Whats fascinating about them is the sharp contract between these two characters. These two paintings are Rembrandt when he was young and when he was old. Its this type of achievement what can amaze people and really show its value.Р”Р‡inally here are two self Portraits by Rembrandt This painting looks like a celebration of property,m but it is also a painting about the mystery of life and time as we look up to the stars. The moment had been preserved.The painting looks like the womanРІР‚в„ўs hand is holding the moment between her thumb and forefinger, on the scales of past and the future. The light shines on her face, her fingers and her pearls. However the more you look at this painting, the more mysterious it becomes. Just looking at this painting, all I can see is a women weighting the value of her gold and pearls. This painting is a woman holding a balance by Vermeer. I was an object of respect and envy, I only had to raise my hand to receive attention. They have the wealth to commission an artist to paint a portrait of them which basically says I once existed and looked like this. What these painting represent is the power the duke, king or general has shown. But artists have created static images of wealthy and powerful people by painting portraits. Gods and princes were worshiped and the static image was there so they could be worshiped. Paintings and art have celebrated wealth and power. The painting had objects and people that felt real and owning the painting was like owning the objects and people in it What makes European oil paints so unique is their focus on weight, texture and grasp ability what was depicted. What are these paintings? Before they are anything else, they are objects that are bought and owned by the archduke himself.

This painting is The Art Collection of Archduke Leopold-Wilhelm in BrusselsР’В by David Teniers the Younger.Р’В This painting tells us more about art then paintings since the Renaissance than hundreds of art books and articles. What gives art is value? Is it because of those who love art and worship it as a kind of religion? However you cannot explain anything in history by a love of art Where does this value come from and what determines it? Some paintings are seen as worthless while some are sold for a huge price. Whats interesting about paintings is that their value is mysterious. In art galleries they are guarded under tight security to prevent the paintings from being stolen. Paintings often have treasures in them and yet paintings are also seen as treasures. But the objects in the painting often appear tangible as those outside it. Oil paintings depict things that are buy able in real life which are objects. But out of them all, the most valuable is the oil painting.

We tend to collect objects and treasures. John talks about that we tend to buy thing in our lives.
