And now the paintings in no particular order. I got the descriptions for many, but not all. I don’t have the artist or other info for any of the girls’ photos.

This is one that the girls gushed on and on about. They were surprised at how graphic and detailed this work was! (Going out on a limb here, but I’m gonna guess this was an arterial wound…)

The one below captured my eye for the FRAME!! It’s… original!

One that’s super well known and perhaps recognizable to some of you??

Unfinished work by Michelangelo

This one reminded me of a Fantasy genre movie:

Rembrandt:

Birth of Venus by Botticelli- probably the most recognizable work in there, at least to me.

To say the least, I REALLY enjoyed my stroll through this world-renowned Gallery. What a treasure to the world! The talent displayed within its walls is unparalleled to be sure and I could have spent weeks wandering its halls admiring the works. Perhaps someday, my travels will take me back again… for now I’m left with the memories of a lifetime.
