Finally got to see "Europe After the Rain". This was my favorite painting when i was twenty or so, & when i went to Europe i looked for it in all the great museums i visited. I never suspected it was in Connecticut!

At the same show i discovered Florine Stettheimer. (I also saw a great portrait by Salvador Rosa, but that doesn't seem to be online anywhere.)

We ARE lost--what's scarce is clues.
