Renaissance to Romanticism

admin — Mon, 08 Aug 2011 17:04:00 +0000

One of the aspects of Europeans heritage that I’m in love with is the illustrated history in paintings in the period dating back to Renaissance at about 1400 A.D and till the end of Romanticism at about 1800 A.D. I realized the artistic value in these paintings at my visit to the metropolitan museum in New York. seeing these works by my own in it’s atmosphere created a sesne of appreciation to the wealth held inside. My interest were more augmented with my visit to National Gallery, London. later I started looking up for more pieces of art over the internet and read the history behind.

I’ll depicts some of my favorite paintings.

Rembrandt,

Portrait of Johannes Wtenbogaert, 1633; his detailed observation to the contrast in light and darkness in his portraits. and caution for face details attracted my attentions.

Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp, 1632: added is some of the view it provides to the scene at the artist’s time.

Jean Auguste,

Princesse Albert de Broglie 1853, Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Eugene Delacroix

Liberty Leading the People 1830, Louvre

Jacques Louis

The Death of Socrates 1787, Metropolitan Museum of Art

Johannes Vermeer

The girl with pearl earring (The Dutch Monalisa) 1665, Mauritshuis

Joseph Wright

An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump 1768, National Gallery, London. Maybe this piece is the best technically painted work in the 18th century.

The execution of Lady Jane Grey. This painting is more beautiful if you would see it in the National Gallery. the dress & the eye fold details and care for light/dark contrast in all aspects of the painting including the small details as the space between hair strands attract your attention. the atmosphere created to transmit the event from the Normandy architecture in the background to the displeasure expression on the executioner and the sadness of accompaniments. By far , this is my most favorite painting.

Two weeks before med final

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 23:09:00 +0000

You know it’s really weird that I have a blog looking to the fact the many stuff that I don’t wanne share. I’m thinking now of another approach to use my site. maybe to document stuff. or spread my thoughts.
Recently I started working on the medical student council site for King university students at the domain ksumsc.com. in about maybe extra weeks I’ll finish the full functions. it’s joomla based, and a pre-made template, so no much work was done. Hussam stepped in giving me his account at template designer company this facilitated the template purchase. my touches going to be later adding the functionalities and marketing the site.
In matter of sites I stopped working on IFMSA-SA.net site because how things turned lately regarding the ifmsa-sa after the national meeting plus my deep faith that adil (the president) is taking advantage of the organization and just won’t go away.

October the fourth, the start of the new year

admin — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 08:35:00 +0000

Written this days ago, but couldn’t submit on the spot cuz of the firewall, anyway here I am resubmitting. |

Now I’m burning a DVD, which may take like 20 minutes, sitting in class alone it’s 11:30 everybody went down or out and in the room behind me group of students from the same class arguing about sport … . now I’m a subgroup leader, not a big deal. it really don’t have much great into it I already turned down this good guy to join our group because other didn’t feel comfortable with the increased number.
Anyway my summer been good maybe one of the best times I ever had in my life. maybe that why I get to feel so bored lately after appreciating what is a REAL fun is. so I skipped meeting with my childhood friends, it start feeling to me we’re repeating the same fun that it became a routine. I have enough routine with school don’t need something extra.
I felt disturbed with how many knew when I’ve been doing many people I don’t care about, and what bothers me the most that they didn’t knew it directly from me. I’ll get more reclusive in the next days. also I’m deleting things from existance i my life like Facebook, Messenger .. etc. hope I keep that.

I’ll look now for a better sources of entertainment, in a desprate shot I followe m hobby, I already installed my home set, just little few parts yet.

Information Loss

admin — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 04:12:00 +0000

I had in my life two massive information losses one when I was 14 when I lost my packs of 600 pages of drawings between comics, drawing, a production of 5 years, that resulted in long hiatus which affected my skill.
The second was two years ago when I lost hard disk containing my productions within design company. also other artworks I created among files I gathered among years and memories. The extraction failed repeatedly. The last one resulted that I today have external 4 * 500 GB disks one saved in brother’s just in case.

Today also I had information loss but minor kind, some pictures I supposed to hand today of scientific lab was lost, explaining some procedures. I’ll still try to picture it today and process it. my friend was kind enough to volunteer for the second time as I passed b his house hours ago (3:30AM). as I wrote this I didn’t sleep 18 hours maybe 6 hours later I’ll sleep.

Oh well at least I’m in time-off and finished Ob/Gyn.
