Thanks so much, James.

I love seeing the painting in person. Nothing quite like the real thing. While I was visiting the Met to see the paintings of the Hudson River School, I also saw the exhibit featuring Michelangelo's The Torment of St. Anthony. That small painting, believed to be his first, is stunning in its power. Quite scary subject matter.

One of my favorite paintings. Thanks for the post....
