REDHEADS IN ART AND HISTORY

As Google reminds us that today is the 318th anniversary of Giambattista Tiepolo's birth , Venetian (more biographical information HERE),  it seems only right to share this celebration with the following paintings
 Girl with a mandolin (1758-60)
Neptune offering gifts to Venice (1748-50)
Girl with Parrot (1758-60)

    Such delicate beauty. It holds the gaze and mind with its charm and elegance.
    I am reminded of how limited is my knowledge of the arts.

    Thank you for your comment. Art is such a vast universe that it's impossible to have a complete knowledge. On the other hand, it allows one to make new discoveries :-)
