Sky – The remnants

Dear followers, in these skies will not find any angel,
But if you observe some clouds, may find some remnants of cotton, of their clothes and their wings, before they descended to our minds.

  1. Excelente muestra. La imagen que escogiste de Delacroix es mi preferida.

    • Tu elección es para una acuarela muy contrastada, como también suelen ser los óleos de este autor. Los oscuros casi llegan el negro que suele ser tabú para muchos acuarelistas.
      Realmente el trato que le da a la obra conviene con el paisaje agreste. Las manchas que describen el cielo realmente son un presagio de la abstracción que en ese momento todavía era desconocida. Su impetuoso toque de pincel evoca las nubes con una espontaneidad impresionante. Gracias por tu visita, y muchas gracias por opinar. Saludos cordiales ❤

    • Oh Rainee, I understand you really like to look to the clouds. This is the true meaning of this post. This piece of Whistler, if we would forget the allusion of an small boat, it is a wonderful work almost abstract and minimal. I’m grateful for friendly comment. Best wishes and have a nice day ❤

  4. ¡Es preciosa la recopilación! Sin duda me quedé maravillada nada más ver la primera imagen, la pintura de Constable, pero el cielo McNeil no se queda atrás. Y la de Ruskin también me encanta porque aunque ha sabido captar la belleza de una futura tormenta… No se, ahora que lo pienso tal vez soy muy clásica en mis elecciones jajaja

    • Hola Sara, en casi todos las materias, a lo que ha persistido en el tiempo le llamamos algo clásico. Quizá sea una forma de garantizar una mínima calidad, pero con tu permiso creo que tus elecciones sobre todo son de preferencia para lo abstracto. Muchas gracias por tus visitas y por tu comentario, Cielo. (sin nubes en la cabeza).
