Three Men and a Little Lazy are pretty cute.
I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

Is Schama a royalist? Because that would make his hatred of David somewhat understandable, if frightfully dated. The guy did die almost 200 years ago, after all.
I'm just looking forward to next week's ep on Turner--he's probably my favorite painter.

Is Schama a royalist?
I'm not sure, he got very incensed when moving into David's period as painter to Napoleon, something about being just addicted to power, and Schama seems very offended by something about "The Death of Murat". I think Schama has a real detestation for anything resembling representationism in art, that art isn't legitimate unless smart people have to stare at it and debate its Meaning.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Yep, that's the one, Lee

Feh on him, then. Like I said upthread, I love Turner, but when it gets too fuzzy/nonrepresentational, I just tune out. Guernica is about as abstract as I can take.

My folks are into that show, evidently. I talked to them before it was on last night and my Mom was talking about how much she was looking forward to the show but that she hates David. I don't know why.
