art history

Art History. How I love/hate thee.


1. I think I've got a crush on a man who is 632 years old. Is that weird?
Brunelleschi is the name. Italian Renaissance architect. He's the one who figured out the DOME. Smart, talented man, especially in his thirties. I absolutely adore him...my friend has a crush on Hamlet. HE'S NOT EVEN REAL!

2. I was reading my textbook in the food court
today. My page was open to a self-portrait of Albrecht Durer c.1500 (another very awesome guy). Some random dude walked by my table and kind of idled there. I looked up and he put his portfolio case on the floor, then rolled up the sleeve of his shirt to expose his forearm to show me his tattoo of Durer at age thirteen. Pretty cool, even if I do say so myself.
