@watery_day The connection between the unicorn and the rainbow likely comes from Christianity, where unicorns are a symbol for Jesus (so in turn there's an interesting overlap of the unicorn in the lap of a virgin/Mary and Jesus), and the rainbow is associated with both God and Jesus.

@RohanGreyFA reminds me a lot of Otto Marseus van Schrieck; here his Thistles and Butterflies (loving the frog in the auctioned painting tho)

The supporters of the Gamäldegalerie Berlin are struggling to find sponsors for the new Filipino Lippi frame. It is a really significant project and will enhance the display one of the very best Florentine paintings anywhere.

[Gaga Daily @gagadaily]

Today in 2014: Lady Gaga arrives in Athens, Greece for the ARTPOP Ball tour.

“When I landed in Greece, I wanted to land as the Venus,” Gaga said. “So we created this on an aeroplane. I’m wearing two metal seashells that we just had. And then I’ve got a thong underneath, and I believe that this is some sort of beach situation that I had with me.”

Mütterliche Gefühle mussten sich in der Kunst erst entwickeln: Im ausgehenden Mittelalter waren sie noch verhalten, später im Barock kaum zu bremsen. Zum #Muttertag zeigen vier Italiener Herz – jeder auf seine Art.👉 https://t.co/XFCQAfbO6i
