We chat with the ladies of @TabloidArtHist about the Met Gala and this year's theme, 'Heavenly Bodies', for the #ArtMattersPodcast. Why are artists so inspired by Catholic iconography? And who do we want to see dressed in a gown inspired by this painting? https://t.co/Tors50ymC5
The next focus for #ArtUKFieldTrip is a gem of the #JerwoodCollection: ‘Winter Landscape 1952’ by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham.
This painting is heading on a trip of its own starting @jerwoodgallery, then travels to @museumssheffield later this year.

A #HappyBirthday is in order for George Frederic Watts, born #onthisday in 1817. He's associated with the Symbolist movement, and many of his works are conceptual representations of ideas, like this painting titled, 'Time, Death and Judgement'. https://t.co/cObVhp9Hvv
It's #NationalTriviaDay!
#DidYouKnow that despite producing over 2000 works, Van Gogh only sold one painting during his lifetime?
#FolkloreThursday In honour of #WinterSolstice, we'll share the Greek myth of Persephone. Hades kidnapped her to live with him in the Underworld for half the year, leaving her mother, the goddess of harvest, sad. This causes the infertile winter months. https://t.co/j590jM3azy
