Self-Portrait with Two Pupils

Artist: Adélaïde Labille-Guiard (French, 1749 – 1803)

Date: 1785

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, New York

Labille-Guiard was born in Paris on 11 April 1749, the youngest of eight children.She grew up in a neighbourhood of artists and, on her own initiative, began painting and receiving training from them.[3] She began to take students of her own in 1780. They were all female, and she was an advocate for women's involvement in painting.

Labille-Guiard spent time planning this painting and there is a chalk study by Labille-Guiard of the two heads of her students where she investigates the closeness of the students heads and the effect of the light. The figure on the left, Marie-Gabrielle Capet, was one of the most talented students and Labille-Guiard's favourite. She lived with the artist even after Labille-Guiard married her first teacher's son, the painter François-André Vincent.

The painting shows Labille-Guiard in a gown and straw hat, and she depicts the materials complexity and the reflection of the dress in the parquet floor. The arrangement of the students heads shows her skill in presenting the interplay of light between their faces. The students are less formally dressed, and in the background are statues of a vestal virgin and a bust of the artist's father. The finished painting is almost life-size, and it has been speculated that the artist and one of the pupils are looking at a mirror. In this case, Labille-Guiard is actually painting the very painting the observer sees.

I used Midjourney v6 to completely reimagine famous artwork in a “Grand Theft Auto” style. The results are mind blowing.

"Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat" is a testament to Van Gogh's prowess in self-portraiture, painted during his Paris period. This period was an artistic renaissance for Van Gogh, characterized by the adoption of brighter, more vibrant colors and new painting techniques. It was in Paris that he encountered the work of Impressionists and Neo-Impressionists, who had a profound influence on his style.

In the painting, Van Gogh presents himself donned in a straw hat, hence the title. What's striking is the radiant color palette - the bold oranges, vivid blues, and striking yellows that offer a stark contrast to his earlier, more somber Dutch works.

What's your favorite Van gogh painting?

okok unsurprisingly i have Many Thoughts

in terms of pure aesthetics, i'd probably go with cafe terrace at night. it's just lovely, and something abt the glowing yellow of the building against the night sky makes me feel so at home

in terms of emotional value and probably overall, i'd have to say almond blossoms. as ive gone insane abt before on this blog, it was painted for vincent's nephew, named after him by his brother. it's a symbol of consistent care and love. i keep it on a spot on my bedroom wall i know i can easily see whenever i need, because it brings me a lot of comfort. reminds me of the overwhelming love that exists in every corner of the world, and also my sister, who has loved me better than anyone i know.

honorable mentions to starry night, self portrait with a straw hat, and every edition of the sunflowers.

thanks so much for the ask!!!! i could fr talk for hours and this genuinely made my day :) be warm & well fed <3
