To love a painting is to feel that this presence is… not an object but a voice.
~ Andre Malraux ~
The Bedroom
By
Pieter De Hooch
Inevitably, it is impossible to look at Dutch masters and not comment on their ability to capture light, and ever so subtly guide us into their vision; in this work the window leads to the child, whose face I adore, through the first door, into the next room, out the second door, until we are outside.
Art can never exist without naked beauty displaced.
~ William Blake ~
