Stephanie- Thanks for sharing these. Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of those places that just never gets old for me, no matter how many times I've been there. Even for pieces I've seen dozens of times---I suppose this is no different than rereading an old classic book, or rewatching your favorite movie. The repetition deepens the appreciation and longing. But the best part is when I discover new details I may have missed on a familiar piece. That, to me, is worth the multiple visits and side-eyes from those around you who go, "Again!?" Your writing is a wonderful reminder of this pursuit of perseverance in the search. :)

Thank you Thalia!
I was just at the Met again this weekend - stumbled upon rooms I had never been in before! Always a marvel!
