《I abandon here my love》
I had an idea at the end of August, just finished a tour of the Elden Ring:Shadow of the Erdtree, and was fascinated by the idea of "I abandon here my love", thinking of Napoleon and Josephine's divorce, I drew a draft at that time, so the initial draft had a lot to do with Elden Ring:Shadow of the Erdtree, and the title of the painting is "I abandon here my love," There is also a light pillar corresponding to Miquella's cross between the two people, and the dynamic is also the gesture that Napoleon let go of Josephine will fall to the ground. When the formal painting is probably the reason that the mind has cooled down after three months, i think it is not appropriate, so I abandon about the Elden Ring's idea here (?) However,The idea was interesting, so the name and draft were kept.
may god grant us a pope who knows what it is to exist between the world’s certainties
Napoleons boney parts………..
so I clipped the additional scene with Tsar Alexander from the director’s cut of Ridley Scott’s Napoleon
Bizarrely it’s in Russian (and a really bad one at that) so I translated what I understood under the cut if someone is curious. I don’t know who the man in the red coat is supposed to be (my best guess is Lord Witworth, the English ambassador to Russia). All in all the scene does little to add depth to the conflict between Russia and France because seemingly the only reason Alexander is even torn about going to war is that he might lose again
Man in red: “What’s good for your friend Napoleon is bad for Russia. And what’s bad for Russia can’t be good for your Majesty. Trade with Britain (?) is essential for the greatness of Russia. Your father made a grave mistake by putting himself above the interests of his country. I wouldn’t want to see your Majesty become… unpopular with the Russian people.”
Alexander: “I am not my father. You’re making a mistake that you will regret if you think that I am like him. Russia will ally itself with the English once more. I am not afraid of Napoleon”
Omg why all the community draws so well like omg it's beautiful their drawings of Robespierre or Napoleon is that omg how beautiful why they draw so beautiful I would like to draw like them but how omg too much art for my eyes omg omg I can’t
You've heard of Robespierre's long legs, now get ready for Marat's strong arms
I said "I don't think he had arms like this in real life ?" and @frevandrest replied "he had them, spiritually" which is absolutely true
couple goals amiright
