This is all about Max's nose. Yes, I know this sounds really strange as a topic. However:
His pointy and slightly ski-jump nose is one of his most distinctive (and ridiculously adorable) features, as per the physionotrace portraits and others:

Well, we know about the work Hockney has done on lenses & c in Renaissance and Early Modern painting… Now, meet the 18C Physionotrace!
I love the dashing young officer illustrated lower down the page, too! This is very, very interesting, and resolves a few things with Max iconography.

Did anyone else have the opportunity to visit this exhibition at the Morgan Library & Museum in New York? I went back in early December and had planned to write a review for this community, but then I found myself struggling to convey my impressions. Perhaps because I don't have a very extensive background in art history and lack the vocabulary. I also think I had hoped to see the pieces better situated in their historical context; the exhibition seemed (in my opinion) to hinge more on their importance to an aesthetic movement rather their social or political relevance.

Still, it was very interesting and I'm glad I went. If anyone else visited, I would be interested to hear your reactions.

Ok. I was posting my presentation entry when LJ ate it D:<
*Calms down* well, I will rewrite it. I'm a new member \ ^o^ /
I have been looking for people that could help me with my studies on the French Revolution. Is a theme that really interest me, but so complex and so hard find a good book about it, but I only find Marie-Antoniette fangirls. That's so depressing... Now, I find this community! I'm so happy ^^
BTW, I like to draw chibis about it. I'll show us this, but it look like a 3-years-old-child draw and my camera hates it like you can see.
David learned that he will never paint Marat in the bath while he's alive )



(David... what I said you about paint-me while i'm in the bath?)
Another thing: my language is the Spanish. I can read English very well, but I suffer trying to write something. And I can read French because is very similar to Spanish, but I can't write a phrase with sense. So, be patient with me ;_;

ALL OTHER ISSUES ABOUT THIS BOOK ASIDE, I have made an important observation about Marat's presence in A Place of Greater Safty, citizens.

Let me share it with you )

WARNING: MY LANGUAGE LOL


HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARAT



LOOKING FINE FOR 267 YEARS OLD, LOOK AT THIS FUCKING FREE BITCH.

AND NOW. IT. IS. TIME.

TO PARTY

Those thoughtless men who criticize me for being so stubborn, will see from this that I have been this way from an early age-- GET THE FUCK OUT, DAVID. )

POST ALL OF YOUR MARAT PICS. THIS IS A PARTY POST.

Easy reference is very easy. And yes, even though the telephone wasn't invented until 80-some-odd years after the revolution, it's here for comedy's sake :V

MOAR MARAT IN DAVID IN COMICS (and once again, inspired by [livejournal.com profile] kurotoshi's comic). Oh and my humor is very weird. Just sayin'....

STOP CALLING STOP CALLING-- )

The Les Mis community will have already seen this one, but I've been inspired by all the Revolutionary fan art lately to plonk it in here as well!

This one is for the Saint-Just lovers out there; it's got a weathered look to it this time since the photo was more minimal than the painting and it just looked so empty...

Thank you, Mr. Angel of Death, for having a cravat that is so much easier to draw with the pen tool )


And I forgot to mention! Please, feel free to use these pieces in parts, as a whole, do whatever you want with them (draw mustaches, cut them apart, put Robespierre in a dress, whatever). I have made them for you! They are vector artworks, so if I did my work right, they should resize quite nicely without pixelating.

HELLO! To all you lovely people!
May this first post be a tiny homage to all of you and to the piece of history that always tends to be forgotten.

Brount ate his spectacles so he must go without them for a while... )


Just in case: it's a spoof off of an iconic Shepard Fairey print! Dozens of them have been made, almost everyone famous has been done...so I thought Robespierre might like one, too :)

As I promised, here is our dear and well respected Maximilien, hidden in a cart of oranges!  X3

However, he is a little confused, so he's wondering what's going up. We're so mean XD

Where is Maxime? )

So recently I got a bit worried that I was losing my ability to draw in a realistic style (if you've seen my earlier post, you've seen my chibis), so I decided to try it again.

Of course, this is probably the first time I've sat down and tried a full-scale realistic drawing/painting for two, maybe three years (I got lazy...), so it's not that good, the expressions are a little odd, and they don't look quite like the people they're supposed to be.

But I figured I'd post them here and see what people think anyway. ^^

Beware! Large pictures!

Camille Desmoulins )


Saint-Just )

Also, if anyone's bored, on Halloween my friend and I went as revolutionaries. I only have the pics of Saint-Just and Robespierre, not Camille, but it's still amusing. Saint-Just has been captured doing the time warp - but hey, it's not the worst thing that's happened to his reputation.

Link to my journal; moderately big images!

okay. since i've decided to be very brave...I'll share some of my horrible fanart. I'm afraid it's okay. At least that's in my opinion. But you guys might enjoy it.

^^

I've drew alot of fanart but i'll share some with you guys. And maybe if you like it, i'll put up some more ^^



Cute Maxime ^^ )

A better view; more realistic )

And lastly..

Salut et Fraternité Citoyens!

I'm new on the livejournal and here too. I feel so I'm the only hungarian revolution fanXD
I watched this community for a long time, but I thought of that way, I can't post any useful things to here. I saw other revolution fan posted their arts to here. Therefore I will do it also.
I hope you like it:)










I don't draw them only so....I have revolutionary story XD They are too cute, I think.....
Soon I will continue the posting:)
