All stunning. A few I have seen live. Also paintings that launch other things like A Dance to the Music of Time (Nicolas Pousin) which was the impetus for Anthony Powell's 12 volume novel.
Thank you for sharing these works! I know nothing about art either, and I never feel like I have something to say. But then I remind myself that the artist painted them because s/he uses images instead of words. I think it’s great to just let them stand on their own because they affected you.
I love art, especially paintings and drawings. I've volunteered in museums throughout my life, and visit museums whenever I travel. I never learn much about art by reading, I just view it and discover preferences.
Great to see Blake here!

I like your choices.
