At dinner yesterday I was asked whose work I would choose if I could have any painting to hang in my home. A difficult question, I wanted several. Having established that I wouldn't be allowed a Basquiat, a Pollock, a Hopper, a Turner .......
..... the conversation reminded me how much I would love to possess a painting by the impressionist artist Berthe Morisot. (Don't get excited - this is NOT going to happen!) Contemporary to the great names of the movement and wife to Edward Manet, there is a lightness of touch to her paintings and a certain femininity that speaks to me.
And how about you? Which artist's work do you dream of possessing?
