MUSEE D’ORSAY, PARIS

WordPress has been giving me fits, timing out abruptly, losing everything I wrote or listed, locking me out irregularly, We shall see how far I get with this post.

Vincent Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” is such a much seen and much used image; none of which compares to the real thing. I had been a victim of these assaults on my senses to the point I no longer cared to see the original. I am so glad I did. It re-set the standard of beauty.

Daumier’s charactatures a gem of political satire.

The museum itself was originally built as a train station, which was built to impress. It still does today.
