Brother and Sister
Original:
Author: Abbott Handerson Thayer
Brother and Sister (Mary and Gerald Thayer). 1889
Asi většina z nás zná Thayerovy obrazy andělů, já jsem si ale vybrala záměrně jiný z jeho obrazů, takový, abych mohla mít společný portrét Natálky s Oliverem...:)
Thayer is sometimes referred to as the "father of camouflage"He first became involved in military camouflage in 1898, during the Spanish-American War, when he and his friend George de Forest Brush proposed the use of protective coloration on American ships, using countershading.The two artists did obtain a patent for their idea in 1902, titled "Process of Treating the Outsides of Ships, etc., for Making Them Less Visible", in which their method is described as having been modeled on the coloration of a seagull.
Thayer and Brush’s experiments with camouflage continued into World War I, both collaboratively and separately. Early during that war, for example, Brush developed a transparent airplane, while Thayer continued his interest in disruptive or high-difference camouflage, which was not unlike what British ship camouflage designer Norman Wilkinson would call dazzle camouflage (a term that may have been inspired by Thayer's writings, which referred to disruptive patterns in nature as "razzle dazzle".)

Two Little Girls
Original:
Author: Egon Schiele
Two Little Girls. 1911
Tento obraz jsem měla připravený k tomu, až k nám přijde kamarádka Natálky, ale včera navečer byla bouřka, a tak jsem s dětmi nemohla jít ven, najednou mě chytnul absťák, že už jsem dlouho (asi dva dny:)) nic nenafotila, a tak jsem z Vikyho udělala holčičku. Snad mi, až bude dospělý, toto promine...:)
I know, there should be two girls instead of one.... I had already prepared this Schiele's picture for shooting, expecting Natty's friend visit, but she could not come, so...I hope Viktor will forgive me this one day...:)

Dora la Cordobesita
Original:
Author: Julio Remero de Torres
Dora la Cordobesita. 1925
Dnes jsem schválně vybrala více fotografií, aby bylo vidět, že povětšinou se musí udělat více záběrů, než se podaří vystihnout mimikou co nejvěrněji atmosféru obrazu...
Today I have intentionally chosen more pictures to show that most of the times I have to do more shots to capture as closely as possible the facial expressions on the paintings...
Blue, Green, Red II
Original:
Author: Ellsworth Kelly
Blue, Green, Red II. 1968
Včera jsem brouzdala na internetu a našla jsem toto dílo od amerického umělce, který byl představitelem Minimalistického hnutí v 70. letech minulého století. Připomnělo mi to fotku z dvojfocení mých kamarádek..., a tak mohu prozradit i jména miminek, vlevo: Maruška a vpravo: Teo!:)
As I know the models, I can reveal also the names of the kids inside: Maruska on the left and Theo on the right!:)
"Ellsworth Kelly is one of my favourite artists and one of those people who make you rethink such basic, almost plain, art. It sounds so simple and basic to think about, but Kelly's work really can be a challenge to comprehend. Especially since they are, you know, giant monochromatic shapes."
(Kyle Fitzpatricks, June 2011, Color, Shape and Ellsworth Kelly)
