Feliz Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). This Mexican holiday spans November 1 and 2 and honors loved ones and ancestors who have passed.
We're delighted to welcome Venetian artist Jacopo Bassano's 16th-century painting "The Miracle of the Quails" into the Getty collections.
A grand scale painting rarely seen by the wider public, it depicts an episode of the Miracle of the Quail in the Old Testament.
Grotesques were a fantastic genre of decorative arts most common in the 16th & 17th centuries. They explored a blend of animal, plant, & human forms. These elements were found in ancient Roman grottoes. Over time, the word became over-exaggerated & developed a negative meaning.
It's fall y'all.
Gorgeous colors, gourds, and ghouls. The season is changing and we appreciate the autumnal signs around us.
What things mean fall to you?
Can you guess the artwork from the signature? #ArchivesHashtagParty #ArchivesSignatures
