Leonardo da Vinci (1452ā1519) is one of the most intriguing personalities in the history of Western art. Trained in Florence as a painter and sculptor in the workshop of Andrea del Verrocchio (1435ā1488), Leonardo is also celebrated for his scientific contributions. His curiosity and insatiable hunger for knowledge never left him. He was constantly observing, experimenting, and inventing, and drawing was, for him, a tool for recording his investigation of nature. Although completed works by Leonardo are few, he left a large body of drawings (almost 2,500) that record his ideas, most still gathered into notebooks. He was principally active in Florence (1472āca. 1482, 1500ā1508) and Milan (ca. 1482ā99, 1508ā13), but spent the last years of his life in Rome (1513ā16) and France (1516/17ā1519), where he died. His genius as an artist and inventor continues to inspire artists and scientists alike centuries after his death .
Pontormo detail of Annunciation between, 1527 and 1528. Iām enchanted by the red surrounded by warm and cool grays. I love his broken color. And the pose is so beseeching and tender. I notice Pontormoās faces are very similar, especially the eyes. They are so soulful. This is in the Capponi Chapel and is a fresco. #pontormo #masterpainter #masterpainting #mannerism #fresco #annunciation (at Capponi Chapel) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf8JvdJL1tj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Birthday, Raphael!
Master painter and architect Raphael was born on this day in 1483 in Urbino, Italy. Best known for his Madonnas and his large figure compositions in the Vatican, Raphael's work is admired for its clarity of form and ease of composition.ā
ā The young man peering out at us from this drawing is actually thought to be Raphael himself c. 1500-1501, when he would have been around 18 years old. In this drawing, he used black chalk skilfully and finely to model the head, conveying a sense of form and catching the light on the subject's skin. On close observation, there is evidence of revision in the size of the hat and the length of the neck. Raphael drew and redrew the contour lines of his face and neck, darkening stokes with stronger pressure on the chalk as he gained confidence in the realisation of the image.ā

CHARLES VERLAT
Ā On this day of 24th day of November, Charles VerlatĀ orĀ Karel VerlatĀ (24 November 1824Ā ā 23 October 1890) was born in Antwerp, Netherlands. Some sources claim that his date of birth was 25th November.
He was a painter, watercolorist, engraver,Ā art educator,Ā and director of theĀ Antwerp Academy. He painted many subjects and was particularly known as anĀ animalierĀ and portrait painter.Ā He also createdĀ OrientalistĀ works,Ā genreĀ scenes, including a number ofĀ antics, religious compositions, and still lifes.
He was a professor of drawing and director of theĀ Antwerp AcademyĀ whenĀ Vincent van GoghĀ spent a brief period as a student at the Academy in 1886. The two men got into arguments about van Gogh's unconventional style of drawing.
Charles got his first drawing classes fromĀ Johannes Antonius van der Ven. Then took lessons fromĀ Nicaise de Keyser. De Keyser was one of the key figures in the BelgianĀ Romantic-historical school of painting. Pupils of de Keyser who came to prominence wereĀ Edouard Hamman,Ā Jan Swerts,Ā Joseph Lies,Ā andĀ Johan Bernard Wittkamp.
His first picture to be exhibited wasĀ Pippin the ShortĀ Killing a Lion. He also gradually started to paint animal scenes as well as genre scenes. He painted his first religious composition which was intended for the St Gummarus church inĀ Lier.
He left forĀ ParisĀ and studied in the studio of Ary Scheffer. And later fromĀ Jean-Hippolyte Flandrin.
He gained commissions from religious and official institutions in Belgium including historical compositionĀ Godefroid de Bouillon during the assault on Jerusalem. In 1855 he won a gold medal at theĀ Exposition UniverselleĀ at Paris with hisĀ Tiger Attacking a Herd of Buffaloes.
He gradually came under the influence of theĀ RealismĀ ofĀ Gustave Courbet. This resulted in his workĀ Coup de collier. The work was negatively criticised. Verlat took revenge by painting a monkey shaving itself while wiping its feet on the copy of the newspaper in which the criticism had been published.
He also started to establish a reputation as an animal painter. He also painted religious subjects and hisĀ PietĆ Ā was so successful that it earned him the distinction of being appointed a Knight in the FrenchĀ Legion of Honour
His major creations during his visits to the Middle East wereĀ Vox populi,Ā Vox Dei,Ā The Tomb of Christ,Ā andĀ The Flight into Egypt
Verlat also created a few panoramic paintings. TheĀ Battle of WaterlooĀ was 120 meters wide and 10 meters high.
