Monet: My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece | Part.1
When Claude Monet* and his family settled in Giverny* in 1883 the piece of land sloping gently down from the house to the road was planted with an orchard and enclosed by high stone walls.
A central alley bordered with pines separated it into two parts. Monet had the pines cut down, keeping only the two yews closest to the house to please Alice.
From this Clos Normand of about one hectare, Monet made a garden full of perspectives, symmetries and colours.
Pierre-Auguste Renoir | The Gardens
- What seems most significant to me about our movement [Impressionism] is that we have freed painting from the importance of the subject. I am at liberty to paint flowers and call them flowers, without their needing to tell a story.
Quello che mi sembra più importante per il nostro movimento [l'impressionismo] è che abbiamo liberato la pittura dall'importanza del soggetto. Sono libero di dipingere fiori e chiamarli fiori, senza la necessità di raccontare una storia.
Pierre-Auguste Renoir | Summer landscapes

Il fatto che il suo nome sia stato quasi dimenticato fino a poco tempo è in parte la conseguenza di cambiamenti nel gusto, pittura figurativa abbandonata da tutti tranne una manciata di pittori contemporanei di successo dalla fine degli anni Quaranta fino agli anni Settanta.

Caravaggio | Buona ventura / The Fortune teller, 1630
La Buona Ventura - The Fortune Teller, è un dipinto ad olio su tela dove Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio 1571-1610 sfoggia la propria conoscenza della pittura di genere, premessa sulla quale in seguito Caravaggio costruirà una vera e propria rivoluzione che investe il significato stesso del 'fare pittura'.
Il quadro rappresenta una zingara che, mentre legge la mano ad un giovane soldato, gli sfila abilmente l’anello. Secondo un biografo, Caravaggio avrebbe invitato a posare per il quadro una zingara che passava per
caso per strada.
Il dipinto è una precoce espressione dell’immaginario della zingara dedita al furto ed anche ammaliatrice, capace di incantare ed ingannare.

Nikolai Blokhin, 1968 | Pittore impressionista
Nato a San Pietroburgo, in Russia, il maestro Николай Блохин è emerso come uno degli artisti più importanti del suo tempo.
Formatosi prima presso la scuola d'arte distrettuale prima di entrare al Repin Institute, Blokhin ha raggiunto una solida base accademica nell'arte che può essere rintracciata, ammirata e interpretata oggi in alcuni dei famosi maestri russi dell'inizio del XX secolo.
Mentre coltivava gli ideali realizzati da molti dei suoi predecessori nella teoria dell'arte russa, la ricerca di Blokhins verso un linguaggio espressivo tradizionale lo consumò nei suoi primi anni accademici.
Fu solo quando entrò all'Accademia delle Arti che iniziò a cercare i canoni di coloro che rompevano con la tradizione e sconvolgevano le visioni artistiche tematiche, che trovò il proprio stile distinto.
