Świętujemy urodziny George'a Frederica Wattsa (1817–1904), brytyjskiego malarza i rzeźbiarza. Jego alegoryczne dzieła, takie jak "Nadzieja" i "Miłość i Życie", miały tworzyć cykl "Dom Życia", przedstawiający ludzkie emocje w uniwersalnym języku symbolicznym. #GeorgeFredericWatts #Symbolizm #Sztuka #HistoriaSztuki (fot.
