| Scottish National Gallery, quite an impressive place to visit. |
 |
| The exhibition begins with a Botticelli, good choice. |
 |
| An early Vermeer. His "Girl with Pearl Earring" was last year's sensation here. |
 |
| The first real El Greco I have seen in person. I can hardly believe he lived in the 16th century. His work is ahead of the time. |
 |
| I had seen the reproduction of this painting many times, but nothing prepared me for how alive and vivid the original is. |
 |
| Frans Hals, the Dutch master. |
 |
| Ah, the fatal moment we all know from Dante's Inferno! |
 |
| Painted by the teenaged Valazquez, really a precocious genius. |
 |
| I recognized this painting as the cover of a Mendelssohn's CD I owned. |
 |
| I was surprised to see a Matisse here. |
 |
| Mrs Dalloway Mrs Dalloway |
 |
| Gauguin in Tahiti |
 |
| Picasso in Blue |
 |
| A Kirchner |
 |
| Seuret, forever the colorist, this painting showed how his ideas had influenced Van Gogh. |
 |
| A Frederic Church Niagara Fall. Whenever I saw super sized color landscape photos, I thought about the Hudson School. |
