is di chirico proto-vaporwave?
No but post more de Chirico anyway.

ooh ooh post the one with the bananas!
>>2404628
he's proto-surrealist
dunno if "vaporwave" ripped off his style or not because I don't keep up with teenager art movements
Dump time!
He really had a varied style over his career.
Foreshadowing his turn away from metaphysical artwork, eventually settling on neo-baroque pieces.
Two under drawings next.
Skipping ahead chronologically because I got lazy renumbering the years before the titles.
And this is when I gave up renumbering altogether, the rest are alphabetical sorry anons.
He liked horses a lot.
thanks for these m8, very interesting

That's an interesting connection. It's possible there was a similar motivation behind both movements, albeit in a completely different time period, setting, context, etc.
Here is a venn diagram I started. Feel free to add, or revise it, maybe we can get an interesting debate going!

No problem anon!

Many of de Chirico's works involved themes of metaphysics, isolation, loneliness, nostalgia, and melancholy. Nostalgia is a huge thing in vaporware, and the surreal, almost metaphysical appearance of many vaporware pieces do align in principle. Further, some prominent vaporware pieces feature neo-classical and neo-baroque elements, which de Chirico was all over in his later career.
I'd say the two have more than a few passing resemblances for sure.

Are you getting these from wikimedia commons/wikiart.org? That's usually my first source for finding images in chronological order.

Yep!
He repainted this one a few times, here they are chronologically.
Oh I guess it was just three then.
I'm ending it with some of his self portraits.
And that's it folks!
