Arab Philosopher (from Giorgione)
Acrylic on Canvas
7" X 7"
I frequently copy images in pen & ink, but I almost never make paintings of paintings. This one of a favorite figure by Giorgione, I did to show my daughter painting technique. The great Venetian, Giorgione, is a particular favorite of mine. He revolutionized painting by improvising his poetic images- so much so that his subjects often cannot be determined with certainty.
