Can you feel the sizzling summer sun on your skin? ☀️ 🌾 In 1888, Vincent van Gogh left Paris and moved to Arles in the south of France. That summer, he painted a series of vibrant wheat fields, including this stunning piece.

Artist’s painting of a hippopotamus on a flake of limestone. From Deir el-Bahri, Thebes, Egypt, c.1479–1425 BC.
Perhaps a practice sketch, or a template, or maybe just a doodle of a hippo from 3,500 years ago! 🦛❤️

“In 2020, only 17% of 13-year-olds surveyed said they read for fun almost every day. That figure was 27% in 2012 and 35% when data collection began in 1984.”

Born #OnThisDay in 1785, #JohnJamesAudubon traveled thousands of miles to watch, hunt and draw his birds.
In the 1830s, just like today, people marveled at his birds’ liveliness, as if they might fly off the page in a ruffle of feathers 🕊️
