In this portrait, every brushstroke reflects Archibald Motley’s love for his grandmother, Emily. Born into slavery, Emily lived through the Civil War and later in Chicago, where Motley painted her in 1922. Her resilience and beauty shine through in this intimate painting.

Goya rose from a rural village to become court painter to King Charles III, a time of optimism. But after the king’s death, Goya faced corrupt rulers and a mysterious illness that left him deaf. Disillusioned, his art grew darker—culminating in a biting satire of Spain’s elite.

Claude Monet’s "Woman with a Parasol (1875)" captures a fleeting moment—a breezy stroll with his wife Camille and their son Jean. The wind lifts her skirt, the sky swirls with motion. Painted in haste, full of love, it’s a memory he refused to let go.

Embroidery with significance🧵When in Arles (FR), Vincent painted a portrait of ‘The Zouave’, a soldier in a special French regiment. The embroidery on his jacket wasn't just decorative; it revealed his role as a musician within the regiment, likely playing the horn 🎺 or drum 🥁

The figures in Willem Andersson’s paintings turn introspectively inward, avoiding direct gaze. His works depict stylish public and private spaces—galleries, salons, and elegant lobbies. The humanoid figures, seen from behind, have hidden eyes and bodies draped in fabric.

Emerging from the post-punk shadows in the 1970s, Goth was a subculture defined by its dark fashion and haunting melodies. Siouxsie Sioux, the lead singer from Siouxsie and the Banshees, epitomises this with her daring style and distinctive voice. 📸 © by Pennie Smith, 1970s

Mariano Fortuny's 'Nude Old Man in the Sun,' (c1871) shows his interest in the art of Spain's Golden Age combined with his study of subjects made from life - it also reveals his admiration of the work of Jusepe de Ribera, particularly his painting of 'Saint Andrew.'
