Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art


I also went to the Wadsworth Museum this weekend. Like Sean I found it to be much bigger than I expected. It was very quaint but there were many more paintings than I expected and I felt overwhelmed like at the Met in NYC. I found many paintings that I liked by Monet, Dali and Georgia O'Keeffe. I particularly like the one by Edward Hopper and it is Captain Strouts house, Portland head.

I enjoyed Edward Hopper's piece at the Yale Art Gallery. I did not make it to the Wadsworth, maybe someday soon!

I like Edward Hopper's work a lot. He has such a delicate sense of realism that never fails to bring me into the piece. His color choices evoke such emotion.
