Sculpture Garden

While we were in Florida, Marcus and his friends spent a couple of days sight-seeing in DC and then continued their road trip up to New York City. They're back to spend a few more days in DC before going back to Florida.

Marcus and I did some walking around while his friends were checking out museums. I hadn't walked through the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden yet. It was a beautiful day and there were a ton of people out.


I love the illusionistic qualities of this. It's House I by Roy Lichtenstein. While the side of the house looks like it projects out toward you, it actually recedes.

When I see this, I wonder how many people younger than, oh, say 35, even know what it is.
