Hotspur🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦"Basket of Roses," Henri Biva, 1891.Biva (1848-1929) was a Realist/Naturalist painter of landscapes and the occasional still life. His work is recognizable for a degree of realism and attention to detail that prefigures the photorealism that would rise in the late 20th century.I once showed one of his landscapes to a friend, who gazed at it for ages, then said, "You can almost HEAR that painting," as in it was easy to imagine the calls of birds and buzzing of insects. It was as if one could step through the frame into a lovely, but realistic, scene.His attention to detail, his skill as a colorist, and his ability to depict natural light and make it LOOK natural on the canvas, are remarkable to me. He is scandalously overlooked and deserves greater attention....a lot of his work may not look like much at a glance (views of meadows or wooded glades or the shore of a pond or creek) but reward your attention with their amazing detail and realism. Go look him up.Happy Flower Friday!From a private collection.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Art</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Naturalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Naturalism</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AcademicArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicArt</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/HenriBiva" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HenriBiva</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/FlowerFriday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FlowerFriday</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Realism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Realism</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Roses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Roses</a>

Hotspur🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦"Ask Me No More," Lawrence Alma-Tadema, 1906.Dutch-born, British by choice, Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) was a specialist in sun-drenched scenes from Greek and Roman myth and history...here we have a scene from the story of Pyramus and Thisbe, fotbidden lovers who inspired Romeo and Juliet...and whose story was treated in burlesque fashion in Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream."Alma-Tadema's work was extremely popular in his time; he was prized for his mythical themes and for his solid draftsmanship. However, he fell from favor after the Victorian age ended, but regained popularity in the late 20th century.He remained solidly in the category of Academic art, never falling in with the Pre-Raphaelites, Impressionists, or what have you, although he was an influence on the Symbolists. He was meticulous with detail, especially with architecture, and sought to paint it as accurately as possible.From a private collection.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Art</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/BritishArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BritishArt</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AcademicArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicArt</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/LawrenceAlmaTadema" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LawrenceAlmaTadema</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/PyramusAndThisbe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PyramusAndThisbe</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GreekMyth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GreekMyth</a>
