I find these paintings just breathtaking…spending time looking at them, soaking them in, noticing the colors and brushstrokes, then taking that beauty you see in them and looking at the world every day with eyes a little brighter because of having seen them.
Enjoy, friends.

Mucha is from Prague; he did many stained glass windows in an old church there that was so beautiful it made me cry. The entire interior was painted in Art Nouveau – every square inch.
Saw Klimt’s work in Vienna.
Glad to see you’re on Etsy! I’ve shopped there for a long time.
I posted another comment after one of your Rome Days.
