Disney's 'Lilo & Stitch' isn't a #Christmas movie, but it should be. It has so much heart in every frame, set amongst gorgeous watercolor backgrounds. I watch it every Christmas Eve. ❤️

On this beautiful Sunday morning, here's Rembrandt's 'Man In a Turban' (1632), on display at the #MetMuseum. It's a very telling study of how gold reflects even the smallest amount of light, much as gilded details on statues would have done in antiquity. @TheFrameBlogMag

@Vicky_Austen I've wanted to see this fresco for 50 years, and on every trip to Rome, my husband and I have either skipped the museum, or it's been closed, or that floor has been closed. Today ... omg. Made up for all the lost time. Here's another one ...

@p_historians @DocCrom @antmoose I was thinking of publishing the same fresco today, as I was using it to study fresco technique. I wish I could find a high res version of the whole scene, but here's a low res version. All of the items they're playing with seem to be attributes of Apollo.

@pompei79 @MANNapoli Clearly the same artist that made this one - from the same house - showing Hera giving us her true thoughts on her husband.

P.S. Note the tied objects on that column, including the brilliantly painted cymbals. Arrows? Meaning? @JohnJJohnston

@GrecianGirly @NCDrusus38 It's a stunning chariot. One of my favorite pieces at the #metmuseum.

Mithras was a *male-only* cult, very popular among Roman soldiers and customs officials (hence all of the Mithraea in the port of Ostia). It emerged in the 1st c. AD and died in the 4th c. with the social, economic and political changes accompanying the rise of Christianity 13/

The crescent moon over Julia's head makes her one of the 'daughters as Diana', a funerary motif popular at that time, marking her as a virgin. The crescent moon is the symbol of the virgin goddess Diana, as well as a symbol of eternity. 4/

This Roman carnelian ring stone (1st-3rd c. AD) is an incredibly rare depiction of an artist at work. He looks to be applying paint to a portrait head with a brush. It's thought that he holds a palette in his other hand. #polychromy #metmuseum 1/2

In 1826/27, the poet/artist William Blake reinterpreted the Laocoön as a copy of an original Hebraic work representing Jehovah and his two sons, Satan and Adam. Other inscriptions surrounding the central design set forth Blake's interrelated opinions on money, morality, etc. 1/
