A mystery work which was recently found to "undoubtedly" be by Renaissance painter Raphael has gone on show in Bradford, the first time it has ever been seen on public display. Teams from the University of Nottingham and University of Bradford used facial recognition technology to examine the painting, known as the de Brécy Tondo. They found the faces were identical to those in a Raphael altarpiece. It will now be on display at Cartwright Hall Art Gallery for two months. The de Brécy Tondo, which sits in a collection set up by Cheshire businessman George Lester Winward and which was thought by some experts to have been a Victorian copy, has been the subject of research and debate for more than 40 years due to its resemblance to Raphael's Sistine Madonna. Mark and Pete investigate.

“It is likely that the very first beings, single celled organisms that became capable of some sort of reproduction, did this through cooperation, and the efficient sharing of available resources. Focussing on competition likely would have just meant death.

Now this boy is out of it. This guy needs to catch the sun and some vitamin D. If he told me he'd been kidnapped by aliens I'd believe it. (Dieric Bouts again)

Leicester Square (1906), by Alvin Langdon Coburn

[mythologypaintings]

Mars Being Disarmed by Venus

Artist: Jacques-Louis David (French, 1748–1825)

Date: 1824

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Brussels, Belgium

Description

Mars Being Disarmed by Venus is the last painting produced by the French artist Jacques-Louis David. He began it in 1822 (aged 73) during his exile in Brussels and completed it three years later, before dying in an accident in 1825. The work combines idealization with elements of realism. Specifically, David integrated the idealized forms of mythological painting with a realist attention to detail. This combination of two seemingly incompatible principles also plays an important role in the themes of the painting, most notably in its treatment of masculinity and femininity.

David sent the painting from Brussels for exhibition in Paris, where Romanticism was ascendant in the Salon of 1824. The painting initially received a muted response from critics, but over time its reputation has grown. It is now displayed in the Oldmasters Museum (part of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium) in Brussels.

Part LXI

“Monopoly and the selfish gene bring us to a fundamental question: competition or coöperation? Many passages of the selfish gene have since been debunked by science. It seems that coöperation has played a more important role in evolution than coöperation after all.
