The Tissue Series, created by Lisa Nilsson, is a collection of human anatomical illustrations using Japanese mulberry paper and the gilded edges of old books. They are constructed by a technique of rolling and shaping narrow strips of paper called quilling or paper filigree.

This beautiful painting is one of the lesser known works of the Realist Filipino painter of the late 19th century, Juan Luna. The work is entitled Las Damas Romanas, painted by Luna in 1887 in Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando in Madrid.
It gives us an idea of how Luna loved to paint scenes from Ancient Rome, given that he had another greater work depicting a Roman scene of the Coliseum entitled Spoliarium.
What is most curious about this painting was how it reappeared before 2008 after years of being lost. Apparently a French dealer bought it from an estate sale outside of Paris, unaware of its value. It was auctioned again and today it costs around HK$4,700,000.
Filipino paintings have its own unique beauty. Even if Luna began his works in a very European perspective (he was not that of a nationalist compared to his brother, Antonio), Juan Luna and Felix Hidalgo paved the way for other Filipino artists to take the brush and start painting scenes from a Filipino point of view. And with that, the best for me was Fernando Amorsolo.
now if I just have the money and print Filipino Masterpieces on a shirt and sell them. ;) that could really be a cooooool shirt
Keanu Reeves is a vampire.
Now, look at this:
That’s “Paul Mounet”, a french actor, who “died” in 1922.
His body never was found.
Then, look at this:
