This is the story of one of the most famous works in modern art. Some call it revolutionary, others say it is nonsense, but whatever your opinion of it, the story behind it may surprise you.
It takes us back to the early 20th century and the beginning of the avant-garde movements in the United States, where art was to become democratic. But of course some people challenged these ideas, and at the same time raised questions about the very nature of art.

    Exquisite.... .absolutely breathtaking! Anyone who does not believe "the" Pieta was God - imspired, has never had a hammer and chisel in his hand, set before a block of marble! Can you imagine? "Look, Mom, what I made out of that block of matble in our backyard!" I love that you mentioned the stations......because, the Pieta , truly, does not make sense if you take it out of context. Why is Mary not hysterical, begging God to save her Son? She knows he will!!!!!!!

    I"m bummed that Carel hasn't put anything up on youtube lately. I appreciate his knowledge and I''ve learned a lot from his information of each work of art he has commented on- many of which I have made trips to see. But I don't know anything about instagram or care about facebook, so I guess I'll have to plod on without Carel's excellent insights. :(

    Of ALL I've seen on this Portrait...NO 1 has picked up on the fact, that she is wearing..A BELT...IF she Was Pregnant, she would Not be wearing a leather belt. Nor Does she have the increasing bust of a pregnant woman. Looking at the Large pile of clothe on the floor, pulling up All that Heavy clothe, to give a look at .."see all the fur lining my skirts(s)" , as u can also see a blue skirt underneath. That WOULD make a LARGE bulk in front of her. Plus the large elaborate bed behind them also would have spoken of their wealth. The Oranges, would they not have been available Only to the wealthy that could afford "Orangeries" to grow them in?
