Born #OnThisDay—Arnold Böcklin's haunting work made him an important contributor to the Symbolist movement.
"In the Sea" displays an unsettling, earthy realism. Mermaids and tritons frolic in the water with a lusty abandon, as large-eared heads emerge from the water. #NowOnView
Using a single color to set the emotional tone of a work, or choosing limited combinations of color with black, as #ErnstLudwigKirchner does in "Tower Room, Fehmarn", the artist intensifies the psychological dramas playing out in the paintings. #NowOnView https://t.co/x8Yv6Wk5j1
A pivotal figure in 19th-century German painting, Carl Blechen's career marks the transition from Romanticism to a more realistic view of nature. "The Palm House" is both a record of a building, located on an island near Potsdam, and an evocation of a fantasy world. #NowOnView

“It is so small a thing, the life of a man, and yet there is time to do great things, fragments of a common task.” —Paul Gauguin, born #OnThisDay in 1848

Giovanni di Paolo worked within the conservative artistic tradition of Siena in 15th-century Italy, creating rich patterns and an intensely devotional mood in his paintings.
