La Gran Bretagna, da Gainsborough a Turner

Pittura britannica

Pittura britannica dagli anni Sessanta del Settecento agli anni Sessanta dell’Ottocento, un secolo di ritratti, cavalli e cieli mutevoli. I bambini del cottage di Gainsborough che raccolgono legna, Lady Smith di Reynolds con i suoi figli, il cavallo da caccia di Stubbs tenuto da uno stalliere, il levriero scozzese di Landseer, la cattedrale di Salisbury di Constable incorniciata dagli alberi e le baleniere di Turner perse negli spruzzi. Cieli morbidi, seta e molte nuvole.

Come puzzle

Un montaggio gentile, quasi sempre. Le sete e il pelo dei cani danno ai ritratti molto su cui ordinare, e i cavalli e i levrieri hanno un pelo che corre in una direzione chiara. Gli alberi piumosi e i cieli velati dietro chi posa vanno più piano, e Turner è l’eccezione a tutto: le sue baleniere sono quasi solo spruzzi e foschia, quindi dai a quel quadro pochi pezzi e una sera lunga.

Una buona misura qui: 50–200 pezzi.
