To love a painting is to feel that this presence is… not an object but a voice.

Snow Storm, Maine Coast
by
Antonio Mattei
Okay, just the right amount of snow for my taste! Where is the man running off to? Is the small boat bringing the mail or supplies; perhaps just company?
There is a whimsy to this painting, which I find endearing; I also love the contrast of the green-blue sea to the black skies and snow covered landscape.
Art can never exist without naked beauty displaced.
~ William Blake ~
