    I just love studying how culture cross pollination leads to art movement’s throughout history ie. how Japanese prints are largely responsible for the Impressionist and Post impressionist movements in Europe or how the Mughal Emperors of India had Paintings of a Greek God on the ceiling, in the Palace of Muslim rulers.

      I’m curious about Japanese prints! Tell me more. I didn’t know they influenced impressionism. Woodblock prints are really cool.

      Also didn’t know that about the Mughals, wild.
