Portrait of a Kleptomaniac - Théodore Géricault (1822) (upload.wikimedia.org)
Part of a series of 10 portraits, a commissioned series for the psychiatrist Étienne-Jean Georget. The Salpêtrière asylum in Paris was like other institutions at the time, nowhere near the level of insight and care provided by modern mental health services. A history of mental illness in the artist’s own family likely made...

Schooled as an architect in his native Santiago, Chile, Matta went to Paris in 1933 to work for the famed modernist architect Le Corbusier.

Train Landscape - Eric Ravilious (1939) watercolour (cdn2.oceansbridge.com)
‘Look at the detail in this painting: the upholstery so carefully and sensitively realised; the window strap that is clearly made of leather and not some artificial material; the window fittings and the striped draught strips. The interior of the railway compartment is so beautifully drawn, with such clarity, that it is not...

St Paul's and Ludgate Hill - William Logsdail (1887) (visualelsewhere.files.wordpress.com)
