This January 2011 issue of the Smithsonian magazine has a great article about an artist I'd never heard of. Giuseppe Arcimboldo was a portrait painter but when you see how he portrayed his subjects you'd think he was the first steampunk artist ever.
Until my next post,

ReplyDeleteTFs the info ~
we saw his show at the National Gallery and it was stunning. according to their bio of him, he did sort of fly under the art radar screen for many years.
