>why Uccello?
It’s hard to say. This painting just struck me like no other has. It’s mystical, I can’t explain it. I’m currently searching for a skilled local painter that can paint me a quality reproduction. I can’t and won’t argue for his greatness, it’s a personal and emotional thing.

>My only passion on this planet is learning about history and I obviously can't do anything worthwhile with that.
I'm the same, but that's not true at all, I literally make money spending my time researching history and putting it into use, never even got a history degree. And no, it has nothing to do with acedemia or tutoring or whatever. Because the 'uses' of history is modern capitalism isn't immediately obvious, you have to seriously get creative to find an outlet, on top of taking a considerable risk in doing so. If you aren't up for it than stick to STEM. I'm not going to tell you exactly what I do because it'll reveal my identity but let's just say it's a fulfillment of my dreams I had as a kid sitting in my room flipping through books of historical illustrations. I get to bring to life the periods I read about all day, however if what I'm doing failed than I would have been considerably set back financially. Pick your poison, take a risk to achieve victory or be content with only survival
