Great Wave off Kanagawa is the only artwork I’ve seen where I understand the golden spiral overlay. Everything else feels like I’m being trolled.

#art #western art #golden ratio #fibonacci sequence #leonardo da vinci #great wave off kanagawa #rembrandt #piet mondrian #greek parthenon #I'm serious none of these lines match with anything #it's like some people looked at this art and just decided to slap the spiral png with the center kind of near a point of focus #the mondrian one feels like cheating you found two perpendicular lines and absolutely nothing else matches and you say it's a match #vitruvian man makes me mad too because it's a BALANCED ARTWORK #IT IS RADIALLY SYMETTRICAL #don't throw some lopsided spiral in there against his hips why would you do that #greek parthenon gets me mad too because there's substantial evidence the Greeks who built it didn't even know about the spiral? #and like that should be super obvious because none of the lines on it match up to the lines from the ratio? #argghhhghghh it all feels like a troll

from november 2023 to may 2024 at villa caffarelli, part of the capitoline museums, an exhibit entirely dedicated to phidias, the famous sculptor behind the parthenon and the chrysoelephantine colossi of the athena parthenos and zeus of olympia.

the exhibit is composed of a selection of more than 100 works, from archaeological finds to paintings and manuscripts narrating the life and work of the artisan, with the support of reconstructions, multimedia installations and digital content.

the exhibition is the first of a series of five exhibitions, "i grandi maestri della grecia antica". in addition with the artworks coming from museums in rome and other italian institutions, the exhibit contains some extraordinary loans, items that have never left their museum premises, as for example two fragments from the parthenon frieze, from the acropolis museum in athens.

Did you see the news about the artifacts stolen from the Stolen Artifacts Museum?

Someone working on the inside of the British Museum has been stealing artifacts from their vaults since at least 2016.

More than one expert recognized artifacts being sold on EBay and alerted the British Museum upper management, but they ignored and gaslit the whistleblowers- for two years.

The British Museum uses the excuse of “protecting” artifacts to justify its refusal to repatriate stolen treasures. The news has reinvigorated many campaigns for repatriation. Especially for the looted pieces of the Parthenon, aka the Elgin Marbles.

The main suspect, the guy who was recently fired, the guy whose name was on the EBay account fencing the artifacts,

was the acting keeper of the Elgin Marbles.

The museum officials and the BBC are giving slanted updates to try to make it seem less bad than it actually is, but it’s bad:

For nearly two centuries, a baffling brown stain on the Parthenon's marble sculptures has puzzled archaeologists. Now, after extensive scientific analysis, the enigma deepens! The National Museum in Copenhagen holds a key piece to this puzzle: a marble head from the Parthenon's centaur figure, shrouded in this mysterious brown film.
