Chicago Museum of Art

I don't know a lot about art. I did have an Art Appreciation in college. The main thing I remember about that class is that it was incredibly easy. That was my second easiest class in college. My easiest class was Music Appreciation. What I mostly learned to appreciate from those classes is being able to sit in class and look at slides of paintings and listen to music and get an A for it. Every other class in college I remember being incredibly hard, but those two were great.

Anyway, I think some of it must have rubbed off because, while I'm still not really into art, I like seeing famous paintings. The Chicago Museum of Art has a bunch of them. Its a huge building and I spent several hours just walking around, doing my best to appear cultured. It also kept me off of the scary and freezing cold streets of Chicago. So, I included some of them. Most of them are well-known enough that they've been parodied a lot. Maybe in another blog I'll put some of those up against the originals.
