VIERNES, EL VEINTITRES DE JULIO, VEINTE-DIEZ
Yesterday I went to the Palace of the Legion of Honor and got to revisit (again) some paintings that have been very influential on my practice. Probably the most enigmatic for me is a small oil painting on brass by Gerard ter Broch titled Portrait of A Gentleman in Black, c.1639. I painted an ex-voto of the painting in 2008, when I was last in San Francisco (scroll down to the 18th of June). I think it impressed me as it reminded me of the Dou copper painting of the Physician in the Christchurch Art Gallery.
