Mythological God in Alexander's Favorite Room

Cezanne's Young Italian Woman at a Table is to the left, while Joseph Nollekens' marble Venus -- goddess of love & beauty -- is to the right. The female onlooker has a comedic look to her.

The crowds of patrons often assumed poses more artistic in license than those in the sculptures and paintings they admired. Sometimes, I went to the museum more for people-watching than for the art. Whereas the exhibit remained static, the passersby offered dynamic entertainment.

Series Description: A fancy art museum near Santa Monica -- 1200 Getty Center Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90049. For more than a year, I maintained a steadfast regimen, going every Thursday evening. Regularly viewing the works of old masters proved educational... almost like an art school.
