one day left to live series - 42 months and 25 days

We've visited the Kimbell Art Museum couple of times now. It's the best museum I ever visited in Dallas. The collection was refreshing, which includes Michelangelo, Picaso, Braque, Monet.
In the recent past they had an exhibition on Bernini's clay sculpture methods. More than all these high end art museums Sripthi seemed to like art by elementary school and middle school kids. I'll do a post about our visit to the Irving Art Center later.

Some of my favorites were
1. LORD GROSVENOR'S ARABIAN STALLION WITH A GROOM - George Stubbs


2. HORSE AND RIDER - China, probably Shaanxi province


3. EQUESTRIAN PORTRAIT OF THE DUKE OF BUCKINGHAM - Peter Paul Rubens


4. LA POINTE DE LA HÈVE AT LOW TIDE - Claude Monet


5. THE STONECUTTERS - Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot


6. MAN WITH A PIPE - Pablo Picasso


7. GIRL WITH A CROSS - Georges Braque


Yes I like paintings with horses!
