Holiday slides - New York

So much to see in a five day trip to New York.

But first stop every time - The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

 Chrysanthemums in the Garden at Petit-Grennevilliers 1893 -

Gustave Caillebotte 

a possible design for his dining room doors.

Want.

 Still Life with Flowers and Prickly Pears -

Auguste Renoir.

Bouquet of Chrysanthemums - 

Auguste Renoir.

A woman seated beside a Vase of Flowers - 

Edgar Degas.

She gazes, as the caption says, distractedly to the right.

I amuse myself by trying to guess what she is thinking about.

"Y aura-t-il assez de pommes de terres si Edgar vient dîner ce soir?"

"Cela prendra-t-il beaucoup de temps?"

"Je vais éternuer." *

And finally October in the Marshes -

John Frederick Kensett.

He was painting right up to his death in December 1872

and this series known as "Last Summer's Work"

is of meadows and salt marshes near Contentment Island Connecticut.

*"Will there be enough potatoes if Edgar comes to dine tonight?"

"Will this take much longer?"

"I'm going to sneeze."

My thanks, if it's correct, to Google translate for

helping out my schoolgirl French.
