 Considered by many as one of the most famous American painter of the 19th century. Homer was the embodiment of an all round artist, producing renowned works through watercolour and oils. He was also talented in printmaking, wood carvings and depicted several poignant scenes from America’s Civil War period 

    ‘Winslow Homer - Burnt Sienna' provides full colored images for you to explore and frankly afford you with the opportunity to immerse yourself with this largely self-taught American artist. Homer’s body of artistic work is so large, that it is helpful to categorize it someway, so that a single publication has a chance of presenting the scope of a subset of his paintings 

Burnt Sienna as a color has been used for years. The origin of sienna is from nature and in this case, a color similar to what could be found in soil compositions. This volume, then, highlights paintings, oil or watercolors, which are predominantly earth tones, hues or colors. 

The subjects range from his maritime expertise with seascapes, to landscapes that surrounded him, as he moved about the globe. Home’s also focus on people, in many cases, recording a visual representation of one of their varied daily tasks.

Vol 20 By the Sea - Caspar David Friedrich
Custom print in terms of other Standard Print sizes or languages are available for ordering via website.
 
  Caspar David Friedrich (5 September 1774 – 7 May 1840) was a 19th-century German Romantic landscape painter. Considered the most important German artist of his generation. Caspar was taught early in his artist education to sketch outdoor and became known for his representations of allegorical landscapes and the small space occupied by silhouetted humans in these scenes.

    Modern psychiatry would have a field day completing analysis of individual works as driven by his temperament and early tragic events. Personally I find his work, in most cases awe-inspiring and tend to overlook the obvious links of color and subjects to his past

   Caspar David Friedrich died after painting a long legacy of works. Tragedies in Caspar’s life left indelible marks on the subject of his sketches and paintings. Friedrich had lost a mother early in his life as well as a sister who had in essence, replaced a mother was also called early in her life. A brother drowned in an ice floe, reported by some, while attempting to save Caspar- if the case - a life of regrets.

Volume 23 Bless the Beasts Rosa Bonheur 


Born as Marie-Rosalie Bonheur, (16 March 1822 – 25 May 1899) was a French artist, an animalière (painter of animals) and sculptor, known for her artistic realism

To date my age, Bonheur’s body of work, brought back to mind. the Carpenters and one of their top hits:


Bless the beasts and the children,
For the world can never be,
The world they see.
Light their way
When the darkness surrounds them;
Give them love, let it shine all around them.
Bless the beasts and the children;
Give them shelter from a storm;
Keep them safe;
Keep them warm.
Light their way
When the darkness surrounds them;
Give them…

      First exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1848, was Bonheur’s first well-known painting, Ploughing in the Nivernais, and The Horse Fair (cover). It perhaps will not as much of a surprise, after viewing these and some of her other works that Marie Bonheur was considered to be the most famous female painter of the nineteenth century
