Very effective and so appropriate in that place.

The expression of the painting is beautifully done.

?????? ??????'?? ?????????? ?????????? ??????????. Just take a look at Caravaggio. And I mean LOOK! He is the master of shadows. He painted these things before YouTube... only 400 odd years after Oxford University was founded... before penicillin! And all the conveniences of modern day life we have available today. Back then, these artists were in constant trouble with the authorities for sodomy, murder and getting in fights. They were RAUCOUS! Yet the guy was an utter genius. Do you know what they say about this absolute LEGEND of portraiture today?: "He was a painter of genius who worked with extraordinary speed, painting directly onto the canvas without even sketching out the main figures." So. When you're a master. You are FAST. And you provide QUALITY. Speed + quality = exceptional value. So don't undersell yourself. And don't expect to get a master on your team cheaper than chips.

?? Dive into a historical marine tragedy through the eyes of James Shaw with his evocative painting, "The Admella Wrecked, Cape Banks, 6th August 1859". This artwork captures the harrowing scene of the SS Admella, which disastrously struck a reef off the coast of South Australia, leading to one of the country's worst maritime disasters. The work is rendered in oils, a medium adept at conveying the tumultuous emotions and turbulent sea that marked that fateful day. Shaw's application of dark, brooding colors interspersed with stark whites vividly brings to life the violent waves and desperate struggle for survival of those on board. James Shaw, primarily known for his marine subjects, here utilizes a dramatic representation style that helps highlight the ferocity of the natural elements against human endeavors. His ability to depict motion and emotion through tumultuous seascapes transforms a historical event into a poignant narrative about human vulnerability and the merciless power of nature. This painting, while capturing a specific historical moment, also faced scrutiny and sparked conversations regarding the depiction of tragedy and the ethics of representing real events where many lives were lost. Immerse yourself in this powerful portrayal of a moment that is both a significant part of maritime history and a telling example of 19th-century romantic yet realistic artistry. #JamesShaw #19thCenturyArt #marineArt #AustralianArt #historicalPainting #TheAdmellaWrecked #CapeBanks #ArtHistory #tragicArt #maritimeDisaster #shipwreck #oilPainting #realism #romanticism #natureVsMan #historicalEvent #seascape #oceanArt #artistSpotlight #ArtisticVision #ArtControversy #professionalArtHistorian #historicalArtworks #artEducation #museumFavorite #artLovers #classicArt #navalHistory #artCollection

After visiting the Goddess stone sculpture yesterday, I was able to finish a short documentary on the river Goddess Trisentona. Near to Alrewas in Staffordshire is one of Britain’s most remarkable Neolithic sites, the Catholme Ceremonial Complex. Discovered from aerial photography in the 1960s and only first excavated in the early 2000s, this site is an enigma: a series of ritual monuments spanning nearly two millennia of use. This began with a cursus, which was created some 5,500 years ago. Cursuses are very rare and little understood, and the remains are usually just a set of parallel ditches ranging in length from 50m to more than 3km. The Catholme cursus function is unknown, although they always have a specific alignment (often east-west), and the ones in the Trent Valley are associated with the river, perhaps as a buffer zone between the secular world and sacred sites. They are connected with ritual and sacred purposes, probably ceremonial and processional and certainly connected with the rivers. These monuments represent something very special, and I'm glad the HS1 route avoided this site. The story in the short documentary talks about how Trisentona, the Goddess of the river was worshipped in this Ceremonial Complex. Maybe even this is how The River Trent got its name. https://lnkd.in/ee-qwVp7

"Traces of the Unseen" is a painting born from my desire to connect with something beyond the material world. ?? Delicate pink hues, bold black strokes, and bursts of vibrant orange intertwine to reveal the hidden depths of our inner worlds. ????? I share with you the story of its creation, the inspiration behind the colors, and the emotions that lie within its depths. ? In the blog, you will discover more about the symbolism of the colors and how to bring "Traces of the Unseen" into your home. ?? https://lnkd.in/d6y-HdXU

PIGS DON'T VALUE PEARLS “...Don’t throw your pearls to pigs! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you." Matthew 7:6 You have to be discerning. Not everyone has the ability to discern your value and reward your true worth. Therefore, don't bother giving yourself or value to a person or people who are undeserving. Entrust people with the extent of you which they can appreciate, based on their level of understanding. The costliest painting in the world is Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci, valued at $870 million, according to BelArt Gallery. That's a lot of money for one painting, right??? However, it is valued that much because people, who were discerning of its worth, placed a corresponding value to it. Think about this question deeply: ? Could it be that you have been viewing your worth through the lens of people who are undiscerning of your true worth? It is time to pick those pearls you threw before the "pigs" (the people who can't understand your true worth), and move ahead????♀? Why are you baffled as to why you are being attacked for the value you are and bring? The answer is, they are not able to grasp your worth, because it's still above their capacity. Hence, what they can't understand, they fight! Don't sell yourself short! #pigsdonotvaluepearls #chiderahwrites #chiderahbeulah #selfworth #selfvalue #wisdom #motivation #motivational
