In the National Gallery of Victoria, taking time to enjoy the art as this man is enjoying seeing "The Crossing of the Red Sea" (1632-4) by Nicolas Poussin (1594-1665).

I am not a huge Poussin fan, but I love the idea of being able to sit undisturbed to examine a work of art. Getting up close brings the details into focus, but the overview of a complex work can be another thing altogether.
ReplyDeleteI love the one with the guy sitting and taking it all in
