Inb4 vine baiatu’ cu judetele si incepe sa taie din ele
Mi se pare mie sau aproape fiecare operă de artă poate descrie națiunea din care face parte?
Dacă știe cineva, aia din Ucraina e imaginea care apărea la loading screen in jocul Cossacks?
Carul cu boi, ironic la cum se prezinta situația in țărișoara asta
Question for u/halfabluesky
Russia: Golden Autumn.
OP, why this one was chosen, may I ask? Don’t get me wrong it is quite nice, and Levitan was a ogod landscape painter, but the pinting itself is far from famous.
If you decided to put Repin for Ukraine because he was born there, why do you put for Russia Levitan who was born in Poland?
You could’ve chosen ‟The Ninth Wave”(probably one of the most famous of our paintings), or ‟Morning in the pine forest”, or one of dozens of other paintings that would still be more famous. Why this one?

Here’s the context of Ukraine’s painting.
The painting is called ‟The Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks”
They had just beaten the Ottoman empire in a recent battle, so Sultan Mehmed IV sent them this message:
‟As the Sultan; son of Muhammad; brother of the sun and moon; grandson and viceroy of God; ruler of the kingdoms of Macedonia, Babylon, Jerusalem, Upper and Lower Egypt; emperor of emperors; sovereign of sovereigns; extraordinary knight, never defeated; steadfast guardian of the tomb of Jesus Christ; trustee chosen by God Himself; the hope and comfort of Muslims; confounder and great defender of Christians – I command you, the Zaporogian Cossacks, to submit to me voluntarily and without any resistance, and to desist from troubling me with your attacks.”
To which they replied:
‟O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil’s kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are thou, that canst not slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. Thou shallt not, thou son of a whore, make subjects of Christian sons; we have no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck thy mother.
Thou Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig’s snout, mare’s arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw thine own mother!
So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You will not even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we will conclude, for we don’t know the date and don’t own a calendar; the moon’s in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day’s the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!”
The painting consists of a bunch of Cossacks all coming together to write this masterpiece.
Cea mai celebră pictură*, pare-se. Întreabă tu 100 de străini despre care artist au auzit dintre Grigorescu sau Brâncuși.
Wait, nu asa arata “Rapirea din Serai”
… desi foarte putini romani au auzit/stiu de Adrian Ghenie, sincer cred ca mondial stie mai multa lume de picturile lui ca de “Carul cu boi” al lui Grigorescu…

“Cea mai celebra” – really?
stim cu totii ca defapt este “Iobag in fuga”
De ce Grigorescu si nu Brancusi?
Operă de artă sau pictură?
