Ancient Asian art
The history of Asian art or Eastern art, includes a vast range of influences from various cultures and religions.
Developments in Asian art historically parallel those in Western art, in general a few centuries earlier.
Chinese art🎨, Indian art, Korean art, Japanese art🎨, each had significant influence on Western art, and, vice versa.
Near Eastern art also had a significant influence on Western art. Excluding prehistoric art, the art of Mesopotamia represents the oldest forms of Asian art.

Adriaen Brouwer (1605-1638) | Genre painter
Adriaen Brouwer (Oudenaarde, c. 1605 - Antwerp, January 1638) was a Flemish painter🎨 active in Flanders and the Dutch Republic in the first half of the 17th century.
Brouwer was an important innovator of genre painting through his vivid depictions of peasants, soldiers and other 'lower class' individuals engaged in drinking, smoking, card or dice playing, fighting, music making etc. in taverns or rural settings.
Brouwer contributed to the development of the genre of tronies, i.e. head or facial studies, which investigate varieties of expression.

Antonio Sgarbossa, 1945 | Ballet dancers
Antonio Sgarbossa is one of the most appreciated and well known painters in Italy and abroad.
In art Antonio looks for something that is beyond our normal vision. It is the rather mysterious side that appears, with all the emotions and the thrills of the soul.
He harmoniously transfers it under a pictorial light, into a world that becomes fabulous, as our eyes discover it; loaded with suggestions; extremely sweet in its chromatic harmony; capricious in its images and in continuous movement, ready to capture us deeply and allow us to dream. He has shown the authentic quality of a painter. It is worth observing his paintings deeply, to taste its suggestive magic.
Pino Daeni | Romantic Impressionist painter
Italian artist🎨 Pino Daeni (1939-2010) was an immense talent who will be greatly missed.
His talent was surpassed only by his character and his passion for life and for his family.
Daeni's art and canvases elicit feelings of warmth, nostalgia, love and family.
His paintings are often set on vibrantly sunny beaches on the Mediterranean where he grew up.
