Okay so I have been intending to write this post for awhile. I want to share with you some of the artwork I've seen during my excursions in Europe. These works are not necessarily the most *important,* (though some are) but they are the ones that stood out to me for whatever reason. Thus, I give you some paintings and such + my amateur commentary and notes. Enjoy.
The Tower of Babel, 1563 - Kunsthistorsches Museum (Vienna, Austria)
This is in the Egyptian exhibit in the Kunsthistorsches Museum. I was surprised that a sculpture like this could have so much expression in the face. Though made of stone, her face is delicate and kind.
Old and colorful.
Monet, in the Musée Orangerie, Paris. "From far away it's okay..."
"...but up close it's just a big old mess." It's up to you to decide about everyone's favorite impressionist.
