Uffizi, 2022

April 28th we did the Uffizi, again. Art and art history have grown on us over the years, and the Uffizi has gone from obligatory tourist destination to highest-priority pilgrimage site. Holy ground. I have examined the posts listed below and commend them at least as light-hearted coverage of one of the greatest of art museums:

As always, there are a few more items to post, some of which, I swear, we have not see before...

And in English too

"I said, bring us a shrubbery!"

In one of the Botticelli rooms

One of the many challenges of art photography...you get it framed,
focused, etc...and then...

In the cartography room, something we'd not seen before

Street scene

Imperial eye-roll

Wing-fitting gown on a Durer angel

Not happy with the scorpion on her forehead

Space available; your Renaissance paintings here

"You tell Him I said 'Mother of God' is fine, but I
want Queen of Heaven too!"

Weirdest St. John the Baptist yet; "gollum!
gollum!"

Never miss an Elizabeth Louise Vigee Le Brun; 
she weathered the Revolution in the sunny south;
and other places; anywhere but France

Light-hearted Breughel-spawn Calvary, a copy
of Elder's famous Procession to Calvary, which
we'll see again, hopefully, this fall in Vienna 

"Thus always to body-shamers"
