Or misusing apostrophes or making grammar mistakes! 🤣#spelling #grammar #punctuation
Day 875 #ArtKicksCovid19 “Kleine Sonnenblumen” (1946) Emil Nolde. @LouisianaChann Nolde was born on this day in 1867. His intensely coloured depictions of urban nightlife, biblical scenes, floral motifs, and landscapes are exemplars of German Expressionism.
Day 868 #ArtKicksCovid19 “Ground Swell” (1939) Edward Hopper. @ngadc This depicts a group of young people in a boat. The scene reveals Hopper's enthusiasm for the sea, which can also be seen in his other nautical artworks – most notably his paintings of New England lighthouses.
Day 866 #ArtKicksCovid19 “Roses” (1890) Vincent Van Gogh. @ngadc Van Gogh died on this day in 1890. At the time this work was painted the Dutch artist was readying himself to leave the asylum in Saint-Rémy for the quiet town of Auvers-sur-Oise outside of Paris.
Day 862 #ArtKicksCovid19 “Gertrude Elizabeth, Lady Colin Campbell” (1897) Giovanni Boldini. @NPGLondon I saw this painting yesterday at the Boldini retrospective at @PetitPalais_ Gertrude Elizabeth Blood was an Irish aristocrat made famous by her divorce from Lord Colin Campbell.

Day 825 #ArtKicksCovid19 “Port of Marseille” (1916) Albert Marquet. @OharaMuseum I’m off to Marseille today. French artist Marquet was one of the Fauvists and was a lifelong friend of Matisse. He subsequently painted in a more naturalistic style, primarily landscapes.
Day 799 #ArtKicksCovid19 “Small Town” (1920) Carl Lohse. @skdmuseum Carl Lohse was a artist I hadn’t heard of before my visit to Dresden last month. The Hamburg-born painter created stunning Expressionist works but he and his paintings seldom received the attention they deserved.
