Sharing some delights from my trip to the Morgan Library & Museum, Renoir Exhibition:
The exhibit highlighted Renoir drawings/sketches. I was shocked by the large scale of the actual painting.

Visited the fabulous Morgan Library today in NY! Cannot recommend it enough. They have an astounding collection of books and art from all over the world acquired by Morgan and his librarian Belle Greene.

The incomparable Elisabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun, painter (and receiver of patronage) of Marie Antoinette, among many other wonderful works of art, as seen below.

Another pair of intense eyes, this Mademoiselle is stunning by the sea.

Sometimes, when you are walking through a gallery, you feel eyes on you. This handsome man’s gaze arrested me; I could not look away.

A fav of mine (that I’ve been lucky to see several versions of) is Degas’ Little Dancer. While the story behind the young model is very sad, her beauty and grace have been immortalized in bronze.

Day 2 of my new job as the Program Manager/Education Coordinator for TRIO-SSS at Super Secret University. 💕

Loving every minute of it! It’s so nice to be back in Academia after a year with the baby.

More stunning windows glass art by Tiffany artist, Agnes Northrop.

“Autumn Landscape” is apparently widely considered to be her masterpiece. And indeed, seeing it in person will take your breath away.

I often get tunnel vision in museums searching for my favs. Imagine my surprise then when I stumbled upon Tiffany glass!
Better, this was created by Tiffany artist Agnes Northrop.

My new love is the hippo, “William”.
The unofficial mascot of The Met, his gift shop facsimile will now have pride of place in my new office, in effect becoming the office deity.
Why is he called William? Read on to find out!

One of my great delights in ancient exhibits is all the “lil guys”. Although extremely significant in their time, depicting deities or offering protections, for us they’re more often adorable little dudes brightening our day.
Also, peep who discovered this hippo!

A delightful thing about art museums is discovering new favorites.
I have always loved the Impressionists & for me, Degas’ dancers are the best!
Below is my newest discovery in that palette: “Dancer with a Fan”.

Got to take my belated bday trip to the Metropolitan Museum of Art yesterday. It was a fantastic day filled with color, beauty, and awe.

Thank you @leonard-apa.bsky.social for a spectacular time! 💕

Beautiful day in NY with my bestie! Visited Burnett Fountain (appropriately very Secret Garden-esque) and Alice, had tea, and found books. The perfect day! 🤓

What are you reading, #booksky? After a bit of a dry spell, I’m really enjoying “The Agathas“, a fun, YA mystery and homage to the great Agatha Christie whom, as the dedication reminds us, was a badass bitch! #books #reading #mystery #agathachristie
