You just need to change the title of your photofile.......add some numbers to make the file name different..

apple.jpeg to something like apple2015.jpeg

All photo images have to have a unique file name  :)

Rivals? Hierarchy?

That's what it looks like to me as well, but doesn't really make sense. I suppose we'd have to see the painting to see if that title fits the subject.

The writing it at bottom of a painting of a white stallion
Title: Re: Painting
Post by: Gadget on Tuesday 03 February 15 12:42 GMT (UK)
I'm not sure that it is harmony - could it be hierarchy  :-\

 


Added - I seem to have missed a few posts
Title: Re: Painting
Post by: Gadget on Tuesday 03 February 15 12:54 GMT (UK)
Is there anything else in the painting as I'm sure that a white stallion represents   high  social position (i.e. hierarchy) in some mythological schemas.
Title: Re: Painting
Post by: groom on Tuesday 03 February 15 13:33 GMT (UK)
I'm sure it's not harmony, the letters aren't right for that, there is a letter with a long ascender line near the end of the word.

Hi there, does anyone know the name of the one who made this painting? I believe the text is: Everyday life in rivals and hierarchy. I can not read the signature. Thanx for your answers.

As been previously said, you will need to post the whole picture. There is nothing remotely coming up in various searches.

It's probably not a well-known painting, as there are hundreds and thousands of amateur artists around. As we haven't yet seen the painting, it is impossible to speculate and the title, if it is a quote, doesn't seem to be from any known work.

Thanx for the answers..love this painting! I would like to know more about this work.  ;D

Looks rather like pastel.
Two hooves aren't much to go on, though.

You're right  ;D

There's some nice work in that, I can see why you like it. The signature's illegible though and unless there's  a name on the back, I doubt you'll be able to identify the artist.
Is it behind glass? Definitely looks like pastel to me.

This is the artist Joadoor

Joadoor

The artist name Joadoor labels the work of two Dutch artists, Ger Doornink and Hans-Jochem Bakker. Both men are conceptual artists, painters and photographers. Their work is characterized by Neo-Classical style that covers works of various themes. The images the duo creates are images from classical Roman, traditional Chinese and medieval Gothic traditions.

Together, Joadoor explore ancient and classical art styles and develop new, contemporary images that are distinctively Joadoor. Their paintings show a mystical world and vivid cultures, such as in Symbiosis I and II, which displays their adeptness at mixing medium and method. The rich colors and elegant cultures that Joadoor bring to their paintings and photographs set them apart as Contemporary artists.

Before seeing the additional comments and noting that this has been solved, I wondered if the artist was non English speaking as the "phrase" in question does not seem to make sense.

So I think possibly something lost in translation somewhere.

I also wondered if this was a print rather than an original.

Well executed but not my cup of tea.  ;)
