Paintings

Feel a bit underwhelmed by most paintings but can appreciate the lifelike ones like the above. The attention to detail is incredible.

I've got relatives who were friends with John Bellany and maybe the few paintings in their house put me off. Pretty odd things to look at when you're a kid TBH.

To me that's just terrifying, I know...philistine etc.

Is it not in Vienna Rover? I've not managed to get there yet, there are beautiful Gustav Klimt pieces I'd like to see too.

I just looked that up - it is indeed in the Kunsthistorisches, Vienna. I have been inn there - I remember the Breugels but not this Vermeer. Shame on me.
