to say: ive studied one artist i know their work
i know the pigments available at that time
i know the brushes they preferred
i know the weight of their hand during those harder years for them
i know in what order they paint in what shadow
i know their preferred varnish
like yea i can tell you to me? i would buy that painting because the claim that it is genuine is true as far as i can see
or dude not a chance not even close that is hoax on hoax forgery
or what a smile, this forgery has so much artistry all its own i love it who even needs the og artist when this is better hell yea for the anon painting
science does not stand for that like a curator does
so we can see a much wider divergence here downstream
science is like: this painting is going under an electron microscope. if we do not have methods yet we will make them. if we do not have tools yet we will make them.
curator like: you are missing the point
imagine misusing a painting
a painting is for enjoyment
for display
for people to experience it
science: sorry im not a trophy hunter i care about truth not acquisition
sometimes siblings disagree
that fight is on worthy grounds
places of:
agree to disagree
is some of the most critical gravity weight bearing math there is
those agree to disagree places are hallowed ground
never ever in a mild way like not scary
so normal
but truly never go for full alignment
