Another lovely painting

This lovely picture is called "Girl with a Dove" and it was painted by Picasso. Fortunately he didn't feel that it would look better if the girl's eyes were jammed right together over near her ear, or that she would look nice in bright reds and yellows, separated by strong black lines! This must be one of the few paintings he did that has not only a reasonably realistic image, but also a soft, delicate and fragile quality. Here is some more music of Debussy to complement the little girl.

unwind a little...

“We ought to view ourselves with the same curiosity and openness with which we study a tree, the sky or a thought, because we too are linked to the entire universe.”

―Henri Matisse
 The painting is by Monet, and is named "Cliff Walk at Pourville 1882".
Monet and Matisse were French artists of the 19th/20th century.

 The music is part of a suite named "Bergamasque", written by the French composer Debussy. You can see how the words of Matisse, the painting of Monet and the music of Debussy all combine to bring about a feeling of calm and relaxation.
