Venite, cantiam

So I'm taking a humanities class this semester, and yesterday we looked at some works by Rembrandt that really struck me, I don't know why. Anyway, I thought I'd post them here for your viewing pleasure.

Portrait of Agatha Bas


Portrait of an 83-year-old woman


We also looked at some sculptures by Bernini and paintings by Caravaggio and it took me back to Rome...sigh. Seeing pictures of art just isn't the same as seeing the real thing.
