Art

I have a little widget on my Google Homepage called "Art of the Day." Today's entry really caught my attention:
From the link:
Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn 1606 – 1669
Jesus' Disappearance From Emmaus
drawing with pen and brush (20 × 18 cm) — ca. 1648-49
Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge (UK)
The description said it was one of only a few works that show Jesus' disappearance. That intrigued me enough to follow this link, where I found the Biblical reference (Luke 24:31) at a website that melds Biblical Art with the text of Scripture. Have you seen it before?
I was delighted to see my favorite artist, Albrecht Dürer, featured on the Home Page.
I'll be spending some time tomorrow exploring this website. Right now, the "girls" are waiting; I'm off to walk the dogs.

We have a large book of Rembrandt's work that includes many many of his sketches, this being one of them. I find them fascinating.
Because my computer loads so slowly, I often read blogs thru Bloglines and Google Reader, and I hadn't seen your new header until now. I like it--that's your sofa and living room! I can't imagine how you did that..I'm just that tech-ignorant. Impressive, Kim!
And how 'bout those Colorado Rockies!!!
That is one of the most interesting sites I've seen in a long time.
I love the new header, too.
