Turret

Turret rue de l'Ecole de Medicine 22 Paris, 1861
Charles Meryon
Etching on laid paper
Smart Museum of Art, Univ. of Chicago

There is an unending pot of art that I can choose from daily, yet it is amazing how difficult it sometimes is to just pick something. Even sitting at work, surrounded by art books, I sometimes struggle. Many of my entries are well thought out, time spent reading and exploring whatever artist or work I've chosen. Other entries are quick choices (and I am sure you can figure out which ones), something catches my eye, I post it and comment briefly. It is a little inconsistent but then again, so am I :). Here is the quick (and late) entry for today.

Yay for etching!
