This, of course. But still, as not cool, it all depends on the artist.

Quote Ilya Repin "Distant-close"
 "I can say this on some personal experience. No sweat, as custom portraits!
And how would an artist put any effort, no matter what similarities he has not, the portrait will never be satisfied completely. Certainly there are courageous, frank and intelligent people who all say loudly, for all the honest company, that the portrait is no good. And this last sentence of thunder and will remain in everyone's memory and will seem the most reliable. All other kind talk and compliments the artist were, of course, for decency, for good manners, and one Ivan Petrovich said the real truth. "

At the dawn of the Internet with the work was to be free .
And now ...
Recently commissioned a portrait from the photo , the twin girls , static standing in white dresses, with a gray background .
Proposed to replace the background and give one of the girls , more sad , in the hands of a plush rabbit .
Ordered it banned , said that the second would be offended .
Still needed , something to each of the twins was similar to themselves .
While painting ordered it, liked it, but it's hard to write a portrait with this attitude of the customer.
And it is not about what works here is not speech .
Although , maybe it's my subjective opinion poppin , and among the " avant garde " another customer environments. Although if you look at contemporary art fair , there is the same .
I think in times Bryullova was different . There's more interesting and dresses and women he has found more than one - another , that is artistry was more important than the similarities .

In times of Bryullova and artist , it was a painter and decorator is not as it is now .. in 5 minutes , acrylic work does ... hacks .

The first part of life, the artist learns, the second part of his life working as an artist, and the third part of the life of an artist, ie, wrote it and as I saw fit.


Period of orders is just work, just work.

during Bryullova and the artist is a painter, not a painter , as it is now .. in 10 minutes, acrylic work does ... trash ... not art .

I read this discussion on the background of " arrived " in the St. Petersburg exhibition from the Prado Museum - all 60 masterpieces are made to order . Have not had such a strong impression .

Misunderstanding the question . The expression " good level " may not be applicable to these artists, because it is the "top " level , which no one has not yet surpassed . And this level they have , because they thought were appropriate , ie those that could be expressed only in this way ...
Exhibition of the Prado opens a small painting depicting the Bosch " extracting stone stupidity "from the head of a citizen ... Thought is not weak , and for our time ...
Displayed are all simple means , which may even seem modest . But here's theme ...

Thank you for the picture of Bosch .
The fact is that probably every detail of this painting and the characters have an additional meaning . That we no longer decipher . Picture charms , but even to devote the study of this picture is enough time , we - we can not .
Not to mention that would conceive and bring forth.
Go to the exhibition - has a small feat .
Dicha we are all together , all the art community ...
What if the demand from customers and the public ...
