Smokin' 'ot, Van der Ploos!

Wonder if the Beefeaters used the same tailor as this 'ere groom. Give 'im an 'alberd an' a tower ta guard, and it'll all be Wonderland.

Reminds me, I wanted to watch Tim's Vermeer - the movie about someone today trying to re-create a Vermeer. I mean with ArtRage it's fairly easy, but he was trying to figure out what Vermeer actually did. Damasocl posted about it a couple months ago or so. So I ought to be able to rent it now.

Excellent choices: three engaging Antonio Mancini's including an exquisite loose self-portrait and Jan Van Eyck's most famous one, a top master of the absolutely great Flemish painting school who invented and superbly introduced the oil painting in visual art!

P.S. If You're curious to know something about the peculiar character and painter Antonio Mancini was, then You may read these articles to better know of him (in English):

If anyone may wonder how neo-realism or Pasolini might have popped out in our peninsula, I may be wrong, but I guess roots and sources could be the same than previously nourished also Caravaggio and Antonio Mancini or his apparent contrary, Giovanni Boldini. All of them were also unbelievable natural talents (almost by birth) as much as highly professional fine art masters.

Right! Arnolfini, certainly a quite important and rich guy, and a Medici agent in northern Europe. Flemish paintings came before the Dutch paintings, since a town in the Flanders like Bruges (Northern Belgium today) became very rich and important one, as it was the case of many Italian towns during the Renaissance and before. So no confusion should be made between Flemish and Dutch, although their languages are similar enough to understand each other. They were politically and chronologically separated entities in history and art and they still are.

That painting was and is considered absolutely amazing also for the incredible, perfecty distorted reflex of the two spouses on the curved mirror behind them. HAVE A LOOK!
