If there is any way you can find the time try to see the very small but remarkable exhibit called UNEARTHED at the Clark Institute in Williamstown Ma. This is short notice because the exhibit closes on the 21st of October.
This is a museum that has a wonderful collection. Most of which is not available to be seen for the next few years as the museum is undergoing a major refurbishing.
The John Singer Sargent hung for so many years in the entrance.
Nice shots. The Sargent painting is called “Ambergris”. This is a waxy deposit found in the carcasses of dead whales. It is prized as a base for the making of the finest perfumes. The lady in the painting seems to be inhaling the fumes from burning the stuff.
Landscape photos remind me of my days at Berkshire School, Sheffield MA, “Under the Mountain”, Thanks, Steve!
