Art

This morning, we walked to the Fondation Vincent Van Gogh to view their current show which featured the work of Nicole Eisenman and other modern artists.  

One of the first things that struck me was how different artists can capture almost the same eyes in their very different paintings.

Herman Kruyder

Gustave van de Woestyne

Another thing that struck me was the influence that Van Gogh's art had on some of Nicole Eisenman art.

Although there were only 2 Van Gogh paintings in the show, this one was particularly lovely.
