So Thoughtful, What's on Their Minds?

Leonardo's figures are so pensive--it makes you wonder what they're thinking. Even the babies.

Leonardo's 'Virgin of the Rocks.' National Gallery London. It was a privilege to view it in person.

Here in the US, Mother's Day is coming up. Good to consider that closest of relationships. This is a very beautiful piece of sacred music that not only reinforces religious belief in some groups, but reminds of the invaluable maternal bond.
