The 'mosaic' refers to the unique process that Belcher developed, for which he filed over 20 patents. Instead of the traditional grouting approach, Belcher's method involved a kind of mould. He'd first lay the various pieces of glass out in a design (hence the 'mosaic' aspect), and then sandwich it between two layers of asbestos (picking up the design with a gummed first piece and then closing it with a second). Having earlier made sure there was a gap between each piece of the design, he'd then pour molten lead into the make-shift mould, thus binding the various fragments together. The innovative approach allowed him to create quite stunningly detailed designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe designs fell into several categories those with a floral theme, those for use in a transom with a house number, those with neoclassic elements popular in the late 19th century, and several pictorial scenes.

While his fame initially rested on his achievements as a painter, he has also become known for his notebooks, in which he made drawings and notes on a variety of subjects including anatomy, astronomy, botany, cartography, painting, and palaeontology. Leonardo is widely regarded to have been a genius who epitomised the Renaissance humanist ideal, and his collective works comprise a contribution to later generations of artists matched only by that of his younger contemporary Michelangelo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn out of wedlock to a successful notary and a lower-class woman in, or near, Vinci, he was educated in Florence by the Italian painter and sculptor Andrea del Verrocchio. He began his career in the city, but then spent much time in the service of Ludovico Sforza in Milan. Later, he worked in Florence and Milan again, as well as briefly in Rome, all while attracting a large following of imitators and students. Upon the invitation of Francis I, he spent his last three years in France, where he died in 1519.

Some of his smaller inventions, however, entered the world of manufacturing unheralded, such as an automated bobbin winder and a machine for testing the tensile strength of wire. He made substantial discoveries in anatomy, civil engineering, hydrodynamics, geology, optics, and tribology, but he did not publish his findings and they had little to no direct influence on subsequent science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 30 images","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50377228616010,"sku":"","price":4.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/LeonardodaVinci30HighResolutionImages.jpg?v=1747039209"},{"product_id":"hokusai-69-high-resolution-images","title":"Hokusai 69 High Resolution Images","description":"\u003cp\u003eKatsushika Hokusai, also known simply as Hokusai, was a talented artist of the Edo period in Japan.

In a long and successful career, Hokusai produced over 30,000 paintings, sketches, woodblock prints, and images for picture books. Innovative in his compositions and exceptional in his drawing technique, Hokusai is considered one of the greatest masters in the history of art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHokusai was known by at least thirty names during his lifetime. While the use of multiple names was a common practice of Japanese artists of the time, his number of pseudonyms exceeds that of any other major Japanese artist. His name changes are so frequent, and so often related to changes in his artistic production and style, that they are used for breaking his life up into periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the age of 12, his father sent him to work in a bookshop and lending library, a popular institution in Japanese cities, where reading books made from woodcut blocks was a popular entertainment of the middle and upper classes. At 14, he worked as an apprentice to a woodcarver, until the age of 18, when he entered the studio of Katsukawa Shunshō. Shunshō was an artist of ukiyo-e, a style of woodblock prints and paintings that Hokusai would master, and head of the so-called Katsukawa school. Ukiyo-e, as practiced by artists like Shunshō, focused on images of the courtesans (bijin-ga) and kabuki actors (yakusha-e) who were popular in Japan's cities at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter a year, Hokusai's name changed for the first time, when he was dubbed Shunrō by his master. It was under this name that he published his first prints, a series of pictures of kabuki actors published in 1779. During the decade he worked in Shunshō's studio, Hokusai was married to his first wife, about whom very little is known except that she died in the early 1790s. He married again in 1797, although this second wife also died after a short time. He fathered two sons and three daughters with these two wives, and his youngest daughter Ei, also known as Ōi, eventually became an artist and his assistant. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHokusai had achievements in various fields as an artist. He made designs for book illustrations and colour woodblock prints, sketches, and painting for over 70 years. Hokusai was an early experimenter with Western linear perspective among Japanese artists. Hokusai himself was influenced by Sesshū Tōyō and other styles of Chinese painting. His influence stretches across the globe to his Western contemporaries in nineteenth-century Europe with Japonism, which started with a craze for collecting Japanese art, particularly ukiyo-e. Some of the first samples were to be seen in Paris, when in about 1856, the French printmaker, designer and colleague of many Impressionsist artists such as Édouard Manet, Félix Bracquemond first came across a copy of a Hokusai sketchbook at the workshop of August Dalatre, his printer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the sketchbook as his influence Bracquemond designed the \"Rousseau Service\", an elegant set of dinnerware, on behalf of Francois-Eugene Rousseau, the owner of a glass and ceramics shop. Exhibited at the Universal Exposition in Paris in 1867, the Rousseau Service was a success both critically and commercially and was reissued in several editions over the years. The Rousseau Service featured images of birds and fish copied from the Japanese book illustrations and placed asymmetrically against a white background for a look that would have been very modern at that time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHokusai also influenced the Impressionism movement, with themes echoing his work appearing in the work of Claude Monet and Pierre-Auguste Renoir, as well as Art Nouveau, or Jugendstil in Germany. His woodcuts were collected by many European artists, including Degas, Gauguin, Klimt, Franz Marc, August Macke, Édouard Manet, and van Gogh. Degas said of him, \"Hokusai is not just one artist among others in the Floating World. He is an island, a continent, a whole world in himself\". Hermann Obrist's whiplash motif, or Peitschenhieb, which came to exemplify the new movement, is visibly influenced by Hokusai's work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe French composer Claude Debussy's tone poem La Mer, which debuted in 1905, is believed to have been inspired by Hokusai's print The Great Wave. The composer had an impression of it hanging in his living room and specifically requested that it be used on the cover of the published score, which was widely distributed, and the music itself incorporated Japanese-inflected harmonies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 69 images","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50494637998410,"sku":null,"price":4.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Hokusai_69_High_Resolution_Images.jpg?v=1747039184"},{"product_id":"more-matisse-147-high-resolution-images","title":"More Matisse!

Many of his finest works were created in the decade or so after 1906, when he developed a rigorous style that emphasised flattened forms and decorative pattern. In 1917, he relocated to a suburb of Nice on the French Riviera, and the more relaxed style of his work during the 1920s gained him critical acclaim as an upholder of the classical tradition in French painting. After 1930, he adopted a bolder simplification of form. When ill health in his final years prevented him from painting, he created an important body of work in cut paper collage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatisse was born in Northern France on New Year's Eve in 1869, the oldest son of a wealthy grain merchant. In 1887, he went to Paris to study law, working as a court administrator after gaining his qualification. He started to paint in 1889 after his mother brought him art supplies during a period of convalescence following an attack of appendicitis. He discovered 'a kind of paradise' as he later described it, and decided to become an artist, deeply disappointing his father.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1891, he returned to Paris to study art at the Académie Julian under William-Adolphe Bouguereau and at the École Nationale des Beaux-Arts under Gustave Moreau. Initially he painted still lifes and landscapes in a traditional style, achieving reasonable proficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1896, Matisse, an unknown art student at the time, visited the Australian painter John Russell on the island of Belle Ile off the coast of Brittany. Russell introduced him to Impressionism and to the work of Vincent van Gogh, who had been a friend of Russell, and gave him a Van Gogh drawing. Matisse's style changed completely, abandoning his earth-coloured palette for bright colours. He later said Russell was his teacher, and that Russell had explained colour theory to him. The same year, Matisse exhibited five paintings in the salon of the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, two of which were purchased by the state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the model Caroline Joblau, he had a daughter, Marguerite, born in 1894. In 1898, he married Amélie Noellie Parayre; the two raised Marguerite together and had two sons, Jean (born 1899) and Pierre (born 1900). Marguerite and Amélie often served as models for Matisse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee our \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Henri Matisse Video - Artwork in the Public Domain\" href=\"\/pages\/videos-henri-matisse-artwork-in-the-public-domain\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHenri Matisse Video - Artwork in the Public Domain\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 147 images","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53125462917450,"sku":null,"price":6.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/More_Matisse_Henri_Matisse_147_High_Resolution_Images.jpg?v=1761344200"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/collections\/Print_on_Demand-7776620.jpg?v=1768958960","url":"https:\/\/www.publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/inspiration.oembed","provider":"Public Domain Image Library","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
