When little Winter Josephine was born, everyone who saw her said, “She looks so mad,” because she was a newborn baby with a frown. Her mother Hollie Wallis thought that her baby girl could’ve been thinking, “‘I was comfortable in there. Put me back!” But her grumpy face made people smile, especially her mother, who went through a scary time while carrying and delivering Winter.
We at Bright Side are happy to tell you the story of this bundle of joy with an angry face and hope that her story will carve a smile into yours.
Being pregnant with Winter was a pleasant surprise.
It was hard for Hollie Wallis to believe her eyes when her pregnancy test kit appeared positive. This was because she’d had a couple of surgeries in the previous year to remove a large mass from her uterus so she didn’t expect to get pregnant again. She was blessed with 2 boys from a previous relationship but her husband didn’t have any children, which was why she was ecstatic at the news. However, she had spent $50 on pregnancy tests just to confirm, all of which showed the same hopeful results.
The doctor had some bad news.
At first, everything went pretty smoothly and the pregnancy was no different than her earlier ones. That was until she went to the doctor to get an ultrasound, when the doctor couldn’t detect any amniotic fluid. This was very worrisome because it’s this protective liquid that serves as a cushion for the growing fetus. Hollie’s heart sank.
She was diagnosed with oligohydramnios, which is a condition where there’s a low level of amniotic fluid during pregnancy. On the second ultrasound, to her relief, they were able to find fluid pockets and the baby appeared healthy on the monitor. She was booked to go to the hospital the following Monday. But when she woke up on Sunday morning, she felt like something was off and rushed to the hospital.
Hollie went into an unexpected emergency situation.
Hollie was right to trust her motherly instinct because it was an emergency situation. She had to undergo a C-section immediately. Without even having the chance to talk to her husband, Hollie was wheeled off to the operating room once the paperwork was signed and she was told of the risks of having a C-section. Just imagine how scared she must have been, especially since this would be her first experience with this type of birth.
Winter’s birth was a miracle.
With her husband waiting outside, not knowing that she was even in surgery at the time, Hollie silently wished for her little one to be okay. Against all odds, Winter Josephine was safely delivered. She was very tiny for a baby born after her due date, but she was healthy. The tough baby greeted her family with intense eyebrows as if she was incredibly inconvenienced by them all.
Babies born with so little amniotic fluid are at risk of having a disability after birth, even with physiotherapy. Some babies don’t even survive while others may suffer from incomplete lung maturation. But Winter was a survivor! She was tough, just like her facial expression.
Winter survived and continues to make people’s days better.
Hollie put Winter’s photos up on Facebook to get help on how to photograph her since she always looks so grumpy. A lot of people were thankful to see Winter’s photos because they made their days a little brighter.
Her photos were also put up on Instagram because Hollie wanted her to be a bow rep, but her unique face made it hard to do so. However, Winter’s photos continue to give joy to people, especially with Hollie’s sassy captions.

Fantastic Mr. Fox. It’s my favorite book of all time, but that movie is incredible. Wes Anderson just made it his own thing. The movie has so much more character. Mr. Fox in the movie is so charming and intelligent, but also 10 times more arrogant than he was in the books. But he makes up for it in the end. Also, his backstory with the wolf is amazing. Mrs. Fox is also so much goddamn better. And don’t even get me started on my favorites Ash and Kristofferson. © oh-lawd-hes-coming

Many families have their own cute traditions. Some pass on family jewelry from generation to generation, others call babies certain names that are rooted in their family, and some regularly travel to places that are especially dear to their hearts. But there is another category of people — they carefully store their clothes for future generations, giving their children and grandchildren an opportunity to try on outfits that have survived for decades.
We at Bright Side went through hundreds of photographs that depict different family generations wearing the same outfits, and we think the ones we chose are insanely adorable.
“After several unsuccessful attempts to choose a wedding dress, my mom offered me her own, which was made in 1980. We updated it a bit, and here is the result.”
“All the girls in our family, from 4 generations, wearing the same clothes and standing in the same part of the house in 1970, 1983, 2001, and 2017”
“My grandmother’s festive dress: My mom went to her graduation wearing it in 1991, and I wore it in 2017.”
“This dress is over 45 years old. Of course, the length is extreme, but it was fashionable in the 1970s. My mom always thought she needed to lose weight, can you imagine?”
“My mom at her 3rd birthday in 1979, and my daughter at the same age in 2020. She is wearing the same dress that was lovingly restored.”
“I recreated my grandpa’s photo from 1977 wearing his actual shirt.”
“I confiscated this dress from my mom. It’s about 40 years old, but I love to wear it at work. It’s comfortable, made of a nice fabric, and has pockets — just beautiful!”
“My son and I in the same costume, 30 years apart”
“My father and I in 1980, and my son and I in 2018”
“I felt something indescribable when I got married wearing my mother’s dress, which also belonged to my grandmother.”

“My mom saved my sweater from 1989. Now, my son is wearing it 30 years later.”
“My dad wore this 40 years ago. This leather jacket looks like new! We, his daughters, didn’t wear it, so it’s waiting in the wardrobe until the grandkids grow older.”

In November 2019, all the fluffy creatures (basically dozens of cats and dogs) who lived in an animal shelter in Minnesota found new homes over just one weekend. The folks from our article couldn’t stand idly on the sidelines and also got pets who were in need of love and care and their stories confirm that there’s still a place for kindness in this world.
Here, at Bright Side, we want to say thank you to all of these wonderful people who’ve saved animals and given them a new and happy life.

“I just picked him up from the shelter and I’m taking him home.”

When asking rich people what most important bit of advice they would offer to poor people, a wealthy man advised, quite simply and concisely, “Learn to lie.” I thought he was satirizing rich people, but no, he went on to expound on his thoughts a little, just enough to know he was being earnest. That stuck with me. I started lying on job applications, which, in all my years I’d never done before, and I got a job right away. From there, I climbed out of homelessness. It’s much easier and more productive to lie than to explain things that have happened to you to people who don’t care. © SamGlass / Reddit

That ’ s why Bright Side decided to make a compilation of tips that will help you to get everybody ’ s attention thanks to this timeless color .

Choose the shade of red lipstick according to your skin color .

Avoid colors that rival red , such as fuchsia .

Red lipstick is one of those beauty products that can really transform your face. This timeless color has been a symbol of power, class, elegance, and freedom. Unlike other makeup items, red lipstick is versatile as it works both when wearing basic outfits or when going to the fanciest parties. But no matter the occasion, you can be sure that wearing the stuff will make your lips the center of attention.
When pulling off red lipstick, you need more than just a little attitude. That’s why Bright Side decided to make a compilation of tips that will help you to get everybody’s attention thanks to this timeless color.
1. Choose the shade of red lipstick according to your skin color.
For lighter skin tones with pink undertones, it’s best to go with something closer to a raspberry-red. On the other hand, if your skin tone is on the warmer side with golden undertones, it’s better to choose a red-orange shade.
2. Mix different shades of red.
As you may have already picked up on from the previous point, red has a whole range of shades, from orange to burgundy. If you are looking for a totally new and unique shade, get creative and try mixing the lipsticks you already have at home.
3. Avoid shiny, glossy lipsticks.
For a lasting effect, opt for dry lipsticks over those with gloss since they easily smudge and don’t last as long.
4. Exfoliate your lips.
Your mouth will be getting all the attention since it’ll be your look’s featured area, so make sure you remove any dry skin or impurities beforehand by using a natural exfoliant. You can use a mix of sugar and honey or sugar and olive oil. Mix the ingredients, massage the resulting ointment in a circular motion using your fingertips, rinse, and then apply some moisturizer.
5. Line your lips then carefully fill them in.
Outlining your lips with lip liner is an important step that many people skip. Start by tracing an “X” under your Cupid’s bow, then continue contouring along the lip line and finally fill in the rest of the lips. All these steps are to be carried out using the same pencil. Doing so will actually make your makeup last longer.
6. Apply the lipstick with a lip brush.
Although it might be tempting to apply the lipstick directly onto the lips, using a lip brush will give you the perfect results you had in mind when you first planned your outfit.
7. Remove any excess color.
Your lipstick should stay on your lips, not on glasses you drink from (or cheeks you kiss). Make sure to remove excess makeup with a napkin so that the color doesn’t stick to your teeth, glassware, or silverware when eating.
8. Don’t overdo it with the eyeliner and mascara.
Opt for a more subtle style for the rest of your face, particularly your eyes. Use only mascara and a thin eyeliner to draw as little attention to them as possible. Don’t let them get overshadowed by your lipstick, but don’t bother with extravagant, colorful eye shadows.
9. Make your lips and nails match.
Classic red goes best when worn on both lips and nails, so don’t forget to apply red polish to your nails to complete the look.
10. Choose an outfit that draws attention to your face.
When picking out your clothes, try to use neutral colors (like beige, white, or gray) to make your face the center of your look. Black dresses and red lips are a match made in heaven. That might be why it’s a classic and timeless outfit. Avoid colors that rival red, such as fuchsia.

We are used to the fact that cats either peacefully purr on our laps or don’t pay any attention to us at all and live strictly for their own pleasure. And dogs are just always happy to see us. But sometimes, system errors occur, and our pets start to behave strangely. What else would explain a dog trying to sit on a wall. And it’s better to not even mention cats who try to turn into bats.

There’s something about bringing some green inside to brighten up your home and workplace. Indoor plants are popular because they seem relatively easy to take care of. That’s true, providing that you know how to best take care of your plant. The most important thing is that you understand what your plant is telling you when it’s showing spots and marks on its leaves.
Here at Bright Side we made a compilation of 8 signs that show you need to take care of your plant differently. See which picture matches your plant best and find out how you can help them flourish again.
1. Entirely brown leaves
Entirely brown leaves are usually a natural part of the plant’s growth and aging process, unrelated to the care of the plant. If it just started with a brown tip at first, this is probably a sign of under-watering (see the next point).
What to do: When leaves are fully brown and dead, there is no need to try to save them anymore. However, they do still use a lot of energy. To distribute the energy to the other leaves, the dead ones should be removed.
2. Brown tips of the leaves
This is usually a sign that your plant did not receive enough water, which can have multiple causes: You are not watering your plants frequently enough.
The soil is of poor quality and doesn't hold on to the water well enough.
The roots may be damaged, because they were overwatered before or because the pot is too small.
What to do: If you are not at home a lot, but you still want your plants to receive sufficient water throughout the day, there are a few tricks that can help your plant get a constant flow of water when in need. Put a wet sponge at the bottom of the pot: this will absorb any excess water and release it when the plant is in need of the water.
Bury a water bottle that has small holes in it in the soil: you can fill the bottle up with water. The plant will take water from the reservoir whenever it is in need of it.
3. Browning in the middle of the leaves
This is usually a sign of overwatering. Soil that is wet all the time creates a soggy environment, which is the perfect environment for fungal pathogens to grow in. This disease shows up in brown spots in the middle of the leaf and will propagate further away from the middle in the later stages.
What to do: Coffee filters will allow the excess water to drain through, while keeping the soil in place. So you’re left with no mess and a healthy plant.
4. The lower leaves are turning yellow
If your plant is mature, it will happen that some of them turn yellow and then fall off. However, if it happens in large numbers, something is probably up. It can be caused by a wide range of factors related to the environment in which your plant is placed, like too shady a position, too cold a temperature, a sudden drop in temperature, or exposure to drought. Check the location of your plant and try to find the perfect spot.
Tip: Don’t move your plants around too much.
What to do: Plants acclimate themselves to their surroundings fairly slowly. If you can, don’t move your plant around too much. If you do have to move the plant to a better spot, take it to the new area for an hour a day. Slowly increase the amount of time it is left in the new area until it has fully adjusted.
5. Dark spots with yellow margins on the leaves
Usually this means that your plant has fungal leaf spot. Pale colored spots may also develop if plants get too much sun.
What to do: When you see the spots developing, isolate the pot immediately to prevent the fungus from spreading to your other plants. Remove any leaf that has been affected and let the plant recover.
6. Lack of leaf color on the tips of leaves
Pale green or even yellow leaves, together with poor growth, may be due to a shortage of nutrients. Most of those nutrients can be found in fertilizers.
What to do: Add eggshells or the water from boiled eggs to the soil. Adding the water from boiled eggs will boost your plants’ calcium and potassium levels.
7. Very small leaves
Very small leaves can indicate that your plant needs more sunlight. Naturally, you should first check if your plant is indeed in a dark spot in the house. If this is the case, try to move it closer to a window or a lighter area.
What to do: If your plant was already in a sunny spot and the leaves are still very small, you might need to dust your plant. A layer of dust on the leaves will block sunlight and reduce the plant’s ability to photosynthesize. Using fluffy gloves can make dusting without damaging the plant very easy.
8. The ends of the leaves are curling in
Some of the most popular houseplants come from tropical or subtropical regions where they flourish in the humid underbrush of a larger forest. Plants in an environment where the atmospheric humidity is too low often show signs of curling leaves.
What to do: Move your plants away from air vents. Even if the overall humidity is fine (around 50%), your plant will still suffer if it is put too close to a heater or an air vent.
Bonus: Plants that need minimal care
1. The spider plant
2. Rubber plant
3. ZZ plant
4. Aloe Vera
5. Snake plant

12 Not-So-Dull Notes About Paintings From an Art Expert The strange desire of Mondrian to remove all the extra details from his paintings lead to the result that , at some point , there were only 3 colors and lines left .
Why these colors , you might be wondering ?
It ’ s simple : they are the main colors in the palette .
When you mix them in different proportions , you can get an infinite number of shades .
And this painting became extremely popular in 1965 because Yves Saint-Laurent designed 6 dresses when he saw the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ work of art .
Everyone romanticizes this painting even though some suggest it really isn ’ t about romantic love .
First , look at the hands of the lady and the way they ’ re trying to pull away the man ’ s hands .
Second , the lady is in a kneeled pose which looks like she can ’ t say “ no ” in this situation .
Do you agree with this ?

This is a classic Dutch flower still life .
The artist traveled a lot in order to draw rare flowers and this bouquet is actually not a real one , because the flowers you see in it grow at different times of the year .
This is why it took @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — he wasn ’ t just fooling around .
You can see it in the Alte Pinakothek Museum in Munich .
Everyone has probably seen this statue and you might think that this is a very famous athlete , but no .
This is a generalized image that was purposefully deprived of any individuality .
At the time , the personalities were not at the forefront , which can be seen in all of the art of Ancient Greece .
Every sculptor was looking for their own universal formula .
By the way @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of bronze wasn ’ t preserved , unfortunately .
So we only have the Roman copies made of marble .
The best one is located in the Palazzo Massimo in Rome .
The main message of the painting is obvious : getting old sucks and trying to look young when you ’ re not , also sucks .
This painting belongs to the genre of the Baroque vanitas .
It ’ s about how fast life is and the fact that death is inevitable .
So , let ’ s take a quick @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one hand , the lady is holding a rose .
But in the other , she has a fleur d ’ orange bouquet — the traditional attribute of a bride .
This is so ironic , it ’ s hard to believe it ’ s real !
Also , there is a not-so-subtle reference to vanitas — a dead bird on the mirror .
You can think about life and see this painting in the Pushkin Museum , in Moscow .
Have you heard about the era of the Northern Renaissance ?

The painting shows a wedding .
At the time , you could get married at home or in a church with 2 witnesses .
If you ’ re wondering where the witnesses are , you should take a look in the mirror behind the couple .
By the way , one of the people in the reflection is probably Jan van Eyck himself — a genius move .
But the artist couldn ’ t help but leave another mark .
A small caption above @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jan van Eyck was here .
And how do you like the small dog ?
It is a symbol of loyalty .
This masterpiece is in the National Gallery in London .
When you see a Vincent van Gogh painting , put on your “ smart ” face and say that it ’ s post-impressionism .
This way , you will instantly be accepted into the art expert community .
This is a real place with a cafe in a French town called Arles , where the artist went not long before he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that around 100 years later , this place was restored and made to look like it does in the painting .
You probably also noticed the starry night : this is what Vincent van Gogh is known for .
By the way , from an astronomy standpoint , everything here is perfect .
The artists that actually do their research are genius .
You can see the deep colors and this starry night in the Kröller-Müller Museum in the Netherlands .
This is one of the earliest works of Bosch .
He did @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stories and all the other well-known works that later made him famous .
In this one , there are some weird-looking animals , a crowd of people who ’ ve stopped to take a look at the show , and , to their surprise , a magician is performing tricks .
The viewers have mixed feelings : some of them like what they see , some are frowning in disbelief .
But look at the man standing behind everyone .
He is definitely the magician ’ s accomplice : while the people are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , this guy is stealing someone ’ s wallet .
An exact copy of the painting is in the Municipal Museum in Saint-Germain-en-Laye , but the original painting was , unfortunately , lost .
Here you can see an old port in the French town of Havre , the hometown of the artist .
At first sight , it ’ s , well , 50 shades of grey , nothing special , but this painting changed the game .
It is believed that this was the “ Impression ” that gave the name @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Basically , it ’ s about giving up the academic way of painting , and choosing to picture the fleeting moment or reality .
At first , a lot of people didn ’ t like the new style and they thought that being able to see Monet ’ s brushstrokes was terrible .
But later , the artist had followers all around the world .
Actually , Monet did a series of paintings about the Havre port .
This one is located in the Marmottan Monet Museum in Paris .
As you can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ era : everything is very bright , people still look like people , but they are too attractive .
Botticelli drew all 3 months of spring here just because he could .
On the right , the god of wind , Zephyros , is taking the forest nymph Chloris somewhere where they will marry and she will become the goddess Flora .
This is the impersonation of March , the unceremonious type .
The central character is Venus .
Ancient Romans celebrated her ascension in April , so the second month of spring @ @ @ @ @ @ @ final month is May : on the left , May is poking at something with a stick .
He is shown as Mercury , the son of the goddess Maia .
He uses a stick to make the clouds go away , because if there ’ s no sunlight , nothing will grow .
You can see this painting in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence .
Gainsborough ’ s favorite genre was landscape painting but , unfortunately , it wasn ’ t very profitable , and it didn ’ t make him famous @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Aristocrats have always loved pompous rococo portraits .
So , Gainsborough added his favorite rural areas into these portraits inventing a new genre that quickly became popular among wealthy people .
The people in the painting are looking at us and seem as if they are inviting us to have a little chat .
There is no glamour of the classic French rococo .
But details like the hunter ’ s suit , his rifle , and his wife ’ s big dress mean that these people are wealthy .
In the background @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sheep which are the dowry of Mrs. Andrews .
And the oak behind the people is a symbol of the well-being of their dynasty .
You can see it at the London National Gallery .

Viktoria is an art student and she has an entertaining Telegram channel called “Chtozakartina.” On this channel, she talks about famous paintings in a fascinating manner. She not only discusses the paintings of the Renaissance era, but also ones that were done by modern artists.
We at Bright Side took a dive into the world of art that became quite a bit more interesting thanks to the way Viktoria talks about it.
Composition with Red, Blue and Yellow, Piet Mondrian, 1930
The strange desire of Mondrian to remove all the extra details from his paintings lead to the result that, at some point, there were only 3 colors and lines left. Why these colors, you might be wondering? It’s simple: they are the main colors in the palette. When you mix them in different proportions, you can get an infinite number of shades. And this painting became extremely popular in 1965 because Yves Saint-Laurent designed 6 dresses when he saw the inimitable and eternal style potential in this work of art.
The Kiss, Gustav Klimt, 1907–1908
Everyone romanticizes this painting even though some suggest it really isn’t about romantic love. First, look at the hands of the lady and the way they’re trying to pull away the man’s hands. Second, the lady is in a kneeled pose which looks like she can’t say “no” in this situation. Do you agree with this? Nevertheless, the painting itself is absolutely stunning. This magical aura made of gold (which is actually real) and the references to Egyptian culture in 2D are just awesome. You can see this masterpiece in the Österreichische Galerie Belvedere in Vienna.
Bouquet of Flowers in an Earthenware Vase, Jan Brueghel the Elder, 1606–1607
Just look at this stunning painting. This is a classic Dutch flower still life. The artist traveled a lot in order to draw rare flowers and this bouquet is actually not a real one, because the flowers you see in it grow at different times of the year. This is why it took Brueghel so long to create one painting — he wasn’t just fooling around. You can see it in the Alte Pinakothek Museum in Munich.
The Discobolus, Myron, about 460–450 BCE
Everyone has probably seen this statue and you might think that this is a very famous athlete, but no. This is a generalized image that was purposefully deprived of any individuality. At the time, the personalities were not at the forefront, which can be seen in all of the art of Ancient Greece. Every sculptor was looking for their own universal formula. By the way, the original statue which was made of bronze wasn’t preserved, unfortunately. So we only have the Roman copies made of marble. The best one is located in the Palazzo Massimo in Rome.
Old Coquette, Bernardo Strozzi, 1637
The main message of the painting is obvious: getting old sucks and trying to look young when you’re not, also sucks. This painting belongs to the genre of the Baroque vanitas. It’s about how fast life is and the fact that death is inevitable. So, let’s take a quick tour of the main symbols. In one hand, the lady is holding a rose. But in the other, she has a fleur d’orange bouquet — the traditional attribute of a bride. This is so ironic, it’s hard to believe it’s real! Also, there is a not-so-subtle reference to vanitas — a dead bird on the mirror. You can think about life and see this painting in the Pushkin Museum, in Moscow.
The Arnolfini Portrait, Jan van Eyck, 1434
Have you heard about the era of the Northern Renaissance? It’s the same Renaissance, but in northern Europe, where he is from. The painting shows a wedding. At the time, you could get married at home or in a church with 2 witnesses. If you’re wondering where the witnesses are, you should take a look in the mirror behind the couple. By the way, one of the people in the reflection is probably Jan van Eyck himself — a genius move. But the artist couldn’t help but leave another mark. A small caption above the mirror, that says something like Jan van Eyck was here. And how do you like the small dog? It is a symbol of loyalty. This masterpiece is in the National Gallery in London.
Café Terrace at Night, Vincent van Gogh, 1888
When you see a Vincent van Gogh painting, put on your “smart” face and say that it’s post-impressionism. This way, you will instantly be accepted into the art expert community. This is a real place with a cafe in a French town called Arles, where the artist went not long before he died. And the best part is that around 100 years later, this place was restored and made to look like it does in the painting. You probably also noticed the starry night: this is what Vincent van Gogh is known for. By the way, from an astronomy standpoint, everything here is perfect. The artists that actually do their research are genius. You can see the deep colors and this starry night in the Kröller-Müller Museum in the Netherlands.
The Conjurer, Hieronymus Bosch, 1475–1502
This is one of the earliest works of Bosch. He did it before he went into the Biblical stories and all the other well-known works that later made him famous. In this one, there are some weird-looking animals, a crowd of people who’ve stopped to take a look at the show, and, to their surprise, a magician is performing tricks. The viewers have mixed feelings: some of them like what they see, some are frowning in disbelief. But look at the man standing behind everyone. He is definitely the magician’s accomplice: while the people are distracted by a very poor quality show, this guy is stealing someone’s wallet. An exact copy of the painting is in the Municipal Museum in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, but the original painting was, unfortunately, lost.
Impression, Sunrise, Claude Monet, 1872
Here you can see an old port in the French town of Havre, the hometown of the artist. At first sight, it’s, well, 50 shades of grey, nothing special, but this painting changed the game. It is believed that this was the “Impression” that gave the name to the entire direction of art. Basically, it’s about giving up the academic way of painting, and choosing to picture the fleeting moment or reality. At first, a lot of people didn’t like the new style and they thought that being able to see Monet’s brushstrokes was terrible. But later, the artist had followers all around the world. Actually, Monet did a series of paintings about the Havre port. This one is located in the Marmottan Monet Museum in Paris.
Primavera, Sandro Botticelli, between 1475-1485
As you can see, this is the early Renaissance era: everything is very bright, people still look like people, but they are too attractive. Botticelli drew all 3 months of spring here just because he could. On the right, the god of wind, Zephyros, is taking the forest nymph Chloris somewhere where they will marry and she will become the goddess Flora. This is the impersonation of March, the unceremonious type. The central character is Venus. Ancient Romans celebrated her ascension in April, so the second month of spring is represented by her. And the final month is May: on the left, May is poking at something with a stick. He is shown as Mercury, the son of the goddess Maia. He uses a stick to make the clouds go away, because if there’s no sunlight, nothing will grow. You can see this painting in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.
Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, Thomas Gainsborough, 1750
Gainsborough’s favorite genre was landscape painting but, unfortunately, it wasn’t very profitable, and it didn’t make him famous. His natural resourcefulness helped him. Aristocrats have always loved pompous rococo portraits. So, Gainsborough added his favorite rural areas into these portraits inventing a new genre that quickly became popular among wealthy people. The people in the painting are looking at us and seem as if they are inviting us to have a little chat. There is no glamour of the classic French rococo. But details like the hunter’s suit, his rifle, and his wife’s big dress mean that these people are wealthy. In the background, you can see the meadow with sheep which are the dowry of Mrs. Andrews. And the oak behind the people is a symbol of the well-being of their dynasty. You can see it at the London National Gallery.
Nighthawks, Edward Hopper, 1942
This artist masterfully creates tension, not only with the colors, but also using details you can’t see right away. You can see the cafe, the people, but you can’t enter the place because you can’t see the doors. It’s as if they are locked in there and we can only watch from the outside. Maybe, you’ve read Ernest Hemingway’s story The Killers, where 2 people were waiting for their victim in a cafe. It seems that this painting is the perfect setting for this story. Also, it’s possible that this a scene from a movie that doesn’t exist. Just look at the framing — it looks like a movie shot. In fact, we know that Edward Hopper was a huge movie fan and when he wasn’t drawing, he was watching movies. You can see this painting at the Art Institute of Chicago.
