Sorry I didn't respond ...Dear California Girl,<br /><br />Sorry I didn't respond to your comment until now. I'm trying to catch up after my summer holiday.<br /><br />Thank you so much for telling me about this documentary. I just placed it at the top of my Netflix queue. I look forward to learning about this collection. Out the gate, I believe in honoring the intent of the will.Dutchbabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844296297519447526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272874592438082683.post-39603986733223226812010-08-17T13:34:05.720-07:002010-08-17T13:34:05.720-07:00Based on what you write about lending paintings, e...Based on what you write about lending paintings, etc., you will be interested in the documentary, "The Art of the Steal" about the Barnes Museum and its priceless collection of Post Impressionist art among other treasures. Dr. Barnes did not want his collection moved either. The Philadelphia Museum, according to the documentary, contrived to get it for decades and now they will. The POV of the story is decidedly against the museum, the politicians and the owners of the Philadelphia Inquirer who had quite the vendetta against Barnes. Hard to be on any of the sides. I guess I believe in honoring wills.California Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12582691517303132274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272874592438082683.post-79345865104856090472009-02-12T10:52:00.000-08:002009-02-12T10:52:00.000-08:00Dear Tara,That would be a nice existence wouldn't ...Dear Tara,<BR/>That would be a nice existence wouldn't it - traveling from museum to museum with all admiring eyes upon you.Dutchbabyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00844296297519447526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272874592438082683.post-32872302155306763222009-02-11T10:26:00.000-08:002009-02-11T10:26:00.000-08:00I am a fan of this painting, but didn't know it wa...I am a fan of this painting, but didn't know it was restricted to San Francisco. Of course if you have to be stuck somewhere, San Fran's not bad. But traveling around from museum to museum sounds like a lot more fun.paris parfaithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05457437124988976587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272874592438082683.post-6087657698730605332009-02-10T17:43:00.000-08:002009-02-10T17:43:00.000-08:00Dear Ruth,Haha, that's a funny observation!

Which wouldn't be possible in the early 1900s. :|<BR/><BR/>Lofty observation, eh?Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14204074161539605133noreply@blogger.com
