Love the detail on the Charles Mertens painting - simply exquisite!
Very cool that it's 1890 right after the briar pipe came into vogue, it appears to be a silver-banded briar to me, in such a classic shape.
He does great hands too.
Picasso never fails to flip my wig,
his rep is well-earned.
The Christian Heuser painting is haunting,
and seemingly alive with a soul.
Would love to see it in the flesh - it's so luminous.
Bartolomeus Molenaer scores major points for the peasants pipe hat, he must've seen someone carrying their clay like that I'm sure --- I think it's way cool!
The Newell Convers Wyeth self-portrait looks like George Costanza!
Henry Scott Tuke - a seadog to perfection.
Ivan Pokhitonov - again, major respect for your keen eye!
I would have never noticed it.
This thread has been a true blessing!
Robert Lenkiewicz - one of my faves on the thread.
I love expressionist stuff and with a Diogenes reference it seals the deal!
Camille Bombois - the clown is creepy on many levels.
A shivering shoggoth!
Love the quick minimalist brushwork of Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell, as well as the cheeky title.
Josef Herma exudes emotion in that wash of grey, an expressionless expression, quickly sketched, but capturing that moment, thought and solitude, here and gone, tomorrow never knows.
John George Brown is extremely interesting. From Newcastle but transplanted to NYC.The chosen painting seems to perfectly capture that resolute and standfast character I associate with the British.
A wonderful picture.
Louis Anquetin makes me wanna drink absinthe and watch Paris In Midnight again.
Paul Jacuolet - I could live with Hokkan-Zen everyday and it would definitely enhance my overall well-being, something about it calms my nerves and gives quiet pause, it is a fullsome picture.
Darby & Joan is charming.
O!
The days we were young.
Jose Navarro y Llorens is a master of the mood,
I can hear the gentle waves lapping,
slow.
1927 clothes ads, my fave commercial art period, late 20's early 30's, total quality and lots of opaque gouache, clean lines, and full of style.
Martin Johan Tengberg - damn, those big hands remind me of an old Russian seadog I worked with in Alaska, so does the slightly mischevious expression,
I can feel his warm spirit coming out of the frame.
Keep 'em comin my good man!
This is a most marvelous thread and viewing it as it evolves is a pure pleasure.

^ My eighteenth year was the last year of the draft, which means the majority of US males came of age without it. To me, this has created the greatest change in our culture, beyond any technological advances. Most of this forum probably remembers what it was like and how different growing up was with the possibility ( and in some cases, probability) of being thrown into battle. I think the recruit's face in the above says it all.
