Chau Say Tevoda this morning. There is a good exhibition at the site on Chinese-Cambodian collaboration in recent years on restoring this once thoroughly ruined temple and others including Ta Keo. #ChauSayTevoda #Angkor #SiemReap #Cambodia #Indochina #SoutheastAsia #Asia #history

#Angkor Wat this morning. The heavy #rains that have caused extensive #flooding in northwestern #Cambodia in recent days have left a good deal of #water within the structures despite earlier efforts to prevent leaking. #AngkorWat #SiemReap #Indochina #SoutheastAsia #Asia #history

Juan de #Zurbarán, Plate of Grapes, 1639. Oil on #copper. In @NationalGallery’s current #exhibition Zurbarán. I find this work interesting in part because of the unusual support. I am reminded of living #artists who use linen as well as canvas and of Whistler’s paintings on wood. – at London, England

James McNeill Whistler, Chelsea in Ice, 1864. Oil paint on canvas. In @Tate’s exhibition James McNeill Whistler. As the exhibition’s label for this painting suggests, it anticipates Claude Monet’s treatment of London scenes. #JamesMcNeillWhistler #ClaudeMonet #art #painter #light – at London, England
