Trompe-l’œil ft. Napoleon and Charles IV of Spain

1801

Laurent Dabos

Location: Marmottan Museum

A trompe-l’œil is a type of painting which creates an optical allusion which tricks the viewer into perceiving painted objects or spaces as real. This style of painting dates back to ancient times, but the term itself originated during the Napoleonic Era when it was first used by Louis-Léopold Boilly as the title of his 1800 painting.

"Saint-Georges majeur au crépuscule (San Giorgio Maggiore at Dusk)" (1908 - Claude Monet) / "Water-Lilies, Reflection of a Weeping Willow" (1916–1919 - Claude Monet)

SAINT-GEORGES MAJEUR AU CRPUSCULE (SAN GIORGIO MAGGIORE AT DUSK): the colours the colours. the way the brushstrokes soften the buildings but define the waves. the ethereal buildings. (@kaerran)

WATER-LILIES, REFLECTION OF A WEEPING WILLOW: Its just so cool to me bcs it looks so natural yet unnatural at the same time and it’s probably one of my favourite impresionist style paintings? Also what I love about seeing the actual piece is that you can see these bits of unpainted canvas and it makes the painting feel like a portal. I tried to draw it (like I normally do when I see an art piece I really like, especially at museums) and it just dosnt work. It’s amazing and it looks like a fairytale scene despite the fact Monet painted this from his backyard (@azurecake16)

("Saint-Georges majeur au crépuscule (San Giorgio Maggiore at Dusk)" is an oil on canvas landscape painting by Claude Monet. It measures 65.2 cm × 92.4 cm (25.7 in × 36.4 in) and is on display at the National Museum Cardiff. A second version is owned by the Bridgestone Museum of Art in Tokyo.

"Water-Lilies, Reflection of a Weeping Willow" is one of Monet's later water-lily pieces. It is oil on canvas and measures 2 x 2m (6.56 x 6.56 ft), and is held by the Musée Marmottan Monet. This photo was taken by the submitter!)

today's museum: musée marmottan monet today's museum read: vanity fair (1847-1848) by william makepeace thackeray

[unexpectedly-haunted]

Soo about art history! Well I studied a lot about applied art history - I really hope that's the right word but it's like furniture and stuff as well around architecture, sculpted and painted art (boii oh boi I really don't know the English terms sorry!!) And that was really interesting and I love learning more bc there's always so much more to know! I think my studies mainly focused on being able to put dates on art pieces and sort them into a time period - but also.. random funny artist stories my beloved XD Also for my thesis I had a look at Soviet war memorials so that's up my alley as well!

Hbu? Do you have any fav periods/genres/artists? :3

ooh applied art history sounds great! i wish my courses covered more architecture and practical crafts like furniture, it's pretty centered on painting and sculpture for the most part. and Soviet war memorials?? damn that's such a good topic, and hey hell yeah, congratulations on writing a thesis!!

and YES i do have favourites, putting it below a read-more sdkfgh:

RIGHT so my favourite movement is absolutely Impressionism, i love the depiction of light and the painting style of lots of small distinct brushstrokes is Such a wonderful effect. i'd have to say Claude Monet is one of my all time favourite artists, i especially love his sunsets:

Impression, Sunrise, 1872, oil on canvas, 48 × 63 cm, Musée Marmottan Monet, Paris

Also really like his snowy landscapes, and how he paints water, as well as his colour choices! it's not really displayed in these paintings, but in a lot of his more natural landscapes- especially the floral ones- the colours are so vibrant :D

Train in the Snow, 1875, oil on canvas, 59 x 78cm, Musée Marmottan Monet, Paris

The Magpie, 1869, oil on canvas, 89 x 130cm, Musée d'Orsay, Paris

The Water Lily Pond (Nymphéas), 1904, oil on canvas, 90 x 92cm, private collection

The Bridge at Argenteuil, 1874, oil on canvas, 60.5 x 80cm, Musée d'Orsay, Paris

Similarly, I really like J.M.W. Turner, particularly for his dramatic seascapes and his paintings of ruins! Some favourites would be:

Fishermen at Sea/The Cholmeley Sea Piece, 1796, oil on canvas, 91.4 x 122.2cm, Tate Britain, London

The Burning of the Houses of Lords and Commons, 16th October, 1834, 1934, oil on canvas, 92 x 123cm, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia

Melrose Abbey, 1822, pencil and watercolour on paper, 19.6 x 13.3cm, private collection

and these are some more things I've studied that I ended up really liking!

Edouard Manet: he was So controversial in nineteenth century Paris it's ridiculous, and i found it fun to look at all the layers of constructed identity in his works! Most well known for Olympia.

Chez le père Lathuille, 1879, oil on canvas, Musée des Beaux-Arts Tournai

Caravaggio: LOVE the horror and detail and drama of his works, third life enjoyers might like all the beheadings skjfhdg. highly recommend looking into this guy's life story and historical context because he. man. he sure was a character! it's also hilarious to read about how hated he was for painting in a naturalistic style. (and. the murder but honestly it seems like they hated his painting more)

Saint Jerome Writing, c. 1605-6, oil on canvas, 112 × 157 cm, Galleria Borghese (one of the tamest of his works skjdfh)

Hiroshige Utagawa and Katsushika Hokusai: had a unit on Japanese print making and !!! i hadn't known much about print as a medium but Holy Shit it's so versatile and the works by these artists are just stunning! want to look more into print for sure :D

Utagawa Hiroshige, Plum Garden, Kamata (Kamata no Umezono), in One Hundred Views of Edo, 1856–59, woodblock print, 34 x 24.1 cm, Brooklyn Museum

Awa Province: Naruto Whirlpools, in Famous Places in the Sixty-odd Provinces, 1855, woodblock print, 36.5 x 24.4 cm, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

Hokusai made SO MUCH work but his most famous work by far is:

Katsushika Hokusai, Under the Wave Off Kanagawa, in Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji, woodblock print, 1830-1832, 25.7 x 37.8 cm, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City

Gothic architecture: haven't gone into much depth with architecture, really liked what i learnt though, and the round arches, ribbed vaults, and tall windows with stained glass are beautiful.

St. Francis Xavier Church, c. 1840, Amsterdam, Holland

and thank you so much for the ask!!! i'd love to hear more about anything art history related from you (or anyone else!), as specific or in depth as you like :D
