"Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire." ~ Saint Catherine of Siena
🎨 Carlo Dolci, "St. Catherine of Siena", 1665-70
Vermeer, “Girl with a Pearl Earring”
(1665) @mauritshuis
This painting is not a portrait, but a “tronie”—a painting of an imaginary figure depicting a particular type or character; in this case a girl in exotic dress, wearing an oriental turban & improbably large pearl earring.
Born on this day (or nearly) in 1638, in Amsterdam, Meindert Hobbema. Painter of wonderfully inhabitable landscapes. Here, High Road, 1665.

Rembrandt’s The Jewish Bride (c1665-9) is, in my opinion, the best love painting in history. The ballet of hands & gesture are superlative

OH! I knew James MacInerney's "Evolution" look on #GlowUpNetflix reminded me of something... it's this illustration from Kircher's 1665 "Mundus Subterraneus"!

In 1665 Robert Hooke published his most famous work Micrographia (”Small Drawings”). In it he included his studies and illustrations of the crystal structure of snowflakes and first used the word cell to name the microscopic honeycomb cavities in cork.5/
