Antonello died the year after he painted Portrait of a Young Man, but with this and a handful of similar works, he blazed a trail for all of the great portrait painters who came after him.]]> http://calitreview.com/22943/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/23003 http://calitreview.com/23003#comments Mon, 09 Jan 2012 14:30:42 +0000 Holly Hunt http://calitreview.com/?p=23003 http://calitreview.com/23003/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/22749 http://calitreview.com/22749#comments Thu, 05 Jan 2012 15:00:12 +0000 Holly Hunt http://calitreview.com/?p=22749 http://calitreview.com/22749/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/22783 http://calitreview.com/22783#comments Tue, 03 Jan 2012 15:01:40 +0000 Holly Hunt http://calitreview.com/?p=22783 quilin.) ]]> http://calitreview.com/22783/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/22369 http://calitreview.com/22369#comments Wed, 14 Dec 2011 03:03:41 +0000 Ed Voves http://calitreview.com/?p=22369 http://calitreview.com/22369/feed 2 http://calitreview.com/21476 http://calitreview.com/21476#comments Thu, 10 Nov 2011 14:45:56 +0000 Holly Hunt http://calitreview.com/?p=21476 http://calitreview.com/21476/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/21325 http://calitreview.com/21325#comments Sun, 06 Nov 2011 16:00:26 +0000 Ed Voves http://calitreview.com/?p=21325 http://calitreview.com/21325/feed 0 http://calitreview.com/20918 http://calitreview.com/20918#comments Wed, 19 Oct 2011 14:00:21 +0000 Ed Voves http://calitreview.com/?p=20918 http://calitreview.com/20918/feed 1 http://calitreview.com/20278 http://calitreview.com/20278#comments Thu, 29 Sep 2011 14:00:04 +0000 Ed Voves http://calitreview.com/?p=20278 Woman I to express these suppressed emotions.
