We saw a nice Toulouse-Lautrec (do the French say "a de Toulouse-Lautrec?) and talked about why he often chose to avoid drawing feet. #VMFA info for this: " The small-statured figure to the left is probably the artist himself, while the figures to his right are possibly the Cabaret dancer Valentin le Désossé (literally, "the boneless one") and Toulouse-Lautrec's cousin Gabriel Tapié de Celetran." Only one leg in the painting for guy on right, who knows in real life. #toulouselautrec

I think I will do a thread of random pics from the #VMFA #virginia #museum of #fine #art ... Just follow #VMFA tag... It was 75 degrees and sunny so we mostly frolicked in the sculpture garden and enjoyed the #peoplewatching. The water features were off, because it was winter, but the flowers were definitely in full bloom. #rva #VMFA /1

Girl with a Guitar by Robert Gwathmey. Currently on exhibit at VMFA, Storied Strings: The Guitar in American Art.
The window is a major compositional element so I'm posting it in #windowFriday. Fair?
