Paul Klee's 'Magdalena Before The Conversion' (1938) is a masterclass in late modernist symbolism. 🎨 Created during exile from Nazi Germany whilst battling scleroderma, Klee transformed personal suffering into vibrant visual poetry. πŸ–ΌοΈ #ArtHistory #FineArt

19th century Japanese painting by Shibata Zeshin showing a monkey wrapped in red and yellow patterned silk robes examining a small decorative object through a magnifying glass, surrounded by collector's items including a lacquered book, measuring sticks, an inrō case and netsuke toggle against a golden yellow silk background, ink and colour on silk circa 1835

Meet the original art world satirist. 🐡 Shibata Zeshin's 1835 masterpiece "Monkey Posing as a Collector" shows a fashionably draped monkey scrutinising collectibles with a magnifying glass, a cheeky 19th-century commentary on connoisseurship that still resonates today. 🎨 #ArtHistory #FineArt

Utagawa Kuniyoshi ukiyo-e woodblock print from circa 1830 depicting Fujinoe, a female warrior in elaborate blue and yellow patterned kimono with coral accents, wielding both a sword and naginata whilst dynamically deflecting multiple arrows in mid-flight. Her long black hair flows dramatically as she battles two armoured samurai warriors below her. The composition features bold diagonal lines, vibrant traditional Japanese colours, and Japanese text columns in the upper right. Part of Kuniyoshi's "Eight Hundred Heroes of Our Country's Suikoden" series, showcasing Edo-period artistry and progressive female representation.

Before manga, there was Kuniyoshi. βš”οΈ This stunning 1830 ukiyo-e print depicts Fujinoeβ€”a legendary female warrior defending Takadachi Castle in 1189. Kuniyoshi was ahead of his time, repeatedly portraying strong, complex women with agency & martial prowess. πŸ’ͺ🎨 #FineArt #ArtHistory

Hokusai's Kajikazawa in Kai Province woodblock print showing a fisherman in traditional dress casting multiple fishing lines from a green rocky promontory into dramatic blue waves of the Fuji River, with Mount Fuji's iconic triangular silhouette rising peacefully in the background under a pale sky, demonstrating the master's use of Prussian blue pigment and bokashi gradation technique

🌊 Hokusai's "Kajikazawa in Kai Province" remains one of art history's most captivating masterpieces. The fisherman's curved pose deliberately mirrors the rolling waves and rocky contours, creating visual harmony that influenced countless Impressionist masters decades later. πŸ–ΌοΈ #FineArt #ArtHistory

Claude Monet's oil painting "The Green Wave" showing dramatic emerald-green ocean waves with white foam crashing around a tilted fishing boat with grey sails, painted in bold brushstrokes characteristic of early Impressionist technique, circa 1866-67

🌊 Monet's "The Green Wave" (c. 1866-67) captures the raw power of the Normandy coast with revolutionary technique. This early masterpiece bridges Romantic drama with emerging Impressionism. 🎨 Critics noted strong Manet influences in its bold composition and high horizon line. #ArtHistory #FineArt

Photos of Blaire the fluffy colorpoint cat loafing on top of a wooden table, there is a 'Flow' jigsaw puzzle in progress under her. She does not seem to care much though. She's studying her mom's braincell performance. The tweet is a reference to a tweet from about 2 days prior. Blaire seems quite bored. The caption says 'The assessment continues. We are at almost 72h and still, only about half the jigsaw puzzle is complete.'

Friends! Mum has had to give up on the Jigsaw for now, because Percy has become an absolute Puzzle Monster 🧩 and if the Puzzle is out, he INSISTS on being INVOLVED. As Percy approaches his 1st birthday we see has evolved from Adventurer to Softy Snuggler! He’s a soppy-soft as a bag of marshmallows!
