Larsson considered his frescoes & murals his most important work & was disappointed that they did not receive the attention he felt they deserved. Entry of King Gustav (1908), The Household (1908), The Study Room (1908) & the Bedroom (1909)
Florence study abroad with @UChicagoCollege day 3: Brancaci chapel frescoes under restoration and a cool coat of arms with crayfish!
There are loads of sick frescoes in the Vatican but this beauty in the Hall of Constantine is my fav. I wonder if Raphael was pissed off with his super fussy clients so he gave them this dwarf with his ballbag hanging out as a fuck you? 😆

Portrait of a Man (c1506) & Portrait of a Lady (c1506). His next major commission was to paint frescoes on the exterior of the German Merchant’s Hall. This was an important work in that it was visible to all & thus had a massive influence on his contemporaries.
I did my PhD on #Roman wall painting but the frescoes from Pompeii will never cease to amaze me: a beautiful dove from the Casa del Bracciale d'oro.
On display in the special exhibition "Art and sensuality in the houses of Pompeii" - in Pompeii.

First stop - the Naples National Archaeological Museum.
I knew what to expect - mostly - but there’s nothing to quite prepare you for staring down the level of artistry in the two millennia-old frescoes, mostly salvaged from houses in Pompeii and housed here 🧵
Reni’s commission to paint the Crucifixion of St Peter (1604-5) as well as his frescoes at the Casino dell’Aurora (1614-16) established his reputation as one of the greatest artists working in Rome at the time. His Aurora (1614) was one of the most influential works among artists
The great pleasure of a Ghirlandaio fresco is that there is so much to take in. Each character has their own story to tell & the mind soon takes flight trying to arrive at what they are thinking. Further details of the S Trinita frescoes.
🪔 For #FrescoFriday: a Nightingale from the House of the Golden Bracelet, Pompeii. The nightingale is a migratory bird 🐦, residing mostly in woods. It was rarely painted on frescoes because it was not colorful. It is likely to have been kept as a caged bird for its 🎶 songs.
