Another day at the museum

Yesterday was Columbus Day here in the U.S., and that meant that the kids still had school but my husband was off work. So, we headed up to the National Gallery of Art in D.C., my favorite space in the D.C. area (though the Lincoln and Jefferson memorials are a close second). It was only my third visit and I still haven't seen near all the masterpieces there. Here are a few snapshots from our day:

Above and below, Pieta by Giovanni Della Robbia:

The Artist's Garden at Argenteuil by Claude Monet:

And Olive Picking II, by my favorite artist, Vincent Van Gogh:
