Daily fix for all the art history lovers on tumblr.
Histoire is simply the French word for history, but it also has the dual meaning of story. That's what art is. The history of our human story.

I got my tattoo for my 18th birthday. It was done by Jerry from Calculated Punkture in Brentwood, CA.
When I was really young, I would go with my mother to her art history class. One of the few pieces I remember is The Persistence of Memory by Salvador Dali. Since I’m going to be an art history major, I thought it was the perfect piece to start my art sleeve.
The entire thing took about three hours and it didn’t really hurt except for the blue and yellow shading at the elbow.
