9. Henry Moore

I know absolutely nothing about art so I judge it only by what appeals to me. I adore the sculptures of Henry Moore. The huge scale and solid material, yet softening of the edges, is mesmerizing.

20. I am Half-Sick of Shadows, said the Lady of Shalott

J.W. Waterhouse
painting date: 1916


There she weaves by night and day
A magic web with colours gay.
She has heard a whisper say,
A curse is on her if she stay
To look down to Camelot.
She knows not what the curse may be,
And so she weaveth steadily,
And little other care hath she,
The Lady of Shalott.

38. Henry VIIII

Pastime With Good Company
Henry VIII

Pastime with good company
I love and shall until I die.
Grutch* who lust but none deny
So God be pleased thus live will I.
For my pastense hunt sing and dance
My heart is set,
All goodly sport, for my comfort
Who shall me let.

Youth must have some daliance
Of good or ill some pastance
Company me thinks then best
All thoughts and fancys to digest.
For idleness is chief mistress
To vices all
And who can say,but mirth and play
Is best of all.

Company with honesty
is virtue,vices to flee.
Company is good and ill,
But every man hath his free will.
The best ensue. The worst eschew.
My mind shall be:
virtue to use, vice to refuse.
Thus shall I use me.

*grutch is archaic for grudge.

39. Check out this image of Chuck Close

But, it's still hard to get it unless you see it in person.

A lot of people think he's a good photographer.

Until they realize that he's a PAINTER.
