i got a poster of monet's vewnice twilight in my apartment, its like the one artwork they had at the poster shop that isnt absurdly cliched or pathetically representational. impressionism is kewl but its far from monet's best and monet is a couple tiers below cezanne anyway..... some of cezanne's landscapes are awesome, you can just see the faint glimmer of what would eventually become abstraction & esp cubism

at about 3:33 in that movement you can hear a really beautiful theme. its a shame bruckner gave up on that symphony and threw it out, hence it being symphony no. 0. with a little work it could have been great

is bosch too GBS for this crowd? because his imagination is incredibly remarkable given his period.

JMW Turner is also pretty forward looking in some of his paintings and sometimes has a modern look in an era pre-impressionism:

1844: Rain Steam and Speed the Great Western Railway


1836: Wreckers Coast of Northumberland


1838:Ovid Banished from Rome

reminded me a bit of edward hopper.

fun fact; steve martin is a huge art collector and has a lot of edward hopper. he narrated something on him for the smithsonian and lent the works he owns for display

you know, The Rise and Fall of Los Angeles always bothered me a little because each image wasnt from the same perspective, but seeing now that its supposed to be a mirror piece to The Course of Empire makes it all better and more good
