NGAP_090618_1217.JPG: Ginevra de' Benci (obverse)
c. 1474/1478
Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo's portrait of Ginevra de' Benci is the single painting by the artist in America. The young Florentine lady, who was much admired by contemporaries for her culture, beauty, and character, appears on the front of double-sided wooden panel. She sits before a juniper bush, an evergreen that not only provides a dark foil to enhance her pale features, but also alludes to Ginevra's name: the Italian word for juniper is "ginepro".
On the back of the panel, a wreath of laurel and palm branches encircling a juniper sprig is depicted. Entwined around the plants is a scroll with a Latin inscription meaning "Beauty Adorns Virtue." Together, the plants and the text present an emblematic portrait of Ginevra; the laurel and palm are common symbols for intellectual and moral virtue, and the Latin word for beauty artfully twines about the juniper.
The wreath is truncated at the bottom, indicating that the panel was cut down at some time after its completion in the 1470's. The portrait on the front of the panel may originally have included the sitter's hands. Despite its less than complete state, the picture is very well preserved. Its extraordinary delicacy of color and shading was newly revealed by the cleaning and conservation treatment recently undertaken at the Gallery.

Edouard Manet's Ragpicker:
The Norton Simon Museum and the National Gallery of Art have recently entered into a long-term arrangement whereby selected masterpieces from each collection will be lent to the other institution to hang temporarily with its permanent collection.
Norton Simon (1907-1993), one of the great collectors of his age, established the Norton Simon Museum in Pasadena in 1975 to allow public access to his art treasures. Nineteenth-century European painting is one of the major strengths of the collection, with more than 130 works that span the entire century. Among the most impressive of these is Ragpicker by Edouard Manet, which was purchased by Simon in 1968.
The Norton Simon's Ragpicker and the National Gallery's Old Musician and Tragic Actor are from a series of monumental figural compositions that Manet painted in the 1860s, inspired by the old masters, particularly seventeenth-century Spanish painter Diego Valazquez. Manet's debt to Valazquez is evident in the compositions of Ragpicker and Tragic Actor, with nearly life-sized figured placed against an ambiguous backdrop, giving the works an austere, theatrical appearance. The influence of Valazquez can also be recognized in the relatively comber palette and vibrant brushwork of all three paintings. Even the humble subject matter is rooted in the traditions of seventeenth-century art, which Manet adapted to create direct and unsentimental images of people on the margins of society.

2009 photos: Equipment this year: I mostly used the Fuji S100fs. I've also got a Nikon D90 and a newer Fuji -- the S200EHX -- both of which are nice but I still prefer the flexibility of the Fuji.
Trips this year:
Niagara Falls, NY,
New York City,
Civil War Trust conferences in Gettysburg, PA and Springfield, IL, and
my 4th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including Los Angeles, Yosemite, Death Valley, Kings Canyon, Joshua Tree, etc).
Ego strokes: I had a picture of a Lincoln-Obama cupcake sculpture published in Civil War Times and WUSA-9, the local CBS affiliate, ran a quick piece on me. A picture that I took at the annual Abraham Lincoln Symposium appeared in the National Archives' "Prologue" magazine. I became a volunteer with the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
Number of photos taken this year: 417,000.
