LeWitt came to fame in the late 1960s with his wall drawings and «structures» (a term he preferred instead of «sculptures») but was prolific in a wide range of media including drawing, printmaking, photography, painting, installation, and artist's books.
Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist, widely acknowledged to be one of the greatest and most influential physicists of all time. Einstein is best known for developing the theory of relativity, but he also made important contributions to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics. Relativity and quantum mechanics are together the two pillars of modern physics. His mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2, which arises from relativity theory, has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". His work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical physics, and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect", a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory. His intellectual achievements and originality resulted in "Einstein" becoming synonymous with "genius".
Roelant Savery was a Flanders-born Dutch Golden Age painter.
Savery primarily painted landscapes in the Flemish tradition of Gillis van Coninxloo, often embellished with many meticulously painted animals and plants, regularly with a mythological or biblical theme as background. He also painted multiple flower still lifes; bouquets in stone niches, sometimes with lizards such as Flowers with Two Lizards, insects or fallen petals and regarded as his best work.
His unique style of painting, related to the then reigning Mannerism, has been highly popular with collectors and can be found in many museums in Europe and North America. His preparatory drawings are also valued highly.
Vincent van Gogh, the Dutch Post-Impressionist painter, is recognized as one of the most influential figures in the history of Western art. Born on March 30, 1853, in Zundert, Netherlands, he lived a life marked by passionate artistry and personal hardship. Initially working as an art dealer and doing missionary work, Van Gogh turned to painting at the age of 27. His decision to pursue art, which at first was not seen as a sign of his extraordinary talent, led to a rapid transformation into a master known for his bold and harmonious color effects and simple but memorable compositions.
Van Gogh's creative career included a significant period of life in Paris, where he met Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painters who had a profound influence on his style. He became famous for creating some 2,100 works of art in just ten years, notable among them landscapes, still lifes, portraits and self-portraits. His art is characterized by vivid colors, dramatic brushwork, and expressive symbolism, which helped form the foundations of modern art. Despite his prolific output, only one of his paintings was sold during his lifetime.
Some of his famous works include Sunflowers, Bedroom at Arles, Starry Night, and Wheat Field with Crows. These works are notable for their innovative use of color and brushwork, demonstrating Van Gogh's ability to convey emotion and beauty in everyday objects.
Unfortunately, Van Gogh suffered from mental illness throughout his life, which led to his suicide at the age of 37. However, his legacy grew posthumously, with his work being widely recognized and displayed in major museums around the world, including the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam and the Art Institute of Chicago. Van Gogh's art, correspondence, and history continue to fascinate and inspire viewers, cementing his place as a key figure in art history.
For collectors and art experts, Van Gogh's works represent not only significant artistic achievements, but also epitomize the artist's intensely personal journey and contribution to the development of modern art.
