Dynamism of a Soccer Player

Prompt: Focus on Dynamism of a Soccer Player and explain the Analysis.

The painting depicts a dematerialized soccer player. The athlete's calf is seen in the center of the painting, and portions of other body parts can be seen around it. Due to its use of vibrant hues divided into sections, the painting gives the impression that rays of light are illuminating the subject. Furthermore, the painting's use of transparent and opaque overlapping shapes exhibits a Cubist influence. Dynamism of a Soccer Player demonstrates the following principle presented in Boccioni's Futurist Painting: Technical Manifesto, that "To paint a human figure you must not paint it; you must render the whole of its surrounding atmosphere ... movement and light destroy the materiality of bodies."

Prompt: Focus on Portrait of Charles de Solier, Sieur de Morette and explain the Description.

Described as "[o]ne of the greatest of all Holbein's individual portraits" by art historian Susan Foister, this painting is extraordinary for the simplicity of its composition. The subject stands before a curtain of sea-green damask, represented life-size and half-length, facing the viewer. He wears a doublet of black satin, the sleeves of which are slashed with white silk; the gold buttons are adorned with an ornamental motif of two M's. His surcoat is of the same black material, with a heavy collar and lining of fur. Both sleeves and black cap are decorated with gold tags, and on the cap he wears a circular gold cap-badge with a figure of John the Baptist with an inscription: DOCE ME FACERE VOLVNTATEM. A design by Holbein for a cap-badge with John the Baptist survives in the British Museum. Around his neck is a gold chain from which hangs a medallion or watchcase of openwork. The attitude, the glove on the left hand and the half-covered medallion on the chain are reminiscent of Titian’s L'Homme au Gant in the Louvre. In his right hand he holds a glove, and his left, which is gloved, grasps the gilt and elaborately chased sheath of a dagger, suspended from his girdle by a chain with a large tassel, such as the one worn by Jean de Dinteville in The Ambassadors (1533). His long, reddish beard is streaked with grey.Franny Moyle observes that the imposing figure of Charles de Solier is "unquestionably regal" and there seems little doubt this portrait is a "prototype for his next cycle of work – his portraits of Henry VIII."

Prompt: Focus on Portrait of Charles de Solier, Sieur de Morette and explain the Indentification.

The preliminary drawing of the head is in the Kupferstich-Kabinett, Dresden; an engraving by Wenceslas Hollar appears to have been made from the drawing and gives in addition to the date, 1647, the name “Mr. Morett”, ex collectiane Arundeliana. The painting came into the possession of Duke Francesco I of Modena, after the Earl of Arundel tried in vain to buy it. In 1657 the Microcosmo della Pittura by Francesco Scanelli still mentioned Holbein's picture though the name of the man portrayed was no longer known. Subsequently, the name of the artist was also forgotten and the painting entered the gallery of August III, King of Poland and Elector of Saxony as "portrait of Ludovico il Moro, Duke of Milan, by Leonardo da Vinci".In the 19th century Carl Friedrich von Rumohr recognised it as a work by Holbein and Johann Gottlob von Quandt identified the man as the goldsmith Hubert Morett, who had worked at the same time as Holbein at the court of Henry VIII. In 1881, after the Holbein exhibition at Dresden, Norwegian art collector, Sophus Larpent's study, Sur le portrait de Morett dans la galerie de Dresde, proved that the life-size painting represented the French diplomat. Conclusive proof was provided by the discovery, in 1903, of a boxwood model of a contemporary medallion by Christoph Weiditz, now at the Victoria and Albert Museum, which represents Morette full face, aged about 50, with his name and titles in full; on the back his device of a seaport, a horse, and a dolphin.

Needle, Thread and Knot

Prompt: Focus on Needle, Thread and Knot and explain the abstract.

Needle, Thread and Knot (Italian: Ago, Filo e Nodo) is a public artwork in two parts by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen in Piazzale Cadorna, Milan, Italy.Commissioned by the City of Milan as part of the renovations of the Milan Cadorna railway station, and unveiled in February 2000, the sculpture is a fountain made of stainless steel and reinforced plastic, painted with polyester gelcoat and polyurethane enamel. The "knot" is placed in the middle of a fountain on the middle of the square while the sewing needle is on the footpath in front of the train station. According to the artists the needle pulling thread through fabric is a metaphor for a train going through a tunnel. The thread wrapped around a needle also "paraphrased" the city emblem of a snake coiled around a sword. According to the City of Milan, it is also meant as a tribute to Milan's influence in the fashion industry. The three thread colours (red, green, yellow) selected by the artists are meant to reflect the three lines of the Milan Metro at the time.

Prompt: Focus on Virgin and Child with Two Angels (Botticelli, Strasbourg) and explain the abstract.

Virgin and Child with two Angels is a panel painting by the Italian Renaissance painter Sandro Botticelli. It is on display in the Musée des Beaux-Arts of Strasbourg, France. Its inventory number is 558.Owing to its comparatively poor condition, due to the peeling off of some tempera layers as well as some ancient restoration attempts, the painting had not unanimously been attributed to Botticelli himself: critics like Bernard Berenson, who had at first declared it to be genuine, later attributed it to Botticelli's workshop. Today, art historians largely agree that it is indeed an early painting by Sandro Botticelli. Some disagreement existed on how early, given that the painting displays clear influences of Botticelli's master Filippo Lippi (which would put it in the early 1460s), but also an obvious knowledge of the works of Andrea del Verrocchio (which would put it in the later 1460s). It is now agreed upon that the painting was made in the year 1468 or 1469.Virgin and Child with two Angels was bought in London by Karl Trübner in 1904, from the heirs of Horatio Granville Murray-Stewart (1834–1904), former High Sheriff of Donegal. It was inherited by the Strasbourg museum in 1908, together with other paintings from the Trübner collection, such as Van Everdingen's Nordic Landscape with a Castle on a Hill.

The Ladies Waldegrave

Prompt: Focus on The Ladies Waldegrave and explain the abstract.

The Ladies Waldegrave is a group portrait by Joshua Reynolds from 1780–81, now in the Scottish National Gallery, who acquired it in 1952. It shows the three daughters of James Waldegrave, 2nd Earl Waldegrave, and Maria Walpole – from left to right, Charlotte (holding a skein of silk), Elizabeth (winding Charlotte's skein onto a card) and Anna (producing tambour lace). Exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1781, it was commissioned the previous year by the subjects' mother in the hope of attracting potential suitors for them – all three of them were then unmarried.

The Mother and Sister of the Artist

Prompt: Focus on The Mother and Sister of the Artist and explain the History.

The painting depicts Berthe Morisot's mother, Marie-Joséphine, and her favourite sister, Edma Pontillon. Since the beginning of their artistic career, the two sisters had learned their art together. However, in 1869 her sister got married and gave up painting at the insistence of her husband. In this painting, Edma was pregnant with her first child.Unlike her friend Édouard Manet, who found it difficult to get his works accepted, Morisot was able to exhibit this painting at the Salon, along with The Harbor at Lorient, something that she was doing since 1864, and that would last until 1874, when she joined the First Impressionist Exhibition with her work, The Cradle.This work received a positive review, despite being a "feminine painting". After her death, the work ceased to be exhibited. It was not until the middle of the 20th century that it began to interest the experts.

The Mother and Sister of the Artist

Prompt: Focus on The Mother and Sister of the Artist and explain the Analysis.

Two characters are depicted in the work, Edma Pontillon, Berthe's sister, and Mme. Morisot. As it was common in the painting of women artists, the subjects represented are domestic scenes or landscapes, as well as self-portraits or still life. In this case, we can see the artist's mother reading a book, an activity that gives the painting its original title, and her sister appears with a pensive expression. During this time, Edma was pregnant with her first child, and surely her thoughts were focused on the loss of having to put her married life before her devotion to painting. In one of the constant letters that she exchanged with Berthe, she wrote her: "I am often with you, dear Berthe, in spirit; I'm in your studio and I'd love to get away for just a quarter of an hour so I can breathe in the atmosphere we've lived in for years."She was trying to complement family life and art for a while, but, as she told her sister, it was impossible, as she was often too tired even to paint a small canvas. Berthe was also in a moment of crisis; despite her great personal consideration, the art world did not make it easy for women artists. She continually needed the approval of her fellow painters to feel confident in her painting.When Morisot made this work at the end of 1869, she asked fellow painter Pierre Puvis de Chavannes for advice. He only told her to work on the mother's head. Later, she told her sister: "I went to Manet's studio on Saturday (...) seeing that I was undecided, he told me enthusiastically: Tomorrow, after sending my painting, I will go see yours, and believe me: I will tell you what to do."When, finally Manet come to visit her, Berthe describes in that same letter that he took his brushes and began to apply black on his mother's dress, a favourite colour of him, continuing on the head and even touching the background. This whole process made Berthe Morisot very angry, and she wished that they would not have accepted the painting in the salon, calling the final work a "caricature". In this way, it is explained why her work as large presence of black, a color hardly used in impressionism, but that it was common in Manet's painting. On the other hand, it can also be seen how there are two differentiated spaces between Edna and Mme. Morisot. While the first is completely illuminated by the clarity of the window, the other appears more in darkness. In addition, there is a great contrast between the young woman's pale robe and her mother's black dress. Their different attitudes, passive and active, also illustrate the difference between the two women portrayed.The scene takes place in the living room of Morisot's parents' house. In the background there is a mirror where a curtained door is reflected. The large upholstered sofa and the wooden table show the social class to which her aristocratic family belonged.

The painting depicts an old woman and a young man digging for camote (sweet potato). Camote Diggers is a 1969 oil on canvas work measuring 88 cm × 149 cm (35 in × 59 in).

The smaller version had the inscription "To my friend Tony Kayanan, in admiration, Botong Francisco" on its back.According to historian and curator Ambeth Ocampo, the digging of the old woman along with the young man, which he says could possibly be her son, is a commentary on the plight of the poor.

Camote Diggers

Prompt: Focus on Camote Diggers and explain the Condition and location.

Camote Diggers was left unfinished and was stored inside Botong Francisco's studio until 1973, when Francisco's widow presented the artwork as a gift to then-President Ferdinand Marcos and First Lady Imelda Marcos. The Marcoses are patrons of Francisco, with their last commissioned work being The Life of Ferdinand Marcos. It was then hanged inside the Malacañang Palace, in a room next to the study of the President.By 2004, Camote Diggers was in the possession of a son of a senator who sold it to former Central Bank Governor Jaime C. Laya.The artwork was lent to the Yuchengco Museum from 2011 to 2019 and as part of a rotating exhibition of various National Artists. In 2012, the painting was also featured in a special retrospective on the artist called Botong Francisco: A Nation Imagined at the Ayala Museum that was subsequently published in its exhibition catalogue. In 2019, Camote Diggers was auctioned off at the Leon Gallery Fine Art and Antiques in Manila for ₱23.4 million, inclusive of buyer's premium. However the artwork's provenance became subject of controversy with the heirs of Francisco believing that the painting should be in Malacañang. This led to the consignor, with consent of the buyer who successfully bought the painting in the auction, to donate Camote Diggers to a national museum.

Camote Diggers was left unfinished and was stored inside Botong Francisco's studio until 1973, when Francisco's widow presented the artwork as a gift to then-President Ferdinand Marcos and First Lady Imelda Marcos. The Marcoses are patrons of Francisco, with their last commissioned work being The Life of Ferdinand Marcos. It was then hanged inside the Malacañang Palace, in a room next to the study of the President.By 2004, Camote Diggers was in the possession of a son of a senator who sold it to former Central Bank Governor Jaime C. Laya.The artwork was lent to the Yuchengco Museum from 2011 to 2019 and as part of a rotating exhibition of various National Artists. In 2012, the painting was also featured in a special retrospective on the artist called Botong Francisco: A Nation Imagined at the Ayala Museum that was subsequently published in its exhibition catalogue. In 2019, Camote Diggers was auctioned off at the Leon Gallery Fine Art and Antiques in Manila for ₱23.4 million, inclusive of buyer's premium. However the artwork's provenance became subject of controversy with the heirs of Francisco believing that the painting should be in Malacañang. This led to the consignor, with consent of the buyer who successfully bought the painting in the auction, to donate Camote Diggers to a national museum.
