I repost art to remind myself of hopeful things, instead of the current dystopia.

In a packed Chinese restaurant on Christmas night, wondering if there’s ever been a play parody called “Waiting for To-Go”?

Bottle https://www.artic.edu/artworks/67446/
Initially affordable only among the wealthy, glass was used in ancient Rome as containers for oils, perfume, and tablewares. The variety of glass-making techniques reveals the changing tastes and fashions over the centuries. During the 1st century A.D., cast glass was a novel form that was a luxury for the Roman household, but by the end of the century, the innovation of blown glass allowed for less labor-intensive and less expensive production, which meant people of lesser means could afford it. Blown glass became so popular it nearly supplanted ceramic and even bronze wares in the home. Gift of Theodore W. and Frances S. Robinson

Sunlight https://www.artic.edu/artworks/71562/
Like many of his American contemporaries, Richard E. Miller studied at the Académie Julian in Paris and spent time at Giverny, the site of Claude Monet’s country home. Sunlight is one of a group of paintings depicting scenes of women outdoors or in sunlit interiors. The light filling the room is diffused evenly over the models, objects, and windows, creating a variety of decorative patterns. In his interest in painting as nonnarrative and his technical experiments with thickly applied color over thin layers of pigment, Miller is not dissimilar to one of his many influences, Édouard Vuillard.

Why are there Cat Cafes, but no Puppy Pubs?

Different moods have different solutions.
