I’m very sorry but I can no longer be a part of this website for the time being - I love being able to share beautiful art, but to be here feels like being complicit. The below

Until we meet again. ❤️

St Stephen’s holy relics lie in the Church of #SanGiorgioMaggiore in #Venice and outside you can see the statue of the first martyr of Christianity. Do you see the rocks he was stoned to death? #santostefano #StStephensDay
I love Sebastiano del Piombo - A Venetian artist by origin but heavily influenced by the Florentines - a new biography sheds light: finestresullarte.info/en/boo…
The Adoration of the Shepherds by Giovanni Girolamo Savoldo (c. 1480 – 1548) from the church of San Giobbe is the artist’s sole surviving painting in Venice. It’s now being restored by @saveveniceinc!

When Anthony van Dyck visited painter Sofonisba Anguissola in 1625, she was (she told him) 96 years old. He says she was still sharp as a tack! He drew her & then made this painting. Today was her day.
