🖼️ for Beatrice and the same for Stella the patron of the arts ^^ —leila-of-ravens

i was so hoping someone would ask this one thank youuuu, i give a mini art history lesson in this post lol

🖼️ a moodboard of my muses art aesthetic

Beatrice:

Artists featured: Beatrice Offor, John Singer Sargent, Thomas Dewing, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, George Elgar Hicks, and John William Waterhouse

Her art aesthetic is inspired mainly by portraiture, specifically from the late 19th century. For her, I’m drawn to Pre-Raphaelite art and depictions of mythological characters and allegories (like the nude lady in the right corner who is a personification of night, Circe in the top left corner, and Pandora in the top right corner)

Beatrice’s background and fashion sense are drawn heavily from the 19th century, so I find portraits of that century really evoke her aesthetic for me.

Art movements/styles: Pre-Raphaelite, Realism, Aesthetic Movement

Stella:

Artists Featured: James Abbott McNeill Whistler, Gustav Klimt, Alphonse Mucha, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Édouard Manet, Jules Chéret

Stella’s main art aesthetic is the Art Nouveau movement. The colors and sense of movement really remind me of Stella, I think she’d happily decorate her entire house in gold like the Peacock Room (top left corner). I’ve also included a few Impressionist artists who I think Stella would appreciate, partially because GAY (the top right painting is usually read as two women hehe) and because the Impressionist movement was all about breaking from tradition which is very Stella.

I can really picture Stella in Paris in the 1920s (probably trying to flirt with Zelda Fitzgerald) and I think that’s why I chose some of these works.

Art movements/styles: Art Nouveau, Impressionism, Renaissance

Honorable mention for her is just Renaissance art in general , especially

La Primavera by Sandro Botticelli

Part of Stella’s post-canon route is that she’s a patron of the arts, and might even open a museum in Vesuvia (we’ll see lol) so due to the general time period, I think the canon art she’d be commissioning and collecting would be Renaissance and Baroque art.

#i had so much fun with this omg #i will gladly talk more about art at any point #apprentice beatrice #apprentice stella #talking about art makes me so 💗💗💗💗#so thank you for asking laura

Artistic rendering of Sappho by William Adolphe Bouguereau

Sappho (630 – c. 570 BC) was an Archaic Greek poet from the island of Lesbos. Sappho is known for her lyric poetry, written to be sung while accompanied by a lyre. In ancient times, Sappho was widely regarded as one of the greatest lyric poets and was given names such as the "Tenth Muse" and "The Poetess". Most of Sappho's poetry is now lost, and what is extant has mostly survived in fragmentary form; two notable exceptions are the "Ode to Aphrodite" and the Tithonus poem. As well as lyric poetry, ancient commentators claimed that Sappho wrote elegiac and iambic poetry.

Who are your idols and inspirations?

This was also a really hard question. I wanted to list off big important historical figures as muses and list their contributions to the world but when I really thought about it I came up with nothing. Yes, there are a lot of people on this planet who have done amazing things who I admire (Marie Curie, William Adolphe Bouguereau, Dr. Suess, Queen Soraya Tarzi, Mike Rowe,Steve Irwin, to name a few) but I wouldn’t say I idolize them or look to them for inspiration. In fact, I really wouldn’t say I have ever really done that for anybody. One of the things that I guess is really kind of unique about me is that I really am self inspiring. I always have looked within myself for inspiration, or I’ve made general world observations to do the same. I’ve always been the type to use applied knowledge from my experiences and the experiences of others to not only self inspire but to self teach. That’s how I’ve basically learned how to do everything I’ve learned thus far, and that’s pretty much how I will continue to learn things unless I can figure out how to memorize facts.
