Dark.
The coffee, that is.
Not with that attitude.
From the thumbnail, I took it to be just another dusty Western. But I watched a few minutes and I can see it's not. Gonna watch this asap.
Thanks for the share!

Thanks for posting anyway, looks interesting.
This was posted about a year ago but that post's image is lost, it seems.
It's amazing to think Goya painted this on his dining room wall.
The paintings originally were painted as murals on the walls of the house, later being "hacked off" the walls and attached to canvas by owner Baron Frédéric Émile d'Erlanger.
Other than the artist (who is a woman) thinks some women don't make good sufragettes, I'm not sure either.

Yah.
At the time of its unveiling, A Bar at the Folies-Bergère was immediately critiqued for its startling and distinctive perspective. While at first glance it may appear that there is a crowd behind the barmaid, it is actually the reflection of a mirror. So, the back of a blonde woman leaning over a counter we see behind the main figure is in fact her reflection. So, as the viewer, we are placed in the position of the man talking to her. However, the details in the foreground and those in the mirror don't exactly match up—leading many of Manet's contemporaries to accuse him of making a mistake.
Today, art historians have different theories as to why the perspective in the painting appears skewed. Some believe it is an intentional “error” to show the two different experiences of the barmaid, where she is withdrawn in one point of view and leaning attentively towards the gentleman in the other. Or, the duality of the composition could be hinting at the figure's double-life as a barmaid and sex worker.

Oh snap, that's amazing. Well done!
I'm pretty sure I saw this in the theater when it came out, and I'm also sure I don't remember any of it. I guess I'll watch it again.

No need for a second term either.
Black Woman with Peonies is a painting by Frédéric Bazille, produced in late spring 1870, a few months before the outbreak of the Franco-Prussian War which would claim his life. It has been in the Musée Fabre, in Montpellier, since 1918. It is an oil on canvas and its dimensions are 60.3 cm (23.7 in) × 75.2 cm (29.6 in).
Mariano Fortuny y Marsal (June 11, 1838 – November 21, 1874), known more simply as Mariano Fortuny, was the leading Spanish painter of his day, with an international reputation. His brief career encompassed works on a variety of subjects common in the art of the period, including the Romantic fascination with Orientalist themes, historicist genre painting, military painting of Spanish imperial expansion, as well as a prescient loosening of brush-stroke and color.
A Bar at the Folies-Bergère (French: Un bar aux Folies Bergère) is a painting by Édouard Manet, considered to be his last major work. It was painted in 1882 and exhibited at the Paris Salon of that year. It depicts a scene in the Folies Bergère nightclub in Paris. The painting originally belonged to the composer Emmanuel Chabrier, a close friend of Manet, and hung over his piano. It is now in the Courtauld Gallery in London.

Édouard Manet (23 January 1832 – 30 April 1883) was a French modernist painter. He was one of the first 19th-century artists to paint modern life, as well as a pivotal figure in the transition from Realism to Impressionism.
Mr and Mrs Andrews is an oil on canvas portrait of about 1750 by Thomas Gainsborough, now in the National Gallery, London. Today it is one of his most famous works, but it remained in the family of the sitters until 1960 and was very little known before it appeared in an exhibition in Ipswich in 1927, after which it was regularly requested for other exhibitions in Britain and abroad, and praised by critics for its charm and freshness. By the post-war years its iconic status was established, and it was one of four paintings chosen to represent British art in an exhibition in Paris celebrating the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953. Soon the painting began to receive hostile scrutiny as a paradigm of the paternalist and capitalist society of 18th-century England, but it remains a firm popular favourite.
Cornelius Johnson or Cornelis Janssens van Ceulen (bapt. 14 October 1593 – bur. 5 August 1661) was an English painter of portraits of Dutch or Flemish parentage. He was active in England, from at least 1618 to 1643, when he moved to Middelburg in the Netherlands to escape the English Civil War. Between 1646 and 1652 he lived in Amsterdam, before settling in Utrecht, where he died.
Le génie du mal (or The Genius of Evil or The Spirit of Evil), known informally in English as Lucifer or The Lucifer of Liège is a religious sculpture executed in white marble and installed in 1848 by the Belgian artist Guillaume Geefs. Francophone art historians often refer to the figure as an ange déchu, a "fallen angel".
The sculpture is located in the elaborate pulpit of St. Paul's Cathedral, Liège, and depicts a classically attractive man chained, seated, and nearly nude but for drapery gathered over his thighs, his full length ensconced within a mandorla of bat wings. Geefs' work replaces an earlier sculpture created for the space by his younger brother Joseph Geefs, L'ange du mal, which was removed from the cathedral because of its distracting allure and "unhealthy beauty".
Beauty and the Beast (French: La Belle et la Bête – also the UK title) is a 1946 French romantic fantasy film directed by French poet and filmmaker Jean Cocteau.
