And to end this post, my favourite quote from Rembrandt (Wikiquote):
"Try to put well in practice what you already know; and in so doing, you will in good time, discover the hidden things which you now inquire about. Practice what you know, and it will help to make clear what now you do not know."

Oh, how wonderful to discover your blog! I am a writer primarily, so my blog will not be of particular interest I think. I have also started to paint, have always appreciated artisans as well as "fine artists." Rembrandt's house feels enchanted to me. Your blog will be a source of delight to me. Merci. Je visiterais (?) votre blog avec plaisir. As you can see, my French is extremely rusty!
ReplyDeleteHi Sylvie. The house of Rembrandt looks fantastic. I will have to go there and check it out. Also, there is a photo of a white Greek looking bust (head and shoulders statue) on a book shelf. Is this Athena?
