The Official Art Thread * 5
    #24340038 - 05/22/17 08:41 AM (6 years, 10 months ago)

Alright everyone,

I figured that on the shroomery we are able to share some fantastic things with each other, on some awesome threads, but I was missing being able to share various art with my lovely peers.

Consequently, I have decided to create a thread where we can share and discuss pieces of art, sculptures, and different paintings with each other. I will be posting mainly classical art, but you may post from any era that you like.

So sit back relax, grab a glass of wine, maybe a little cheese, and enjoy the art!  :wineswim:

Here's what has caught my eye recently:


Witches' Sabbath (Francisco Goya, 1798)



The Alchemist Discovering Phosphorus (Joseph Wright of Derby, 1771)




The Matchmaker (Gerard van Honthorst, 1625)

Salvador Dalí in the Act of Painting Gala in the Apotheosis of the Dollar, Dalí, 1965


In this canvas, just as in his Theatre-Museum, Dalí reflects all the tendencies, myths and obsessions that accompanied him throughout his life. Let us recall some of them: Duchamp on the left-hand side dressed as Louis XIV with Watteau’s lute player over his head; José Nieto, the Queen’s quartermaster of Las Meninas, who appears as many as three times. Beside Duchamp-Louis XIV, the profile of Hermes by Praxiteles, who has the figure of Goethe in the shadow of its nose, and in the corner of its mouth, the portrait of Vermeer de Delft. On the right-hand side, Dalí paints himself, like Velásquez, in the act of painting Gala, at whose side appears the double image of Dante’s Beatriz, who is, at the same time, a kneeling Quixote. Above, we can see Napoleon’s defeated armies, while in the top left-hand corner we can make out the soldiers of the Battle of Tetuán in full force (reminiscences of Meissonier in some and of Fortuny in others).

Absolutely gorgeous, I love Dalí.

I often times like these studies more than the more finished and refined works.

These are by Ivan Shishkin
