portrait as a soldier - Ernst Ludwig Kirchner

portrait as a soldier - Ernst Ludwig Kirchner (1915)
When Kirchner made his "Self-portrait as a soldier" is currently the First World War . Consider this event may be sufficient as a fundamental starting point for a reflection on the work in question and the path of the artist in general.
Kirchner pours into the canvas anxiety and existential drama own man modern, is to assist the horrors of war. He himself is in the conflict in 1915 and just falls victim to a nervous breakdown. Unable to bear the weight of a tragedy so rending.
And there will indeed be a bridge (Brücke) that will lead to a better reality? You can return to a primordial state of purity? (There are many references to art and primitive African) Or everything - and the first man - has changed forever?
The artist will not release other than in extreme act of suicide.

Andrea Camilleri writes in the preface of the book "The Waltz of a day":
Carlisi's eye continuously captures the "off" and got them back, I would say the narrator, with extraordinary vividness and intensity. A look away, distracted a bride, the appearance of an absent parent for the impending separation. There are no photos in the album will never authorized officer to be the array of memories. The seamstress who breaks with his teeth a little immaculate wedding dress stone. (...) The photos usually crave double evanescence, the lightness, purity and solemnity. Instead, through the eyes of Carlisi, everything became flesh, lived, strong, real, no halftones.

The Battle of Anghiari - Leonardo Da Vinci

Copy of the central part of the Battle of Anghiari performed by Paul Rubens

between the two great Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo Buonarroti, there was bad blood! The ideal situation to compare their capacity was offered by the standard-bearer of the Florentine Republic (Soderini Pier) in 1503. He gave to both the realization of a battle for the walls of a room in the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Leonardo had to deal with the Battle of Anghiari, while that of Michelangelo's House.
However fate would have it, neither was completed .
Leonardo, who want to experiment with the technique of encaustic, failed to obtain the desired result. While Michelangelo, after realizing that the cartoon was used for the fresco, was asked to Rome by Pope Julius II. Then
was called to decorate the room Giorgio Vasari. At this point the story gets lots of cases, almost invading the domain of legend.
It is not known, in fact, if the artist has destroyed the remains of Leonardo's work, or has only hidden. Recent studies have revealed the existence of an empty space on the wall.
It 'possible that Vasari, among other things a great admirer of Leonardo, he has built a second to preserve the work of his predecessor? The particular
more curious is that a green flag appears in an inscription apparently unusual for the context in which it appears: "Search, find".
