Beauty inspires

Today I got my visa, hoorah! And I bought my ticket!

Sometimes a painting can be like an old friend. I visited the Getty yesterday, and these 2 paintings still cause me jaw to drop.



Monet- Sunrise



Renoir- La Promenade

and one new one, Rembrandt's St. Bavo, which I can't find online, but which bears a slight resemblance to this:



Except that the Saint is a Falconer, so has a falcon instead of a monkey.

Leaving for India tomorrow, September 24th, 2009.
