Who painted Captain Daniel Gregg's portrait in The Ghost and Mrs Muir?
Answer -- If you are looking for an answer from the movie or the TV show, there isn't one. It was never stated. According to the book, Daniel Gregg said that the painting was done by a man who paid for his sea passage that way -- and that the painter was also a bigamist! No name was ever given. If you are asking what person (alive) painted the portrait for the movie, I am clueless, but if you are asking who painted the portrait for the TV show, I don't know the name of the artist, but he retained ownership of the painting. When the series was cancelled after two years, the artist offered to sell it to the TV ghost, Edward Mulhare for some very large sum -- like $30.000. Mulhare declined. The painting then went up for auction at Sotheby's Auction house and was sold to a private buyer. Its whereabouts today in 2008 are unknown. The name of the artist who painted the sea captain was John George Vogel. He was an English portrait painter. The reason I know is because he also worked on another portrait entitled, "The Lady" which won first international prize. His show was in the Francis Taylor Gallery (owned by Elizabeth Taylor's father) in Beverly Hills. My mother was walking through his Gallery one day and was approached by Mr. Vogel to paint her portrait. She "sat" for the painting for a year which lends to it's extremely lifelike quality. I know about this artist because the portrait is of my Mother. I have photos to lend provenance, as well, but the painting now hangs in my home. Hey! Your story is cool! I would LOVE to see a photo of the portrait he did of your mother. (I would also LOVE to know what happened to the portrait on the tv show...

How did renaissance thinkers and artists get ideas?
Well.... during the early part of the Renaissance, art was all based on religion because of the iron grip the Papacy had on Europe, especially Italy. This can be illustrated through da Vinci's The Last Supper. Also, many popes and the clergy had started to become patrons of the arts during this time period. Later on though, when secularism, humanism and invidualism started to gain momentum in European society, Christendom was broken into a mostly secular state. Here artists like Pieter Bruegel had freedom to choose their subjects. Many artists chose to paint about technological and idealogical innovation, such as the first combine harvester1 (JK). If you are taking a European History class, your textbook should cover the difference between the Northern and Italian Renaissances. The Northern Renaissance was far more secular in nature than the Renaissance because of its distance from the Vatican. Artists from here chose to paint landscapes and portraits, or daily life (usually of the upper class, who usually commissioned painters).Example: Children's Games by Pieter Bruegel.In Italy, the painters' messages were still more religious. Paintings by esteemed artists such as Michelangelo were slightly removed from Papal2 control, but not entirely.Example: David by Michelangelo, Pieta by Michealangelo, The Last Supper by Leonardo da Vinci.So to sum it up: Renaissance thinkers and artists, most of whom could be considered humanists, were highly influenced by the society in which they lived. While the Church was in complete control, artists' works were completely dedicated to religion. When the Papacy lost control, artists' works became individualistic and secular. I hope this helps.1 I was just kidding about the combine harvester thing hahaha. The combine harvester is a recent invention with its introduction being in 1836.2 Your book probably spells Papal or Papacy with a lowercase "P."About Me:I'm currently a student at Stanford U and I am a chemistry major, but I have a strong passion for history. Just recently I completed a course on Medieval history. In high school I also took AP European History sophomore year.
Why is it that the sum of a number and its opposite is never zero?
This is not the case. The word opposite can be defined many ways mathematically, but generally indicates either the additive or multiplicative inverse. In most cases, opposite is defined as the addictive inverse. Thus, the sum of a number and its opposite is 0, based on the definition of opposite.
