The Year of Jubileeby *KristinaGehrmann

My web portfolio!

The year is 1500, and Cesare Borgia celebrates the state and his family by leading a triumph procession through Rome.

I'm not sure how many figures are in this painting; I stopped counting at twenty-one.
Ever since I was a teenager I've had a secret crush on giant, pompous, oversized, overcrowded historical paintings (_{yes, yes, I know that cramming lots of people into a painting doesn't automatically make it good}), or pretend-historical paintings. There's a huge painting by Hans Makart in the Hamburg Kunsthalle that I'm in love with

Ah well. My next one will be much, much simpler. I must focus on the fundamentals of drawing; perspective and anatomy especially. Still got a lot to learn and it's gonna take time; please bear with me.

Medium: Photoshop and Wacom tablet
Time taken: About 30-40 hours, not including wasted hours of procrastination and time spent on searching references.

That's a great canvas ! From the first glance, I thought of the paintings of Breughel

~Bellasmina Feb 21, 2012

Beautiful, really beautiful.

wonderful!! So nicely done- the details of texture on the building are incredible! I find those kinds of things can get very tedious, you did a great job! I love your perspective, the view point to me on this makes it so interesting!

I can't think anymore! This is very breathtaking and beautiful! You make all the details: flower petals, people, buildings... The color is also great!

~AxelManningCatalina Feb 8, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Incredible!

Though I have to admit I did search the picture for assassins!

~Connya Feb 8, 2012 Hobbyist Writer

SO stunning. Beautiful work

!lestever Feb 8, 2012 Professional Digital Artist

Great work! Love the color scheme you've used. Only suggestion from me is adding some sharp highlights on the brick walls. Also, some sharp shadows would add to to the contrast of the piece but guessing from the cloudy sky, it may look unrealistic if you do so. Either way love it!

and voted here. [link] Hope you'll win

As always, you turn out suburb work. The composition of this piece is especially nice. I love the way you have the colors playing off each other.
