Back To The Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art

February 9, 2010

Ahhh, Sunday. What a fine day for a return visit to the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art up in Hartford, CT. Again, this little trip was “suggested,” but I’m not complaining. Me complain? I don’t think so.

I don’t want to make a long post out of this. All I really want to show you is a really neat painting that I haven’t see before. It’s called:

Interior of a Picture Gallery with the Collection of Cardinal Silvio Valenti Gonzaga
Artist: Giovanni Paolo Panini
(Italian, 1691-1765)
1740

Interior of a Picture Gallery with the Collection of Cardinal Silvio Valenti Gonzaga

It was a really great painting to look at. I have always said that I enjoy really detailed art as opposed to paintings that look like someone just splattered different colors of paint at a canvas. I don’t know art, so I am not going to attempt a name for that type. All I know is that I like stuff that takes time to do.

You really should see this painting up close. It’s interesting how someone is so capable at doing something so complex. I wouldn’t be able to copy one small item in this painting, even if I traced it. How is that? How are people’s brains to different from one another? Who knows.

Anyway, enjoy the painting and you really should take a trip to this museum. It’s a great place and they do a nice job with their collections.
