Welcome back art lovers. For those of you who don't yet know, let me remind you the National Gallery, London
I hope that those of you, who were able to attend my free guided tour at the National Gallery today, Saturday 7th July, enjoyed the choice of paintings. But if you missed them or just want a reminded of which pictures we looked at so you can visit them again with a friend. Here is a list of those paintings:
We began with: a painting, by Piero della Francesca (about 1415/20 - 1492), The Baptism of Christ, 1450s, we then looked at Christ Blessing (apparently dated 1465) and Saint Jerome in his Study (about 1475) both by Antonello da Messina (active 1456; died 1479). This was followed by The Four Elements of Air, Earth, Fire and Water, (1570), by Joachim Beuckelaer (active 1560 - 1574). In room 35 we looked at two oil paintings on copper, Saint Paul on Malta (about 1600) and Saint Lawrence prepared for Martyrdom (about 1600-1), both by Adam Elsheimer (1578 - 1610). We then moved on to Bacchus and Ariadne (probably 1700-10), by Sebastiano Ricci (1659 - 1734). Finally we ended in room 43 with The Beach atTrouville
