What a beautiful day! We went to the National Gallery of Arts for the exhibit of Irving Penn. I fell in love with a black and white photo of his wife, a French model and sculptor, Lisa Fonssagrives-Penn.
We also saw the originals of small French paintings by Monet, Manet, Renoir. My favorites, however, were those by Jean Baptiste Camille Corot "Gypsy Girl with Mandolin". I also discovered that he has a painting titled A Road in the Countryside Near Lake Leman So this explains why everybody keeps asking me if I am French. Maybe I AM French after all.
