Just type in the name of the piece and write summary/meaning/symbolism/understanding etc.
Most do since there is a lot more than meets the eye, take this for example.

My favorite one;
>A young woman delicately holds an empty pair of scales in her right hand. She seems to be waiting for them to balance out before she weighs something, probably the gold coins at the edge of the table.
>Also on the table are some jewels, pearl necklaces and a gold chain. On the far wall hangs a painting of the Last Judgment (right) while: on the left wall facing the woman is a mirror. The contrast between the valuable objects on the table, the Last Judgment and the scales, symbols of the Judgment itself, are intended to remind the viewer of the importance of resisting the temptation of earthly riches and living moderately in order to obtain salvation. The calmness of the young woman's feature's indicates that she is capable of living according to these principles.

This is not art. It was just an excuse for a guy to stare at a naked chick for 4 hours then most likely fuck her. No one looks at this and thinks its art other than homos.

And as for the models in the paintings, fuck them. Degenerate whores.

If anybody wants to see a really great place to look at pictures of weapons and armor and stuff like that look up the Flickr of a guy named Carl Koppeschaar. Just Google his name and you'll find it. He's visited tons of museums and other places like that all over Europe some great photos.

Anyone have the knight who might have been a prince dismount his horse to look at a fallen man and his horse? I hate being unable to accurately describe it.

WOW, I am so humbled to be an ethnic European!
This thread shows only European artwork and yet that alone is enough to BTFO any other culture/people.
Everything we've done, everything we've achieved, from artwork to technology and science to exploration etc etc, is lightyears ahead of any other people.
It's awe inspiring and I don't feel worthy.

My friend of questionable ethnic origin, this thread is to enjoy and observe works of the European peoples that inspire us and are a source of endless pride. It is not meant to BTFO anyone else.

That being said European culture is still overwhelmingly superior to every other one.

I bet you there really is niggers out there who completely disregard the material used and skip through the man's obviously white features and focus on the pigmentation of the stone and then create a whole historical fictional reality based on that.

Something a Child would do.

I know I know, my flag can't be trusted, but I assure you that I am as pale as they come and have bright orange hair and blue eyes. This is my land and people.
And I wasn't really making it a competition, just saying that Europeans on average are superior in nearly every way, and therefore we necessarily BTFO all others.
