Finally, the excuse I need to become the crazy reclusive academic with an inconceivable number of cats, tucked away in some small Tuscan town (San Gimignano!! *smiles*), never to be seen again...
Side note: Perhaps the absurd enormity of Platt Fields Park here in Manchester isn't so absurd after all.
Henri Rousseau The Dream 1910
PS. Is it just me or is poor Henri far too underrated? Gorgeousness.
i love rosseau's work in musee d'orsay in paris. there is this one painting that continues to haunt me, i have the post card of it somewhere but of course can't remember the name. yes, underrated!
