Jeanne Samary looks born ready for Friday, doesn’t she? Turns out she used to go out with Renoir, who painted her post-break up in the Luncheon of the Boating Party that you can see at the Phillips Collection in DC. She’s the one being a major flirt with the two men at the back. And Renoir’s new girlfriend is playing with the dog. Whaaaa?! Renoir, you so crazy!
Even with an animal head to rest her gilded hand on, girlfriend’s not impressed with it being Tuesday.
I bet Edvard Munch’s model smirks whenever someone gives her a compliment, as she should.
Does this Jackson Pollock paper doll also come with the wrecked car from the accident that killed him and his girlfriend’s friend? I see the whiskey bottle and lowball glass, so I appreciate the artist’s use of foreshadowing.
More importantly, like how hot does Frida look as a paper doll?!
“Our cook cooked it, I painted it and we ate it. That was one of the few times I’ve ever eaten the model.” – Norman Rockwell
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.
This article highlights what would happen to a Thanksgiving dinner plate if your family’s crazy Uncle Jerry was actually Mondrian, van Gogh, or Pollock. Good!, because I’m all about playing with my food.
Warhol
Rothko
Georges Seurat
Mondrian
Picasso / the one I’ll be recreating.
Ladies, we’ve been doing it wrong! Let’s bring back hair braids that wrap around our bodies and chokers that are actually entwined with our updo! Don’t think I don’t see those pearls in those middle parts either.
Paired with messy ends and minimal make up? I think we’ve found the new perfect brunch look.
Sometimes art is a table that’s so overdone with decorations, you don’t actually have space for food. Which is fine with me because I REFUSE to size up on Rent the Runway (I don’t care if it’s a free option!).
I found this image after looking up “thanksgiving table,” and Google laughed in my face with these two related searches: thanksgiving tablescapes and modern thanksgiving tablescapes. Wonder what’ll happen if I look up “table settings?”
Bernini’s always doing too much. I mean, really. This funerary monument is for a pious Ludovica Albertoni. And just look at her. Give it up for Bernini — watch him do the most.
Read, “ooh,” and “ahh” to Bernini’s other works here and here.
