My favorite of Turner's. The ghostly apperance of theTemeraire is beautiful

The emotion on her husband's face is well captured, and having him in the shadows really makes this piece.

The Penitent Magdalen in c/[email protected]

Great piece, I like how she's turning away from the viewer

Phoenician pro-tip: crack your car windows to avoid getting into a broiling oven after work.

Blake is nightmare fuel, and I love it!

A stolen painting from UofA in Tucson was recovered during an estate sale. Family said it was hung behind the bedroom door so no one ever saw it except the couple who stole it.

I like the back to back portraits. Highlights different values in aesthetics. Also Hans Holbein!

As a refugee who migrated because they took away Boost, I'm very excited for this!
