I am a mainly self-taught appreciator of art; I was taken to art museums all the time as a kid and I've had art history courses, but a lot of what I've learned has just been research or like...enthusiasm. So I had no idea that Monet (who I am it must be said not a huge fan of) had done two huge oval galleries in the Musee de l'Orangerie, intended as meditation spaces; they ask you be silent in them, but when you cram like 30 people into a room and some of them are married, silence isn't really silence. Still, it's some of the best work of his I've seen, and I did spend some significant time attempting to cram some serenity into my head.
[ID: Two images from the eight total murals of the Water Lily galleries at the Musee de l'Orangerie; the first shows a pond with water lilies and greenery on the shore, in his typical blurred, expressionist style; the other shows a tree growing either out of the water or at its edge, with delicate leaves and branches hanging down over the water that is dotted with lilies.]

“zendaya looking like the most gorgeous alien you ever seen in your life is something”
it is something but we need a sign from both of them; one feels incomplete without the other ☹️ (allow me to be sappy because i’m bored at work)
i'm a simple girl, whenever one of them move i'm already hyped for the day
HOWEVER if tom misses paris he's really welcome 🤭 i think they have plenty of museums to visit still

(André Derain, Roses sur fond noir, 1932, musée de l'Orangerie, Paris)
peindre les roses jusqu’à leur donner un regard, de soie et de feu, innocent et puissant, qui donnera à la fleur la vie du dernier instant, évoquant à jamais le mystère qu’elle cachait lorsqu’elle brisait la lumière, le matin tout entier ; vestige d’un dieu masqué, regard sans regard qui nous anéantira tout entier

Dovima in a chiffon print by Fath - a botanical lesson in the most delicate herbs. It also illustrates a nice new look for small summer dinners in town: enveloping softness, with the fresh surprise of white linen with a distant neckline. Sets: "Water Lilies" by Monet, at the Orangerie, Paris.
Dovima dans un mprimé en mousseline de soie de Fath - une leçon de botanique sur les herbes les plus délicates. Il illustre aussi un joli nouveau look pour les petits dîners d'été en ville : douceur enveloppante, avec la surprise fraîche du lin blanc au décolleté lointain. Décors : "Nymphéas" de Monet, à l'Orangerie, Paris.

"Paris was delightful. Usually is," Michaelis agreed. "A nice change of scenery."
"Eiffel Tower still standing?" Jerry asked.
"I didn't inspect it personally, but it seems fine," Michaelis replied.
Believe it or not, I've been so intent on getting wherever I'm going that this morning I looked up and saw the Eiffel Tower for the first time. It certainly does seem fine!
[ID: A photograph of the Eiffel Tower as seen from the Jardin des Tuileries outside the Musee de l'Orangerie. In this view it is a distant latticed steel tower that rises up behind two decorative columns in the foreground and a large statue of a woman wearing a crown.]

Marie Laurencin (1883-1956)
French painter, illustrator, and stage designer, born in Paris. Apart from evening classes in drawing, she was self-taught as an artist. In 1907 she was introduced by the picture dealer Clovis Sagot to *Apollinaire, *Picasso and their circle (she painted a group portrait of several of her famous friends in 1908: The Guests, Baltimore Museum of Art). For several years she lived with Apollinaire, and she exhibited with the Cubists. Her work, however, was entirely peripheral to the Cubist movement. She specialized in portraits of oval-faced, almond-eyed young girls painted in pastel colours, and although she borrowed a few tricks of stylization from her Cubist friends, her style remained essentially unaffected by them.
