I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad

The Demon Flying & The Fallen Demon
These two paintings (1899, 1902) have been created by Mikhail Aleksandrovich Vrubel, one of the main artists of the Russian Symbolist tradition and a pioneer of Modernist art.
Vrubel explored the "demonic" theme in multiple paintings, starting with his Demon that depicted the main character of Mikhail Lermontov's poem by the same name. The Demon Flying and The Fallen Demon are a continuation of the same topic within his art, though now also partially inspired by Alexander Pushkin's The Prophet.
last night i dreamt i was gifted a burlap sack containing with all the varietys of sting rays in the world. for some reason i decided to enjoy these sting rays by taking each one of them out while lying in bed. i would hold each one up to my face to look into their eyes. when i held the final one its eyes opened and they were huge and catlike and it started biting my hand and then i realized i forgot to put the second to last one down and it started biting my other hand. finally i shook them off and ran to my computer to google "stingray bites poisonous" and the results were just the words "its fine" really big letters
