Sunday and Art News
Jan. 29th, 2012 12:45 pmBright sun and a bit warmer. There was a cottontail rabbit in our backyard last night; Chango sat and watched it intently, but I wouldn't let her out until it was gone. *g*
In art news, one of my favorite sites is The History Blog, and they've reported today that Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring is coming to the United States next year! It's part of an exhibition of 35 Dutch Golden Age masters, but the collection will only visit three cities -- San Francisco (January to June 2013), Atlanta (June through September), and New York City (October through January 2014). I am excite! :-D
Also, I am loving the title of this 17th-century Jan Steen painting, which will be included in the exhibition. It really makes me think of Raymond Carver, and that makes me very happy.
