I wish every class could be spent in an 18th century sitting room overlooking a garden while rain falls lightly outside. Though it does make it a little difficult to stay awake.
After lectures and lunch we were off to the National Gallery. Eugene (our art history and photo prof) gave us 10 pieces of art that we had to find and write about. Locating 10 pieces out of the literally hundreds of thousands on display was not an easy task. Not to mention the fact that is is incredibly easy to get distracted from the task at hand when one is surrounded by Rembrandts and Caravaggios and Titians and almost anything else you can think of. Completely overwhelming, but in the best possible way.
