Women in Art
From Manet to Monet, Klimt to Picasso, this astonishing animation by Eggman Films beautifully chronicles the most post muse of them all: a beguiling, beautiful female face. Taking as its raw material some of the best paintings in 500 years of Western art, the film makes it clear that while form and execution continue to evolve, the inspiration for its creation remains very much the same.
Maybe this will do for art what what "We Didn't Start the Fire" did for history students. If you haven't yet studied art history, you may want to start after watching this exquisite 3-minute short.
