Too difficult for me to appreciate.īelow: I mean, what is this supposed to be? I used it to showcase the green Lara Design earrings.īelow: Another iron statue was a dog with a ball. Stairway to heaven?īelow: After seeing the exhibition we had lunch in the adjacent garden at the back.īelow: Walking back from the restaurant we spotted art in the garden.

I also posted the story that was next to the portraits.īelow: Here is Ineke again (in case you missed this photo last week).īelow: On the wall near the stairs. She died in 1977 and it has never been clear whether it was suicide or murder.īelow: Photos of David Bailey and Jean Shrimpton. Always wore very expensive gowns created by designer Fong Leng, as seen in this painting. She was famous in the seventies (well, she was in the Netherlands), very much a society figure. I photographed a few items, like this painting of Mathilde Willink, painted by her husband. Very tranquil.īelow: I think you should see the exhibition for yourself. Deliveries would go through the door underneath, which is also the entrance for the museum public.īelow: When you enter the courtyard of the Hermitage, this is your view on the right.īelow: And this is your view on the left. The gentry would go up the stairs through the main front door. Links to the original posts: jumper, trousers and boots, bag, earrings.īelow: Arriving at the Hermitage. They so spoil a picturesque photo.īelow: View on the other side of the bridge.īelow: We walked towards the museum over this drawbridge.īelow: Would I pass up a background opportunity like that without using it? Don’t think so.Įverything I am wearing was already in my wardrobe, although the bag is very recent. I admit deleting some things from this photo, like scaffolding and high-voltage cables. We have been friends since 1981.īefore we went to the exhibition, Ineke took photos of me and my outfit for you guys to see.īelow: The Blauwbrug always makes a magnificent background.īelow: Blauwbrug pillar. Ineke who lives in Amsterdam and majored in art history, accompanied me. Which is why they now exhibit more than 100 portraits (paintings, photos and sculptures) with the theme Love Stories, on loan from the National Portrait Gallery in London. Only that Russia and Russian things are not very popular these days, to use an understatement. They are linked to the Hermitage in Saint Petersburg and most of their exhibitions are items on loan from them. I arranged to go to an exhibition at the Hermitage, a beautiful building in Amsterdam. The green/purple/yellow scarf around my waist is a trick I use often (thank you Misja for this tip). Couldn’t resist to throw in the bright green earrings though. It appeals to me because of its sophisticated vibe. Sometimes I devise an outfit to purposely avoid bright colours, such as the styling of this monochrome cream outfit.
