  • August Macke and artworks

    August Macke (1887-1914) was a master of German Expressionism, a movement which sprang up in the early 1900s with the intent to forego physical reality in search of its emotional counterpart, with a particular emphasis on expressing dark moods of tragedy and angst. Macke was a master of color and form, producing eye-catching canvases that evoke a strong sympathetic reaction in the viewer. He was ... Read more

  • Christian Critters

    by August Mack ...
    Christian Critters is what God gave me for this book. From a life of abuse as a child and misguidance as a teen, I didn't know that I was specially made by the hands of a loving Creator until my adult years. When the revelation of that fact hit me, I had an overwhelming desire to reach out with the talents God blessed me with to tell children and adults alike that they too were created uniquely ...

    Pierre-Auguste Renoir was born in Limoges on 25 February 1841. In 1854, the boy’s parents took him from school and found a place for him in the Lévy brothers’ workshop, where he was to learn to paint porcelain.

  • Modigliani

    Modigliani (1884-1920) was a painter of great unhappiness in his native Italy and felt only sorrow in his adopted country of France.

His portrayal of women—sensual bodies, almost aggressive nudity, and mysterious faces—expresses their suffering and ... Read more

  • Pissarro

    “Father Pissarro”, as his friends liked to call him, was the most restrained of the artists of the Impressionist movement. Perhaps it was his age, being older than his fellow artists Monet, Sisley, Bazille, and Renoir, or rather his maturity, which resulted in his works having such serene and sober subjects and compositions. A man of simple tastes, he enjoyed painting peasants going about their ... Read more

  • Lempicka and artworks

    by Patrick Bade ...
    The smoothly metallic portraits, nudes and still lifes of Tamara de Lempicka encapsulate the spirit of Art Deco and the Jazz Age, and reflect the elegant and hedonistic life-style of a wealthy, glamorous and privileged elite in Paris between the two World Wars.

    by Donald Wigal ...

  • Édouard Manet and artworks

    Manet is one of the most famous artists from the second half of the nineteenth century linked to the impressionists, although he was not really one of them. He had great influence on French painting partly because of the choice he made for his subjects from everyday life, the use of pure colours, and his fast and free technique. He made, in his own work, the transition between Courbet’s Realism ... Read more

  • Edgar Degas

    Ballet, Movement, and Introspection

    Degas was closest to Renoir in the impressionist’s circle, for both favoured the animated Parisian life of their day as a motif in their paintings. Degas did not attend Gleyre’s studio; most likely he first met the future impressionists at the Café Guerbois. He started his apprenticeship in 1853 at the studio of Louis-Ernest Barrias and, beginning in 1854, studied under Louis Lamothe, who revered ... Read more
