Pix today from my first full day in NYC in January. I walked downtown from Margi & Michael's apt. on 116th St. to the Met Museum @ 83rd so the first shots are of the park. Then on my way to the clearance sale room took some pix of some Egyptian (?) statues & after scooping up some goodies, walked through the
Temple of Dendur (a place I don't usually visit) to the lovely rooms in the American Painting & Sculpture rooms where I snapped a picture of
Augustus Saint-Gaudens (whom I'm sure would have been my boyfriend had I lived @ the time) painted by
Kenyon Cox and a wonderful painting by
Edwin Austin Abbey (another of whose works,
Pavane, graces the rooms of the
American Renaissance @ the
MFA. And, turns out, whose kewlest work,
The Quest for the Holy Grail is at the Boston Public Library, free for all to see).
Beautiful day here - mid-60s for a high. Toddling later to the local Flat Black to pick up the trifecta - organic, fair-trade, shade-grown coffee beans.
