A Music Party
Arthur Hughes, 1864
This painting makes me laugh today.
What music can be playing that is putting them all into a stupor?
I just heard a most glorious concert of
Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto
which was thrilling in its vigor and virtuosity.
The boy in the back of A Music Party reminds me of my son
during certain poetry readings…giving in to a languid, ‘this will eventually be over’ state.
Happy Friday, all.

Now I was going to count the kitchen drawer pictures as your *Fine Art* entry….ya know – design, perspective, and color. It was all there 🙂
This one is lovely though. I have several I keeping meaning to share with you in mind…..of reading/readers/books.
Back to work….still a few more hours in the workday here. Then a walk. Then a movie w/DH.

Another beautiful redhead! Is that a musical instrument next to the dark haired boy to the right? The children are either mesmerized by the music or getting sleepy because it’s a lullaby.
