    Brotherhood of Inspiration: Unraveling the Pre-Raphaelite Aesthetics

    August 29, 2023 / 0 Comments

    In Victorian England, with the country swept up in the Industrial Revolution, the Pre-Raphaelites, close to William Morris’ Arts and Crafts movement, yearned for a return to bygone values.

    Nicolas Poussin – The Master of a Pictorial Universe with a Richness of Inspiration and Spiritual Depth

    November 15, 2022 / 0 Comments

    Nicolas Poussin(1594 - 1665) was undoubtedly a highly significant master of the historical genre. He shaped its aesthetics which, regrettably, subsequently became regarded as a set of hard-and-fast rules (a trap which the Russian followers of the founder of classicism also fell into).
