@Lottibooks tbh, not an ai user haha!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

niche question here-Does anyone own or have access to a copy of Tobias Calinski's catull in bild und ton untersuchungen zur catull-rezeption in malerei und komposition? I have been reading it on google books but the one page I need is not in the preview! any help appreciated!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@Lottibooks shame nearest library to me that has it is in New Zealand🤣

@PeterJones40 Beautiful painting! I always love Etty's works! I believe Etty was a actually British artist!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

One of my personal favourites is Augustus Leopold Egg. Also a big fan of Philip Hermogenes Calderon. They were both great artists!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@da3m0ne Yes definitely! That's a good idea, and it works well for that since most of the episodes are stand alone (with some exceptions like USS Callister: Into Infinity)!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@da3m0ne It was for sure! I've just finished the new series and loved it!!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@da3m0ne Thank you!! will try this for sure!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

may be a long shot, but could anyone please help me identify an ancient Greek relief depicted within a late 19th century painting? I'm pretty sure its not from the Parthenon but would still love to find out - spent a while looking already but maybe another perspective would help!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@redwithoutwhy This looks amazing, will have to check it out!!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@J_Green_505 Yeah weird, I think that's meant to be princess Sabra but didnt notice the leash - apparently (according to google) she is taking back to town😆Going to do a little further reading around Saint George and the Dragon as this is quite interesting!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

I've not come across this painting before and it is super cool!! It is Paolo Uccello's c.1470 painting, Saint George and the Dragon!!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

This is such a cool painting that I hadn't come across until yesterday, so I thought that I would also share it here!!

[19th century Painting! @LordFredericLe1]

This is William Strang's stunning and incredible 1899 painting, The Temptation!! I've never seen this painting before and I already love it, its beautiful! #Art #Fineart #Painting #19thcentury #Victorian #Painter #Artist

I often chat about my research to my dad but he can only seem to remember to say "history" 😂

It’s worth doing a PhD just to watch your parents try to explain your dissertation to their friends

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

This painting is The Calling of Saint Matthew by Juan de Pareja, dated 1661! The composition reminds me of Millais' 1848/1849 painting, Isabella!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

Can an #twitterhistorians please help me in identifying a painting within a painting? I think it may be an early Renaissance work featured within the painting!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@PreRaphs @INCSA_19thC @durham_uni Was such a great paper! and thanks for answering my question relating to Holman Hunt's frames!!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@alvantiques best of luck with your search!!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

I'm currently looking through the Burne-Jones Catalogue Raisonne and found a really cool study he made of Vittore Carpaccio's 1502 painting, St. George and the Dragon!!

[Thomas Dunwell @TomD3SG]

@alvantiques Wow its a stunning piece! Although I think it may not be directly in a Pre-Raphaelite vain, but more so associated with panel paintings of religious icons also popular during the nineteenth century! Maybe looking at these kind of artists could help narrow it down!? just an idea!
