm serves as a mirror of self-reflection and examination of conscience #artoftheday

Details from Venus, Mars and the Forge of Vulcan - #LucaGiordano c.1660 A story which became popular in art sees Venus,goddess of love,married to Vulcan,the god of fire, which was often seen as mismatched. However, Venus has a torrid affair with Mars, the god of war. #nationalgalleryofIreland

'An Interview between Charles I and Oliver Cromwell' (1836) by Cork born Daniel Maclise on display in the National Gallery of Ireland - note the contrast in the clothing between the two men - Charles’ elegant finery against Cromwell’s rugged armour #Arthistory #IrishArt #Artoftheday #Dublin
