Los angeles Getty Museum. Not the Villa :P

Posted this in my scrapbook on deviantart, where I put all the info and my thoughts. but since no one on deviantart appears to like art history...

seriously It's like "fanart or gtfo" over there, so I thought you guys might me more interested. Most of these, beside Rembrandt I think, are permanent exhibits, in case you wanna go down there and see them

Just another place where my feet hurt from standing around too much.

I am far more interested in the academic aspects than in seeing the actual canvas.

true, academics are important, which is why I like to take what I've learned and point discover them in the master's pieces as well :) and seeing the famous art you notice that it isn't that different than modern artists who either do oil paint (or even other medium), and some are realistic and others are emotional. It's like seeing how it's all the same, which is a pretty cool feeling.
