Visiting Glasgow today and in love with the cathedral already 😍😍

If you’ve got an old soul, you’ll be enamored by the delightfully old-fashioned work of Moscow-based artist Elena Limkina. Every week, she offers the world a glimpse into her personal sketchbook, and its pages tell vivid stories of nature, architecture, and classical paintings.

The cathedral in Auxerre, France

Dorothea Lange, Tractored Out, Childress County, Texas, 1938

Apollo and Daphne (Bernini)

Although damaged from use and age, this shield is one of the most beautifully painted examples of the fifteenth century. On the preserved surface shows a woman wearing a feathered turban and holding a scroll inscribed in German “fahr mit Freuden” (go with joy). A heraldic shield to the right formerly displayed an owner’s coat of arms, which is now illegible. The surrounding areas are delicately painted with foliate scrolls and “cloud bands” in opaque colors and translucent glazes on a polished silver-leaf ground.

“Adrift”
