The Persian March and Gerome's paintings..a splendid combination! I'd never seen many of these but they were all wonderful. My intro to his work was over 55 years ago in a school book..a b/w repro of his famous gladiatorial work "We Who Are About to Die Salute You". I love his work-- so rich and detailed. Might someday you do a video on the art of Lawrence Alma Tadema? Thanks for sharing your beautiful videos on YOU TUBE.
Bouguereau, messioner, Lefevre, Gerome and a few english artist like Tissot, Waterhouse, etc. Thats what 19th century art was all about. Great post thanks.
Realism is a favorite! Although surrealism follows close behind. Watch here for Tissot someday, as I adore his paintings of women and flowers. TY 4 your comment!
Thanks for the reply. Tissot was an interesting artist. After his lady friend and model passed away he included her in all of his paintings. Also, he was born in a seap so the ships in his pictures all have very acurate rigging. In other words if you see a line, it goes somewhere, etc. super artist. One of my favorite. Thanks again for the post.
Justamente excelente, bellas obras de la pintura, que desconocía. gracias.

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
I am sorry your baby passed away. I have had my buddy Ziggy for 17 years and I know it will be like losing a child when he leaves me.
Peace.

I am happy you enjoyed it, I adore his works and the "Persian March" just sticks in my head.
There is a distinct possibility you will see Tadema here someday, as I find his style and coice of subjects attractive.
Thank you erzbet07, for watching and taking the time to comment. I appreciate it very much!
Peace.

Jim275,
Ain't that the truth. Yet correct opinion (NY Times) still slimes the lot (indiscrimately) as "kitsch".

I've only just discovered Gerome, his glorious use of color, mastery of technique and choice of subjects attracted me right away.
