Looking At Art


 So often, people wander through a museum, stopping for a few seconds in front of whatever art might catch their eye, but then moving on. This father and daughter spent several minutes in front of a painting that had piqued the girl's interest. They studied the Venetian woman portrayed by John Singer Sargent and discussed it in detail. The father was enjoying their time together and the child was learning how to really look at art. She will grow up to be a museum-goer. It was lovely to see.
