Vallotton is one of those artists I'd recommend to filmmakers, game designers, animators etc if you want to invigorate straightforward scenes. Look at his lighting in these woodcuts, the slightly askew perspective, the unnecessary & vital elements (the cat's touch) that humanise. pic.twitter.com/fBZl122I80

I've been writing about obelisks and their theft (or rather Muhammad Ali Pasha's gifting of three 'Cleopatra's Needles' to Paris, London & NYC) for the imperialism/corrupt dictatorships chapter of the architecture of tyranny. Can't stop thinking of this illustration. pic.twitter.com/gihHmMQa0d

I hadn't seen the art of Charles Pears (1873–1958) beyond his railway and London Underground illustrations before but his naval and war paintings are stunning. pic.twitter.com/1qWFO7ZjiI

Writing about the survival of Notre-Dame down the centuries, after the devastating news last night. Here are prints of the cathedral by Kiyoshi Saitō (1907–1997) that convey the mystery & awe of the building. pic.twitter.com/UQIIqvMSg2

Few joys as deep as introducing your kid to things that fascinated you as a child, and which your folks showed you, and seeing their eyes light up. pic.twitter.com/S7LtBCJ8QP
