the burning of the houses of lords and commons, 1835

This turner painting was by far the highlight of the museum for me
today. It's so beautiful in person, it glows from within. I'm in awe
of the talent, and also the age of these works. That people have
preserved these pieces over so much time, through the ages, it's
incredible to me.

Philly on a camera phone

walked over to the museum of art and all the way up the famous steps
rocky trained on in the movie. i love spending the day in a museum,
with no one to care if i spend as much time as i need on each piece.
