His collection of masterpieces continues to draw great interest, and this is especially true within the collector’s market, where his paintings are sold for jaw-dropping monetary sums. Last year [one of his *Waterlilies* paintings sold for over £31 million,](http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-27991977) and earlier this month his painting of [*Le Grand Canal* went for over £23 million](http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2015/feb/04/sothebys-auction-highest-sales-total-ever) at Sotheby’s Impressionist and Modern Art Sale, becoming the **highest seller of the night**. There were five paintings by Monet in the evening auction, with their sales totaling **a massive £55.74 million** – certainly not a sum to be sniffed at.

It took a simple mix up, when his wife accidentally set his work in progress on its side, for him to find **artistic truth**. Kandinsky's art was an extension of his spiritual thoughts and the **abstract works** that he created inspired many artists and art movements.

The two anatomically '[perfect](http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2015/feb/02/michelangelo-bronzes-sculptures-fitzwilliam-museum-cambridge)' panther-riders are thought to be the **only lasting sculptures** in bronze made by the late master.  Such is Michelangelo's pedigree, that even a relatively modest set such as this can cause art forums to go into meltdown. The reason for this is simple: Michelangelo is one of the most **highly revered** artists of all time. His work on the the Sistine Chapel and of course, the statue of David, are arguably two of the most iconic pieces of art of all time.  [Read More](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77642/Michelangelo-and-His-Sculptures-Masterpieces-of-Art) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77642/Michelangelo-and-His-Sculptures-Masterpieces-of-Art#comments-listing) Topics: [Michelangelo](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/michelangelo), [Masterpieces of Art](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/masterpieces-of-art) ## [Klimt’s Tree of Life and the Stoclet Frieze | Art of Fine Gifts](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77616/Klimt-s-Tree-of-Life-and-the-Stoclet-Frieze-Art-of-Fine-Gifts) Posted by [Gillian Whitaker](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/author/gillian-whitaker) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/hs-fs/file-3071775935-jpg/images/tree_of_life_sketchbook.jpg) ](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77616/Klimt-s-Tree-of-Life-and-the-Stoclet-Frieze-Art-of-Fine-Gifts) **Our new series of blank sketchbooks** is set to showcase the works of art of a number of great artists, including the much-celebrated Gustav Klimt and his [*Tree of Life*](http://www.flametreepublishing.com/Gustav-Klimt--Tree-of-Life-Blank-Sketch-Book.html). A **beautiful yet beguiling** image, we thought we’d explore this work of art in more detail today, tracing its history and possible meanings as well as investigating its position in *The Stoclet Frieze*. Klimt is one of our favourite artists, and if you’re a fan too then a few of our previous blogposts may be of interest – we’ve written about Klimt and the [Art Nouveau](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/72084/Art-Nouveau-Artists-Gustav-Klimt), and specific works like [the Kiss](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/76080/Masterpieces-of-Art-The-Kiss) and [The Woman in Gold](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77450/The-Woman-in-Gold-Art-Nouveau-Artists). The latter blog looked at the **lavish gold coating** Klimt employed as a technique, and the influence of his father (as a silver and gold engraver) in Klimt’s use of methods and materials. *The Stoclet Frieze* (1909), a group of Mosaics in the Stoclet Palace, was also designed and painted during **Klimt’s ‘Golden Era’**, and was actually the only landscape he created in this period.

Mondrian's work was crucial to the development of modern art and even had a massive impact on architecture, furniture and popular culture. In his early years as an artist, however, he created traditional pieces and even rejected modern art. So how, then, did Mondrian become the artist as we know him today? We are going to look at his **early influences and development** as an artist to find out.

The hashtag ran rife, with people posing in front of famous paintings, re-sharing the [altered Vermeer image](http://tumblr.austinkleon.com/post/41368831590), and making museum exhibits look desperate to take a picture of themselves. The craze of the selfie in recent years – ‘selfie’ was named [Oxford Dictionary’s 2013 Word of the Year](http://blog.oxforddictionaries.com/press-releases/oxford-dictionaries-word-of-the-year-2013/) – highlights what could be described as an **addiction to self-portraiture**, and the enthusiasm for the ‘museum selfie’ in particular indicates a fundamental need or desire to acknowledge that self: for the photographer to become a part of the photo and exist within its created art. With the upcoming release of Flame Tree’s ‘Edvard Munch: Masterpieces of Art’, we thought we’d have a look at how Munch’s **tormented and emotionally vibrant paintings** depict the self, and how his emotions and experiences flavour as well as constitute the subject matter of his work [Read More](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77535/Edvard-Munch-s-Oscillations-of-the-Self-Masterpieces-of-Art) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77535/Edvard-Munch-s-Oscillations-of-the-Self-Masterpieces-of-Art#comments-listing) Topics: [Edvard Munch](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/edvard-munch), [Masterpieces of Art](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/masterpieces-of-art) ## [Van Gogh's 125 Legacy | Masterpieces of Art](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77520/Van-Gogh-s-125-Legacy-Masterpieces-of-Art) Posted by [Matt Knight](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/author/matt-knight) - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/hs-fs/file-3071774520-jpg/images/vg100-015.jpg) ](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/bid/77520/Van-Gogh-s-125-Legacy-Masterpieces-of-Art) 2015 marks the **125th anniversary** of the death of beloved, world-famous artist Vincent van Gogh.

Similarly to today’s celebrities, it is impossible to separate van Gogh’s troubled life from his works of art. He suffered from severe mental illnesses and relied on the creation of his art as a means of keeping his illness at bay.

It is said to be a fascinating look at not only behind the scenes, but a detailed look at the people who visit – **tourists, school groups, professionals and students.** Geoffrey MacNab, reviewing the documentary in *The Independent* writes, 'Some of the time, Wiseman gives viewers the sense that they are inside the gallery alongside other visitors. At other points, **his camera scrutinises the faces of museum-goers** with the same fascination that the artists whose work hangs in the gallery treated their subjects.' The documentary gets into all the nooks and crannies and no small detail is left out.
