Post your favorite paintings
Hi folks, since the season is changing (from old man winter into Spring where I live), I thought it would nice to have a thread where we can post our most loved paintings. To start things off, i've posted two of my favorites which by the way are on display at the National Gallery in Canberra if you're visiting our fair shores
Cheers, Bodhi "The Coming of Spring" by Frederick McCubbin "Water Lillies" by Claude Monet. This painting was acquired by the NGA Canberra for $826,000AUD in 1979. It is now valued at $45 million! Last edited by Bodhisattva; 09-10-2012 at 06:46 AM. |
