Is that you, playing the lute?

Frumpy women of the day I get, but did the men really have all that glorious hair?? And curled and combed! Got to be wigs.

OW'er is forced to choose between "real life" and the latest logbook of their favorite ship.

[Randi]

I'm not sure I would call that a choice

[Morgan]

The word "Bewildered" seems to cover it!

[Randi]

Neat!
I assume you will give us a detailed report?

I love the video on the exhibit page about the tapestry conservation! That sort of conservation always feels a little magical to me. Especially since they're working in tiny bits at a time and don't get to see the thing as a whole until the end. Very cool.

[Morgan]

WOW. My hand work is so poor. That must be quite a task! I won't get there to see the exhibits, but thanks for bringing it up.

Farewell Chris.

We have a new editor, Ron, who you might have met in the Introduce yourself topic. And yes, Ron is a painter and this is one of his pictures.

That dreamy haze in Monet’s impressionist paintings? Air pollution, study says.
