Cat's outta the bag! The votes are in!
Last month we asked for name suggestions for a new face in Getty's galleries, and boy did you deliver.
Welcome to the galleries, Purrquoise! (Everybody say *meow!*)
🐾 This porcelain cat was made in the 1700s in China for export to Europe (where it received its glowing eyes and gilded stool), and was once owned by Madame de Pompadour—the official chief mistress of King Louis XV from 1745 to 1751.
Why didn’t people smile in old photographs? The answer may surprise you!

What was life like for artists in Los Angeles during the 1960s? Photographer Jerry McMillan gives us a glimpse.
Not only a celebrated artist himself, he documented rare moments and stylized portraits of artists like Ed Ruscha, Judy Chicago, Robert Irwin, James Turrell, Ed Bereal, Larry Bell, Joe Goode, and more. The list goes on—McMillan was around for it all.
McMillan passed away in February, but his life’s work can be remembered through his archive which is housed in Getty’s collections and available to be studied by researchers and scholars.

Through time, the color green in art has been made from the copper-derived mineral called malachite, the pale gray-green glaze called celadon, or verdigris—made by hanging copper plates over a hot vinegar bath.
Green has also symbolized everything from life, rejuvenation, rebirth, fertility, and more.
Curious? Learn more about the history of the color green at our #LinkInBio.

What form does your creativity take? For Yasuo Kuniyoshi, it was painting AND photography.
In 1906, Yasuo Kuniyoshi came from Japan to America as a teenager.
After landing in Washington state, he worked odd jobs, learned English, and eventually made his way to Los Angeles, where he enrolled in classes. An encouraging teacher inspired him to go to art school.
He moved to New York in 1910, where he studied painting at the Art Students' League, but around 1919 he began to photograph works of art to earn a living.
Although painting remained his primary medium, in 1935, Kuniyoshi acquired a small-format 35mm camera that allowed him greater freedom and mobility.
He began experimenting with angles and unconventional points of view to make more creative photographs. Soon after, he set up a darkroom at his studio.
Between 1935 and 1939, he made more than 400 photographs, frequently basing paintings on these images.

If you've seen an artwork by Vincent van Gogh, you might have noticed one thing: impasto.
Here's how you can identify it.
Look closely for thick brushstrokes of layered paint. They often stick out from the surface of the painting, giving it a tactile quality.
