Earth without art is just eh
Art is an inseparable part of the world. I can not even imagine how we could live without literature, music, cinematography. Art represent not only the cultural heritage of civilization but also a humanity progress and improvement. Art help us to develop our minds, it let us think and let us dream.
Today I would like to show you some of my favourite paintings. I'm not an expert of painting, but I like to visit museum and galleries. I admire every exibition which I have a chance to see. When I travel and I visit new places I always pick one or more art galeries or museums and I visi them. It's a part of all journeys.
Francesco Hayez - The kiss, 1859
I saw this painting in Pinacoteca di Brera, Milano, during my Erasmus exchange, three years ago. I'd like the way they shows pasison in this painting, it seems like a goodbye kiss, the last and most important kiss.
Francois Boucher -The Baby Jesus and the Infant Saint John, 1758
I took the picture if this painting in Uffizi Gallery in Florence. I'm not a big fan of sacred art and most of the times the paintingd with Jesus are similiar and boring, but I loved this one immediately. The figures are so sweet, I could watch it for hours!
Caravaggio - Judith beheading Holofernes, 1598-1599
It is situated in the National Gallery d'Arte Antica in Rome. I havn't seen this ine yet but I'm planning a trip to Rome this spring so this is gonna by on my list. I love Caravaggio for the dark background of his paintingd and the amazing expresisons on the faces of the figures.
Picasso - Jacqouline with flowers, 1954
Deep colours and the profile of this charming women always make me smile. I found this painting on the internet and I could't stop to look at it. I even put it on my phone wallpaper.
Renè Magritte - The Lovers, 1928
What I like in this paintings is the mistery, the faces are covered and this is unsusual. When I think of this painting I think of the power of love. That nothing teally matters when two people are in love not even the faces.
William Adolphe Bouguereau - Elegy, 1899
I like the simplicity of this painting and this pale colours. They are in perfect harmony with the girls sad face. The painting is peaceful and quite.
Those paintings are impressive. And I agree with the title :)
