Seven Colours of the Rainbow

A rainbow is an optical phenomenon caused by refraction, internal reflection and dispersion of light in water droplets resulting in a continuous spectrum of light appearing in the sky.

The rainbow takes the form of a multicoloured circular arc.

Rainbows caused by sunlight always appear in the section of sky directly opposite the Sun.

Rainbows can be caused by many forms of airborne water.

These include not only rain, but also mist, spray, and airborne dew.

Francois Fressinier, 1968 | Figurative painter

Born in Cognac, France to scholarly portrait photographer parents with an affinity for aesthetics, it was fitting that modern figurative artist, François Fressinier, would develop a unique, enchanting style.

His father's admiration for the works of the Old Masters and his exposure to some of the world's most historic places, along with France's Gallo-Roman ruins and Gothic churches inclined François to explore and create figurative, symbolic artwork.

In addition, his education at the Ecole Brassart in Tours afforded him the opportunity to study the drawings and paintings of old and new masters.

Konstantin Razumov, 1974 | Children's world

Konstantín Rázumov (Константин Разумов) is a Russian painter with a realistic-impressionistic tendency.

He began his studies in art and painting in the studio Ilyá Glazunov at the Academy of Fine Arts in Moscow.

Razúmov is faithful to early Impressionism; however, he adds some modern touches, which are most evident in his beautiful, charming, soft and sensual figures.

Giulio Da Vicchio | Post Macchiaioli painter

Giulio Rontini Da Vicchio (Vicchio di Mugello, 1925 - Livorno, 2004) was a renowned painter who mainly exhibited in Italy but also in Paris and Toronto.

He was the last representative of the Post-Macchiaioli painters.

He was considered the greatest representative of the Livorno painting of the late twentieth century.

Giulio Rontini was the son of the painter Ferruccio Rontini (1893-1964) and takes the stage name Da Vicchio to distinguish himself from his father.

When was it decided that January 1st is the new year?

The New Year is the time or day at which a new calendar year begins and the calendar's year count increments by one. Many cultures celebrate the event in some manner.

In the Gregorian calendar, the most widely used calendar system today, New Year occurs on January 1 (New Year's Day, preceded by New Year's Eve).

This was also the first day of the year in the original Julian calendar and the Roman calendar (after 153 BC).

Kike Meana, 1969 | Figurative painter

The works of Spanish painter Kike Meana demonstrate a rigorous interest in drawing.

Meana confronts us with the indoctrinated mass that this society can be and in which we all, in some way, see a reflection of ourselves.

His fantastic urban landscapes, mythical in their atmosphere, light, and colour, as well as the immense panoramic views of Havana, London and Madrid overwhelm the viewer.

Meanwhile, his more intimate pictorial approaches of these big cities show us their daily life and their hidden corners with an equal strength and beauty, even in the hard and intense series´ Metamorphosis and Matadero.
