"Knowing that you cannot be a good painter unless you are a universal master capable of imitating with your art all the qualities of the forms which nature produces, and that you will not be able to do unless you see them in your mind and copy them from there." - Leonardo. #arthistory #art #kunst #konst #artlover #искусство #renaissance #arthistory #leonardodavinci #arttravel #arttrotter #thearttrotter (at Oslo, Norway) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByQUPVQh3ex/?igshid=1rv0s4xb6nd5y

Salvador Dali was a many of many contrasts. 🙈😁 Salvador Dali loved to be in the center of attention. As a consequence, he always strived to attract that attention. One of his passions was to be photographed. His friend and renowed photographer Philippe Halsman took numerous photos of Dali. In this shot - Surreal photograph of S.Dali and Three Flying Cats - Dali initially suggested to blow up a duck using dynamite. 🙊 They made 26 attempts.. 😱 and the version with the flying cats was preferred. 🙀 🐈 When Halsman finished the work Dali added seirls of paint on the easel. #arthistory #art #kunst #konst #artlover #искусство #surrealism #photography #philippehalsman #salvadordali #arttravel #arttrotter #thearttrotter (at Oslo, Norway) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByIXwIPBmyC/?igshid=fbdher5pzw2i

"Поглядев на небо, я продолжил грести веслами" - Fedor Konyukhov. (Having looked at the sky I continued to row with oars). Here is a "Red Seagull" by this incredible artist and a universal genius Fedor Konyukhov. Fedor Konyukhov is a Russian priest, survivalist, voyager, aerial and marine explorer and artist. In May this year he wrote a new page in the history of ocean rowing. He crossed the longitude of the Chilean Diego Ramirez Islands and became the first person in history to complete a solo voyage on a row boat across the Southern Ocean, from New Zealand to the Drake Passage. @fedorkonyukhov I recently saw his unique art exhibition in Russian Museum in St. Petersburg where he paints and shares his experiences and learnings on beautiful canvases. ❤️ Stay tuned for a full post on the show. ❤️ #arthistory #traveller #explorer #russianart #russianartist #fedorkonyukhov #русскоеискусство #федорконюхов #arttrotter #thearttrotter (at Saint Michael's Castle) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx0kznqBjer/?igshid=1njrcygbxotw0

#streetview photo credit @the_art_trotter 😊 Aventine keyhole on Aventine hill in Rome opening up for a view on a wonderfully lined up park with a view on St. Peter's basilica! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 (Unfortunately it was not possible to focus the lense on my phone to capture the basilica). Today it is a popular "view point" and tourist attraction. Rome must be the most beautiful and romantic city in the world. It has endless activity options and hidden pearls like this. Next time I want to be the in early morning hours (ala late night hours) to see it again all for myself without a tourist line 😝🙏. #aventinehill #aventinekeyhole #rome #roma #romantic #arthistory #artblogger #arttrotter #thearttrotter (at Keyhole) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxgsd6IACMq/?igshid=yxcw68yscw2d

Gratulerer med dagen, Norge! 🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴 Happy 17 May, happy constitution day, happy National day, Norway! 👇 👇 👉 "Scream" by Edvard Munch may be the most known artwork in Norway, but “Eidsvoll 1814” by Oscar Wergeland from 1885 (above) is by far the most important one. It represents the  historic meeting of the 112 Constitution Committee members spring 1814, who met in Eidsvoll in Norway to agree on the first Norwegian Constitution. The meeting marked the foundation of the Norwegian parlament (=Stortinget), and put ground for the modern democracy, starting Norway’s journey to its independence from the union with Sweden that finally happened in 1905. 🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴 This majestic painting is undoubtedly considered one of if not the most important painting in Norway.. It was made for and is currently located in the center of the main parlament hall in Stortinget in Norway. The year 1814 was a major year in the Norwegian history, the year when Norway took its first steps towards independence from its Scandinavian neighbours, and the year when Norwegian constitution was written and agreed on May 17, 1814. 🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴 Photo crefit @the_art_trotter #oscarwergeland #stortinget #eidsvoll1814 #norwegianart #norskkunst  #norway #norge #nordics #norwegianartist #oslo #arthistory #art #kunst #konst #painting #arttrotter#followme #arthistory #fineart #instaart #artlover #artnet #artoftheday #instaartdaily #artwatchers_united #luxury #искусство #художник #норвегия #luxurytravel #thearttrotter #fineart (at Oslo, Norway) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxjWOjpA7x5/?igshid=1045egmldg05v
