Moritz von Schwind - Farewell at Dawn, 1859

| Moritz von Schwind - Farewell at Dawn, 1859 oil on cardboard, 24.0 x 36.0 cm Alte Nationalgalerie, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin |
In works — both poetic and accessible — which the artist himself referred to as “occasional poems,” Schwind liked to record episodes from his own life. He also described this series of small idylls as “Travel Pictures.” Scenes, like this one of his departure from Vienna thirty years before, are concentrated into a lyrical image. Here, the painting achieves its timeless relevance by the telling way it captures that decisive moment of the traveller looking back and forwards at the same time. via

Maximilien Luce - Camaret, Moonlight and Fishing Boats, 1894

| Maximilien Luce - Camaret, Moonlight and Fishing Boats, 1894 oil on canvas, Saint Louis Art Museum |
In this atmospheric nocturnal scene, Maximilien Luce painted the fishing port of Camaret in Brittany in the far west of France. The artist emphasizes a sense of geometric structure by repeating the diagonal lines of the boats while using a palette of blues and violets to offset the intense yellow of the moon. Luce turned to Pointillism as a technique in 1887 and became a prominent figure in this group of neo-Impressionists who meticulously built up their canvases with thousands of dots and flecks of paint. via
