Merry Christmas Everyone

 Not feeling much in the mood this year.   It's been a while.  Still, it is Christmas.

Loved the Hat

 A gentleman I saw at one of the last car shows in my neighboring town.  I loved the hat!

Meet Chet!

The Minneapolis Institute of Art: Botticelli Exhibit.

 Meet The Crouching Aphrodite.

I was able to take my granddaughter to the MIA recently to see the Botticelli exhibit.  She is a budding artist.   It was fun to see her look at artwork that was anywhere from 2000-400 years old.  

This is estimated to be from the 2nd century.  This piece was formerly in the Villa Medici and was restored in the 1500's by adding the head, arms, legs and left foot.  

I am amazed at how the records were kept and that the piece still exists!
