Michael J. Browne, “THE GOAT’S LAST DANCE” BY A CAST-ASIDE FROM MOSS SIDE. 2026

Artist feature of Browne’s incomparable work “The Goats’s Last Dance”. An extraordinary allegorical painting of the Ronaldo family in a carnival procession through life, based on #annibalecarracci Triumph of Bacchus and Ariadne, a Baroque celebration of abundance and #mortal triumph. Carracci’s original depicts Bacchus (god of wine, excess, and fertility) atop a chariot in triumphant procession, surrounded by devoted followers revelling in the fullness of life. Michael J. Browne takes that classical foundation and makes it entirely his own and using sports culture bringing the story entirely modern. This is the last week to view the piece at the National Football Museum in Manchester.

Another important part of Browne’s work is his connection to #Manchester. His #hugepainting Manchester’s Own #NorthernLights celebrates the history and identity of the city. It includes #famouspeople, buildings and events connected to Manchester, including figures such as #EmmelinePankhurst, Alan Turing and the Bee Gees. The Renaissance style creates a link between Manchester’s past and present, while the many individual figures encourage the viewer to look closely and discover different stories within the painting. @mjbfineart

One of Browne’s most well-known paintings is #TheArtoftheGame, created in #1997. The large painting celebrates footballer Eric Cantona and presents him in a Renaissance-inspired composition. Browne’s interest in football is not simply about the sport itself; he uses footballers as important #culturalfigures and explores their personalities, #achievements and influence. The painting was later acquired by Cantona and loaned to the #NationalFootballMuseum. @mjbfineart

Michael J. Browne is a British artist from Moss Side, Manchester, whose artwork combines traditional Renaissance painting with modern subjects and ideas. His work is particularly interesting because he takes inspiration from historical art and uses it to tell stories about contemporary people, culture and society.

Overall, #MichaelJBrowne’s artwork stands out because he combines old artistic traditions with modern subjects. His #paintings celebrate #history, sport, culture and the people who have shaped society. His work shows that #Renaissance-style art can still be used to communicate #contemporary ideas and stories in an exciting and meaningful way. @mjbfineart

R.I.P the great David Hockney - such a fantastic bloke when i interviewed him for a TV show called The Big City on @itv in November 1995 - i think it was the opening of an Exhibition of his drawings and sketches @royalacademyarts - He gave me loads of time and we talked Bradford ,Saltaire , Art School,;1960s, LA Swimming Pools dogs and going to the pub . I was probably the only obvious northerner he spoke to that day - his zest for life was inspiring . @davidhockney_archive @davidhockney @bbcradio4 @frontrowmanchester @mjbfineart @mcrschart #hockney #davidhockney

Just a little taste of what went down in Spain 🇪🇸 a couple of weeks ago at my sexiest birthday with some of the most beautiful people that I’m lucky to call real friends. 🎁 🎈
Thanks to everyone that came & what a great time we had.
If you couldn’t make it, I’ll be partying all year, every year.
I’m going back in Feb if anyone wants to come and help me drink booze 🥃 , eat cake 🍰 & bring home my cards & presents, which my friend is looking after for me. Let me know 💃🏽

Bringing king Eric to Buenos Aires

Last year I organised a huge project in Argentina, Buenos Aires with 4 other Artists to help celebrate the return of Oasis coming back to the country after 16 years. You can find the whole project @muralartmusic & @sketchmcr

This artwork of Eric Cantana is done by my good friend @mjbfineart he’s done many paintings with Eric and I wanted to bring Eric out with me to Argentina.

After seeing pep guardiola on stage every concert I wanted to show a United legend that is king Eric, this first image is me singing ‘ rock n roll star ‘ in the madness of the crowd.

Whilst I was there at the concert many people were asking about the image and loved it!

Oasis and king Eric, thanks Micheal for making it happen 🫶🏻

In life you only get to do these things once and I took that chance

Michael Browne, an incredible artist from Manchester, continues to amaze me. His work isn’t just beautiful; it’s intelligent. Every piece reflects deep research into history, religion, and culture. layers of meaning that invite you to look closer and think deeper.

He connects art, knowledge, and belief , turning complex ideas into visual poetry. mixing Manchester United icons with historic and religious figures in the most unexpected, thought-provoking ways.

No one else creates like him, I was so honored to visit his show room and personal studio.
We hope to bring his work to Israel!
