The Art of Painting. 🖼️ Johannes Vermeer. 🎨 Kunsthistorisches Museum. Vienna, Austria. 1666-1668. #painting #art #arthistory #WeekBforBehind #AlphabetChallenge #Baroquepainting #DutchGoldenAge

The Art of Painting. Johannes Vermeer. 1666-1668. Kunsthistorisches Museum. Vienna, Austria. The Dutch Golden Age painter’s allegory of painting shows a young woman holding a musical instrument as she is brightened by light from a window. The integrated composition depicts a tapestry on the wall, a curtain drawn in the foreground to show the view, and the painter (Vermeer?) with his back to us.

For reasons still unknown to me, I felt like channeling #RachelRuysch in the deepest darkest days of the pandemic... #Oilpainting on ACM. This is "Stop & Smell The Flowers". (2020) #Januarty #FineArt #DutchGoldenAge #Art #BlueSkyArt #FloralStillLife

Still life oil painting by artist Lorn Curry showing a large bouquet of flowers in a glass vase on a striped tablecloth with a surgical mask. A large green triangle frames the black background.

Lezende oude vrouw (Old Woman Reading) by Jan Lievens (Dutch) - Oil on panel / c. 1624-1625 - Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam, Netherlands) #WomenInArt #ArtText #art #portraitofawoman #DutchArtist #JanLievens #Lievens #Rijksmuseum #DutchArt #OilPainting #Reading #womensart #portrait #DutchGoldenAge #OldWoman

This unsigned and undated painting of an old woman -- with thin, pinched lips and small, hooked nose -- was already recognized as a work by Jan Lievens when it was first published in 1936. In his early years in Leiden, Lievens produced several monumental half-length, single-figure compositions derived from the example of the Utrecht Caravaggisti.

A possible inspiration may have been Abraham Bloemaert’s Old Woman with a Rosary Praying. Like the aged women by Honthorst and Bloemaert, Lievens’s one wears a simple, unadorned overgarment. While it has been claimed that its striking lilac color betrays the influence of Lievens’s documented teacher, Pieter Lastman, a more likely source of inspiration was another Dutch Caravaggio follower, Hendrick ter Brugghen, who used it in compositions with large-scale figures. The striped headscarf, a Middle Eastern costume element, worn by Lievens’s model may have been borrowed from Honthorst’s depictions of elderly women.

Lievens’s broad handling of paint is unlike that of his Utrecht models, but nevertheless typical of his early production. The striated highlights forming the wrinkles of the woman’s face and right hand, in particular, are indicative of Lievens’s manner in this period.

There are also areas in which the paint functions mimetically. The ridges of the headscarf and the edges of the pages of the large book have been created with considerable impasto, rendering them three-dimensional. The impasto is at its thickest, however, at the bottom left in the scarf’s fringe. It is especially here that the paint imitates the structure of the object it describes.

Lievens’ posthumous reputation has never risen to a level commensurate with that during his lifetime or with the quality of his individual works. This is likely due to his wide range of locations and styles styles in which he worked, and because many of his best paintings have been wrongly attributed to other artists, including Rembrandt.

Still Life of Exotic Flowers on a Marble Ledge by Rachel Ruysch, c. 1735, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art (Kansas City, MO) #ArtHistory #Baroque #DutchGoldenAge More in alt text

Floral still-life painting featuring a dense and highly colored arrangement of exotic flowers in a stoneware vase on a marble balustrade. A tall, trumpet-shaped white blossom extends from center upwards toward the right accentuating the diagonal slant of the bouquet's principal axis. Adjacent to this is a flame lily with its twisted scarlet petals. Other flowers in the composition include a pink and white oleander at center left, a vibrant cluster of coral honeysuckle at lower left, and a prickly pear cactus, at center bottom rests on the ledge. A pale yellow butterfly hovers next to a star-shaped carrion flower at the lower left. The arrangement is set against a neutral gray background,
which offers a glimpse of a garden with a classicizing statue at right.

The Threatened Swan by Jan Asselijn, c. 1650, Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam, Netherlands) #ArtHistory #Baroque #DutchGoldenAge

A swan fiercely defends its nest against a dog. In later centuries, this scuffle was interpreted as a political allegory: the white swan was thought to symbolize the Dutch statesman Johan de Witt (assassinated in 1672) protecting the country from its enemies. This was the meaning attached to the painting when it became the very first acquisition to enter the Nationale Kunstgalerij (the forerunner of the Rijksmuseum) in 1880.
