Mary Cassatt’s Little Girl in a Blue Armchair, 1878
Close-up of dog in Cassatt’s “Little Girl in a Blue Armchair”
There is an exciting exhibit coming to the National Gallery of Art in Washington. Degas/Cassatt opens on May 11 and will feature 70 pieces by the two Impressionists that will highlight their friendship. The curators there recently discovered that it appears that Degas may have actually painted a few strokes on the well-known Cassatt painting “Little Girl in Blue Armchair”. It’s fascinating. Read about it here.
Sleeping Lincoln
I love this painting that I have seen many time but a couple of years ago, right after Lincoln came to live with us, I had to take a double take when looking at the painting. It seems that Lincoln was a wealthy French dog in a former life. He has been reincarnated and now lives with us in Virginia. The pup in the painting looks just like my sleeping Lincoln.
Don’t you think?
