Italy–elephants. Some think of Hannibal; others of productions of Aida at the Roman Coliseum; others of Berlusconi staying endlessly in office. And then, there are those minds that conjure up the Madonna and Child.
I am embarrassed to say that, in my ManicDDaily way, I did not jot down the name of this artist, and cannot find the image among the hundreds of Madonna and Childs in the online catalogue of the Metropolitan Museum. All I can say is that it’s located in one of the galleries with a skylight.
I guess I’ll just have to go back.
Have a wonderful weekend, and if you like fine art (as in wonderful drawings), don’t forget to check out “Going on Somewhere” with illustrations by Diana Barco, cover by Jason Martin, poetry by Karin Gustafson, on Amazon. (Buy one!) And if you like elephants, check out 1 Mississippi by Karin Gustafson, also on Amazon. (Buy another!) (P.S. If price is an issue, let me know–I know someone who can get them for you wholesale.)
