Dear Visitors, Inspirers and Followers, As one cannot remain a Ganymede’s forever; since in life you better rise an eagle than fall as its prey; I better not hide my identity any longer. My name is Jean Louis, I have been a research chemist for many years, which granted me a U.S. Personal residency for being a scientist with outstanding abilities. Art and Beauty are essential ingredients to my life; earlier as a collector’s hobby, but now also as an art buying advisor or liaison for decorators and the art trade, where I count numerous friends… a reason more to finding myself, hopping continents. An Aesthete, I was born in Belgium, of European continental and non-continental descent. This has made me passionate and spirited. A Monarchist; therefore somehow a Conservative, I am unabashedly a supporter of Human Rights, and a believer in Unconditional Love. I love American professionalism but, culturally, my anglophile edge is more “open-ended“, meaning that I love almost each and every country that finding an Anglo-Saxon style to its origins, has known how to “vernacularize” it personably. When not in America, I live in Aquitaine, primarily because of my love for my Mother, but also for the beauty by which the regionals understand leading a French lifestyle with a distinctive compatibility with British “flair”; its architecture, its landscape, its art and, of course, epicurean traditions. I may appear in love with the past, through culture, music and traditions. However, that said, I am extremely open to innovation, for as much as it is aptly distributed toward enhancing a non-depletive utilisation of the World’s resources we only, temporarily, are lessors of. I “militate” against poor taste [not an easy task in my new job], even if I do agree that tastes and colours are never to be debated ever. Unlike even spirituality, geo-politics and sexuality, they can never ever set a fungible common ground… and if venturing otherwise proves me wrong, than, it becomes l...

This painting of Two Pigeons is a detailed depiction of the natural world of India in the seventeenth century. Mughal emperors were particularly fond of paintings depicting their world, including portraiture, historical events, and documentation of flora and fauna. This painting fits into a much larger category of plant and animal studies, and records the species present at the Mughal court. The pigeon at left has two golden anklets on its feet, suggesting that these are imperial creatures in the possession of the emperor.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC, NY.
Two pigeons, Mughal, ca. 1650.

Sascha Schneider, (1870 – 1927) “Kingdom of the Soul” symbolist Art in Germany, is considered to be a part of the Dresden circle that formed around Max Klinger. Before Schneider became involved with illustrating Karl May he already had a successful career as a painter. He favoured large sale works, several including his masterpiece. His Dresden Klinger group also included Richard Muller, Otto Greiner and Hans Unger. Since these artists do not easily fit into any stylistic category their work has been in the sphere of the specialist. Max Klinger had an enormous influence and most of the themes that these artists developed in their drawing, printmaking and painting originated with him. Klinger was also responsible for adding a psychological element to their work. An example of his thinking can be seen in his haunting print cycle. “A Glove.” However, Schneider, Muller and Greiner greatly surpassed Klinger in technical abilities, as all were brilliant known to be great draughtsman and colourists. This work deserves to have a much broader audience. Enjoy!
