Some Favorite Paintings.

Best Blogger Tips
Just wanted to share 4 of my favorite paintings with you...


1. Claude Monet - Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies (Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC)
2. Gustav Klimt - The Kiss (Vienna, Austria)
3. Edouard Manet - Le Dejeuner sur L'Herbe (Musee D'Orsay, Paris)
4. Vincent Van Gogh - Van Gogh's Chair (National Gallery, London)


I have been fortunate enough to have visited 3 out of the 4 paintings... still waiting to see The Kiss in person!


What are some of your favorite paintings?


KIU,

    I'm a huge Pre-Raphaelite fan - I think The Lady of Shallot by Waterhouse is my favorite painting, but I also really love the kiss.

    I think Edmund Blair Leighton's "The Accolade" is my all-time favorite painting.
