“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” - Edgar Degas

We are surrounded by images and are so used to them it is hard to imagine a time when an image was truly something special. In the 15th and 16 century, the old masters enriched our world with some of the most beautiful paintings ever seen. When you examine these works of art from hundreds of years ago, you will still be amazed by their craftsmanship. Whether it is the wonderful and weird details of Hieronymus Bosch, the expressionism of Rubens or the use of colour by Andrea Mantegna, there is always something new to see.  We all love those great works of art when we watch them in museums. Incredible paintings full of detail, if only you could bring them to life from within the comfort of your own home. Well, with Size of Art you can! In my posts, I pick a painting and tell something interesting about it. The images are all high-resolution so you can examine them in great detail without losing quality. Enjoy!
