Being Catholic* is actually such a goated advantage when taking Medieval and Early Renaissance art history classes because 75% of these lectures are just expanations of Biblical stories that I learned at Sunday school when I was eight lmao
* and by catholic i mean that weird “its my heritage and i have faith but the church/organized religion in general really sucks” kinda in-between

#WorldSparrowDay:

Joseph Stella (Italian-American, 1877-1946)
1. Dance of Spring (Song of the Birds), 1924, oil on canvas
2. Study for Song of Birds, c.1924, silverpoint & crayon
from the 2023 “Joseph Stella: Visionary Nature” exhibition at Brandywine Museum of Art
“Stella assembles a classical temple of flora and fauna - in his own words, culled ‘from the elysian lyricism of the Italian spring.’ Flowers rise from a pink lotus at the base of a central column, culminating in the curious combination of a lupine and a longhorn steer's head flower, a floral form that resembles a bull's skull. Below perch three sparrows, the national bird of Italy* and a favorite of Stella's. He may have worked out this group separately in a silverpoint composition (on view adjacently) featuring the birds set among the branches of a winterberry tree rather than within a floral temple.”
🆔 Italian sparrow (Passer italiae)
