Once dear hubby is retired next year, we plan on taking an occasional holiday away to visit museums, one of my absolute favourite things to do.

Get me into a museum and I'm just like a mouse in a house, once I'm in, you can't get me out. LOL!

Hubby is retiring at just the right time Aunt Marg, hopefully 2022 will bring back air travel. The beauty of this painting blows me away.

I agree, Mellow, travel in general.

I love all things related to art that were done by true Italian artists and craftspeople.

The carvings, the paintings, the overall beauty of all that they do is just so beautiful.

Can't wait to be able to go to museums again! Beauty, quiet, and time to take things in...
