Pandora


I fell in love 
with this painting
Last 4th of July
Metropolitan Museum of Art
New York City.

I don't think this picture gives it justice.

Surely you've heard of that before. But I really mean it.

I stopped at it. Stared at it for a while. Took a picture, in hopes that I could take the "masterpiece" home with me. Took another picture of the credits next to it. --I must remember the painter, I must remember the painting's title.--

Those colors! The atmosphere! It is beautiful (in my humble opinion, of course.)

Oh, the artist you ask? Odilon Redon.
                           French.

If you want to learn more about him, here is a wikipedia link.
