European Vacation 2001: Just minor works.
Aug. 9 2001
13:20 Going the the Hermitage. Tamarra. Helen. Vladimir. No flash photography. Hermitage — a place of solitude. Catherine II. 1764.
16:25 Done with the Hermitage. Saw French Impressionists? Winter Palace. Bye St. Petersburg.
The Hermitage was cool. My brother said it was filled with minor works. I think it had some good stuff. I remember Rembrandt’s Prodigal Son, which we had seen in our 10th grade art appreciation class.
