Si enim intellexisset, ori suo imposuisset manum.
@ivdnt.bsky.social Kunt u me verklaren hoe dit taalkundig mogelijk is? Welbewust wordt ook door Vondel anders gebruikt, door de VW begrepen als 'nooit misdaad vergetend'. www.dbnl.org/tekst/vond00...

Vang voor ons de vossen,

de kleine vossen

die de wijngaarden te gronde richten,

nu onze wijngaarden bloeien.

Doge Andrea Gritti, 1540, by Titian. One of the 2 greatest Doge portraits, other being of course Bellini's Loredan. But it's Titian's day today.

Madonna of the steps: simple monumentality from Nicolas Poussin, who was born on this day in 1594. Perhaps with a nod to Caravaggio's fruit basket, too.

In 1548, Tintoretto caused wonder & consternation on Venetian art scene w/ his controversial masterpiece, Saint Mark Freeing the Slave. I'm on the wonder side! Tintoretto died (alas) OTD 1594.

Born on this day in 1498, Maarten van Heemskerck. Here in front of the Colosseum in 1553, although it had been 20 years since his life-changing trip to Italy. He still remembers!

Mary & Margaret Gainsborough, painted in 1758 by their doting father Thomas Gainsborough. I do slightly worry about their sisterly relationship.

Women on a balcony, fixing their hair and doing laundry. An amazing trompe l'oeil ceiling at the Pitti Palace by Alessandro Allori, 1589. Today is his day.

2/2 Max Ernst had a very, er, different take on the relationship between Mary & her son. Misreading of Campin from 1926.

2/2 Self-portrait by Jan de Heem. Portraiture wasn't really his thing, but he had to immortalize his own features! And today is his birthday.

Fish Market, 1627. Brilliant work by Jacob Cuyp, whose day is today. Fish seller & woman stare at each other. Maid in red stares at you. I wrote a whole book so I could discuss this painting!
