I saw this painting in the paper the other day, and it brought back memories of my art history class from 10 years ago! It's interesting to think that it was a decade ago because I still feel like I remember a lot. My instructor was engaging to listen to and had a surplus of knowledge about the painters, paintings and stories behind them.
I enjoy looking through art books depicting especially Impressionism. I think that's my favorite art period, or one that stuck with me, and feel drawn to the most.
This painting from the paper says, 'Chocolate Bar, A riff on Édouard Manet's painting 'A bar at the Folies-Bergere.'
It's so warm to find a painting that puts you back into a certain space of time. Certain Van Gogh's paintings have done that for me. Art is a treasure that can bring back a wellspring of memories xoxox susie
