Ready for a picture heavy post? By popular request, I’m sharing more of the photos I took the other day at the Art Museum.

Here goes.

This is the first gallery you see as you enter the museum. The lady in the foreground was a longtime employee of the museum and the artist Alex Katz made this in honor of her. It’s titled, “Margie.” There’s a photo of her standing next to the figure. (1971)

The figure in the background is made from rugs. “Sound suit” by Nick Cave (2009)

In the same gallery, She-ba, by Romare Bearden (1970)

Silhouettes, cut from paper, by the artist Kara Walker. (2013)

Salvador Dali – Apparition of Face and Fruit Dish on a Beach (1938)

René Magritte – Les Intermittences du Coeur (The Fickleness of the Heart) (1950)

Pablo Picasso – The Artist (1963)

Winslow Homer – Rocky Coast (Maine Coast) (1882-1900)

John Singer Sargent – Ruth Sears Bacon (I love this.) (1887)

Henri Matisse – The Ostrich Feather Hat (1918)

Claude Monet – The Beach at Trouville (1870)

Claude Monet – Nymphéas (Water Lilies) – (1907)

Vincent Van Gogh – Self Portrait (1887)

Franz Hals – Portrait of Joseph Coymans (1644)

One of the portrait galleries.

The museum has a vast collection of American Decorative Arts, where I encountered some of my favorite designers:

Charles and Ray Eames

Marcel Breuer

Frank Lloyd Wright

Gustav Stickley

It’s an amazing and wondrous museum and if I get over there again before my stay here ends, I’ll take more photos, okay?

In the meantime, I’m supposed to go home tomorrow and we’re getting at least 6 inches of heavy, wet snow today. Do you sense a pattern here? If I decide to make the trip home…it snows.

Cross your fingers for me!

Happy Friday.
