El Greco at the Legion - detail of sky


El Greco at the Legion

El Greco is one of my favorite painters... View of Toledo used to capture my attention for hours when I was little..

So we're in the museum in San Francisco - legion of honor? lots of Rodins in there, too, some link to the French people - taking pictures of everything while the organ plays show tunes and Sinatra in another room.

Fantastic series of prints by Max Klinger - a whole series on Death, so it was right up my alley... more pix soon..
