2/2 Teaser: whose starry sky?

Teaser: whose sun?

2/2 Small boy in all black feeds biscuit to evil goat in 1655. Oh dear. By Anthonie Palamedesz, whose day is today.

2/2 Bellini's feast of the Gods, at which nobody seems to be having much fun. He: I am a god and you turn me on. She: You are not a god and I have so had it with this party.

Imaginary church, with grave digger having a little chat with a visitor about mortality or something similar. Dogs waiting patiently. By Emanuel de Witte, whose day was today.

Sunlight falls through windows, adding to the geometric pattern on the floor. A woman is playing music. And a man listens from the shadowed bed. Brilliant painting by Emanuel de Witte, whose day is today.

2/2 The Oude Kerk in Delft, during a sermon, 1669. Again with that great play of light, which Emanuel de Witte is so good at. Today is his day.

4/4 Teaser: whose organ?

Youth: Boys swimming. Fond memories of warmer times, painted by Nicolas Maes in 1655. His day is today.

Died (alas!) on this day in 1693, in Amsterdam, Nicolaes Maes. Marvelous painter of daily life and portraits. Here by himself in 1685, as a famous old dude.
