I feel like just making Rockwell style paintings is a social statement in and of itself today. Sort of like how I notice with surprise when an ad actually portrays a happy white family

Bierstadt and Moran are great as well.

Thomas Cole👌🏻

My favorite period of art is probably the Romantic era, as cliche as that might be around these parts.

You guys ever seen Charlie Russel paintings? Montana artist

CDF, Karl Friedrich Lessing, etc.

Colorado brag..hiked mt bierstadt this year

Bryan Larsen is a wonderful romantic painter today. Based in Salt Lake.

the reason I like guys like D.G Baker and impressionism in general is because they have the essence of the past while remaining forward looking.

well, not all impressionism lol

*early stuff

Charlie M. Russel’s “When the Land Belonged to God”

Romantic school is great, and yeah cool @Lawrence of Eurabia

Great piece.

@Lawrence of Eurabia Love Russel.

CMR’s painting fill the MT State Capital building

Bryan Larsen. Romantic realism — it’s all just white people with children achieving things.

That's really interesting, Alex

Will look up higher res stuff

He has incredible work.

Well that settled what I am putting up next. Bryan Larsen. @Alexander Pechorin great stuff.

A piece a friend of mine commissioned

Thomas Eakins was the greatest American painter, thus proving once again Philadelphia to be the greatest place in the country

“Triumph of Icarus”

very tasteful

Wow, his stuff is pretty affordable.

I call this the Loomer in the Lucas.

whats the medium Conway?

@Conway - OK Cursed

As far as modern art is concerned, Italian Futurism is cool. It arose in the early 20th century out of a sense that Italian culture was seen as something that happened in the past. Italian Futurism was thus a way for young Italians to shock their country out of what they viewed as deep cultural stagnation.
