Icon painting in Bulgaria is closely connected with the historical destiny of the Bulgarian people and with Christianity adopted in 865 as official state religion. That was the time of the emergence of a new pictorial system, interpreted and evolved on the basis of a rich ancient artistic heritage of the Graeco-Roman and Thracian cultures, but subordinated to the traditions and lifestyle of the proto-Bulgarian and Slavonic tribes, a fact which makes it so original. The ceramic icons made in the late 9th and early 10th century in Preslav, the capital of the First Bulgarian state and the surrounding monasteries reveal the ... |

Master of the sublime: The essential Impressionist. ... No other artist, apart from J.M.W. Turner, tried as hard as Claude Monet (1840 - 1926) to capture light itself on canvas.

It could be said that Monet reinvented the possibilities of color. Whether it was through his early interest in Japanese prints, his time as a conscript in the dazzling light of Algeria, or his personal acquaintance with the ... |
