Johannes Vermeer, The Milkmaid, 1660, oil on canvas, 46 x 41 cm, Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
Johannes Vermeer, 1632–1675, created paintings that are among the most beloved and revered images in the history of art. Although only about 36 of his paintings survive, these rare works are among the greatest treasures in the world’s finest museums. Vermeer began his career in the early 1650’s by painting biblical and mythological scenes, but most of his later paintings, the ones for which he is most famous, depict scenes of daily life in interior settings. These works are remarkable for their purity of light and form, qualities that convey a serene, timeless sense of dignity. They invite you to contemplate on the one hand and find a symbolic and allegorical meaning on the other. The milkmaid in this picture carefully measures the milk into an earthenware bowl. She is fully absorbed in her activity. The milkmaid has a strong physical presence, created through the extraordinarily subtle use of light and shade. The low vantage point and pyramidal composition lend monumentality and a sense of dignity to the figure. Vermeer restricted his palette mainly to the primary colors of red, blue and yellow. He displays his ability to depict the textures of an earthenware bowl, a stoneware jug, a brass bucket, a wicker basket, a table cloth, a wooden foot stove and a fresh loaf of bread to perfection. Although traditional depictions of milkmaids and kitchen maids often contained romantic allusions it seems Vermeer rather wanted to pay tribute to the virtues of temperance, purity and hard work. Let me know which Vermeer painting is your favorite.

Posting this cake again and thinking I need to get back to doing more painted cakes. Seeing all the gorgeous painted cakes by @my.happychaos has inspired me to revisit some of my more intricate work. So before the summer is over, I'm thinking I'll be doing a week or so of fine art-inspired cakes, maybe I'll even make it a collab

À quoi bon expliquer une œuvre d'art?
解釋藝術作品有何裨益?
_
法國高三升大學的聯考和其他國家最不同的地方就是我們會考哲學
_
小時候不太懂我們只是高中生為什麼要學哲學
但現在想想其實可能是最有用的一門科目之一
_
因為這一節課更多的是告訴我們
無論看什麼問題都要有批判性有自己的觀點
從不同的角度來看世界不僅僅是非黑即白
在四個小時內都會圍繞著主題闡述對立的兩個觀點
_
今年法國的哲學考試題目很有趣:A quoi bon expliquer une œuvre d'art?
解釋藝術作品有何裨益?
_
覺得這個題目很有意思,也很值得探究。
藝術真的需要去被解釋嗎?不同身分背景的人眼中看到的世界一定是不同的,每個人的感受都不同去解釋反而是畫了一個框框讓人欣賞的躡手躡腳,藝術本來就是一種最純粹的感受和快樂不是嗎?
_
但很多時候一件藝術品反應的不僅僅是畫家當下的感受,而是一個大時代的縮影。所以畫家畫中的每個細節其實都在書寫歷史的一部分,如果不知道這些歷史文化真的算是看得懂這幅藝術品嗎?不是很可惜?
_
你呢?你覺得藝術作品有必要被解釋嗎?

Johannes Vermeer, The Geographer, 1669, Oil on canvas, 53 x 47 cm, Städel Museum, Frankfurt am Main.
Johannes Vermeer, 1632–1675, created paintings that are among the most beloved and revered images in the history of art. Although only about 36 of his paintings survive, these rare works are among the greatest treasures in the world’s finest museums. Vermeer began his career in the early 1650’s by painting biblical and mythological scenes, but most of his later paintings, the ones for which he is most famous, depict scenes of daily life in interior settings. These works are remarkable for their purity of light and form, qualities that convey a serene, timeless sense of dignity. They invite you to contemplate on the one hand and find a symbolic and allegorical meaning on the other. The Geographer is commonly considered a pendant to The Astronomer. Both paintings convey the theme of scholarly inquiry and discovery. The impact of the sciences expanded significantly in 17th century Holland. This situation is reflected in the way that numerous pictures of scholars in their studies were made. Some experts believe it was Anthoni van Leeuwenhoek who posed for both The Geographer and The Astronomer. Van Leeuwenhoek was well known for his discoveries with the microscope. Although no documents exist linking the scientist and Vermeer, they were both born in Delft in the same year. Vermeer gives us an intimate view of the scientist's thought process. Dressed in a Japanese-style robe, he is surrounded by cartographic objects that express the theme: a sea chart, globe, dividers, square and a cross-staff.
