My favourite paintings No. 81 Vittore Carpaccio, St. Augustine in His Studio (1502) St. Augustine was a popular Renaissance subject, and this painting by Vittore Carpaccio is quite typical, but the detail included is intriguing (and often symbolic) but also stands out for the wonderful portrait of the sitting dog looking at St.Augustine. The composition is a guide to the sorts of objects that were typical of C16th elite lives, but is also just charming. #art #TodaysPainting #Renaissance

Day 21 of my ‘Tober Art Prompt List No Pressure Roulette sees us send some nice ladies on shore leave for Trektober. Jadz is happy to have convinced Kira to come relax and breathe in the aromatic vapours in the soothing mineral hot springs of the Hoobishan Baths on Trill, and Kira’s wondering if Jadzia means to be touching Kira’s leg. Which she can’t find it in herself to mind, to be fair. #ds9 #startrek #trektober2026 #trektober #art
