I broke my boycott of block buster and especially impressionist/postimpressionist ones today because we ate lunch nearby and my two friends and wonderful wife wanted to go. Ironically i was the only one who did because they were so daunted by the hour+ long wait they bailed out.
I loved three of his works - the Pont de Bordeaux for its complexity, the Pointe du raz for its impressionism and the Coin de ferms for its simplicity - none were Boudinesque; Boudin's paintings of beaches striking me like Pisarro's of Montmartre streets, Caneletto's of canald and Sisley's of farms
- too much of a good thing. The three are worth the price of admission but not the wait.
