imagine spending your entire life perfecting your craft, decades upon decades of thankless, tireless, isolating work - knowing too that it's likely you wont even be appreciated during your life time - spending hundreds upon hundreds of hours on each masterpiece, stressing about each stroke, each square millimeter of color
then some fucking dipshit on 4chan takes a cropping tool to your life's work

eat shit

>>8106396
relax bro, it isn't that deep
I'm pretty sure all these dead guys would appreciate that I’m honoring their art by setting it as my desktop wallpaper

Just cropped this.

>>8106396
contribute, shut up, or kill yourself

>>8106396
Imagine being your parents, raising a complete faggot that thinks there is a right and a wrong way to enjoy art.

>>8106396
Only after some dipshit scans your picture at 1200x500 for the google art project.
Thanks for the wallpapers, OP.

This is incredible. Thank you.

Amazing thread OP, thank you. Hubert Robert has painted some of my favorite artworks (and are well worth seeing in person,) would you happen to have anymore?

Is there a standard aspect ratio for paintings?

>>8105116 (OP)
First time seeing alot of these specifically for me, I've seen other things similar, and I'm often thinking white trashes

>>8115543

Not that guy but an anon another. Ive been here for many year, more than ten its been.

I was once very hateful and belonged to the terrible corners of this place, this is no longer the case. Still, I come back to this board from time to time, unlike the others.

It warms me to see such beauty here, thank you for this wonderful collection anon. May you witness a garden of your creation, showered by blessed rain.

same. I try to avoid this place because of the negative energy, but there’s still some interesting stuff around to find and to share. I’m glad you enjoyed the paintings, and thanks, I wish the same for you anon

Great thread OP.

Out of curiosity, where are you finding such high quality photos of paintings? I've tried looking for them in the past through google and everything was either terrible resolution or had a watermark until I paid for it. I'd love to get some impressionism/abstract as my computer wallpaper, I've been doing it for years with my phone's wallpaper

>>8116778
I look up paintings on google, then use yandex reverse search to find higher resolution versions. in the case of paintings on google arts, I use Dezoomify to download them in full size since they can't be downloaded otherwise

>>8116487
U just imagine everyone being teenagers and i just laugh it off and start shitposting along

>>8115930
nice blogposting

>>8111537
>starts crying about white people out of nowhere
really makes you think

>>8111537
If you were half as enlightened as you think you are, you would have kept your faggot mouth shut instead of bringing politics into this thread completely unprovoked.

Hey, OP, I just wanted to say a big thanks for sharing these. It's a great collection, and I saved a lot of them. Good thread.

does anyone got this one? I use it on my lockscreen but it completly vanished from my pc

>>8119609

Amazing thread. Do you have any of Zdzisław Beksiński's paintings?

>>8111754
