The Monarch of the Glen by Sir Edwin Landseer

i always enjoyed this painting, but it's a piece that made me appreciate seeing art in person because the scale of it is so striking and adds so much. it's wonderful to look at on a screen, but when i was in the national gallery in edinburgh and i turned the corner and saw this i was absolutely blown away

MONET’S WORK

I never really understood the hype about Monet until I saw his work in person a few years ago. I was blown away at the vibrancy of the colors. I bought a print that obviously does not compare at all to the real thing, and I wish often that I could go back specifically to see that exhibition, which is now closed.

STARING AT THIS PAINTING OF JOAN OF ARC

it’s one of the most impressive paintings i’ve seen in person. there’s a bench right in front and the work itself allows you to get lost in it’s setting so easily. It becomes difficult to tell how much time passes.
