500 years of women in art
(a bit weird but very instructive)
Caravaggio (a favorite rogue)
No Monet though. I had only one face-to-face encounter with Monet, at the Chicago Art Institute in February this year. A friend and I had gone for hours through the entire place, seeing Botticelli's, Renoirs, El Greco's and all sorts of wonderful things. Towards the very end we came to the Monet room. I turned to Frank and pleaded, "Please, I can't take a room full of Monets. All those purple haystacks...and (shudder)
We had to go through the Monet room to get to the exit. We went through with eyes cast down as quickly as possible.
