Janet Reno (The Field)I am ignorant to art. Went to a Van Gogh exhibit once, maybe 15 years back, at SAM. That's about it for me.

Click the magnifying glass, and zoom in with your mouse wheel. So many minute details with the people building the tower everywhere. Look at the leaves on the trees. It's like the world's best Where's Waldo -

The Birth of Venus - BotticelliI’ve been to the greatest art galleries and museums in the world. Including the Vatican, Florence, Paris, NYC. To be honest, at each one I wish they served cocktails every 200 feet or so. I always start with great interest. 20 min in I’m bored as hell and would rather be at a bar.

Starry Night over the Rhone - Vincent Van GoghQueef something outta of that art historian twat of yours @Laocoön

Starry Night over the Rhone - Vincent Van GoghVan Gogh is pure genius!! His 3rd & 4th versions of his Sunflowers series are two of my favorite paintings.
Botticelli is my favorite painter from the Renaissance period. His Primavera large panel rates right up there with his Venus piece.
Giotto’s frescoes at the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua are worth a pilgrimage to checkout. Amazing little chapel!!
And I always find myself drawn to Mantegna’s San Sebastian when visiting the Louvre.
We should do a favorite sculpture poll!! I might get some FREE PUB.
