Lately, the weather feels like stepping into Van Gogh’s "Rain." Diagonal streaks slice the sky in his homage to Japanese prints. His window overlooked a wheat field. Ours might show traffic or trees, but the feeling remains the same: stormy, beautiful, and quietly intense.

A rare visit from a Philly legend. This Eakins painting is on loan from Crystal Bridges through May 19. Catch it next to "The Gross Clinic" while you still can. 🖼️ "Portrait of Professor Benjamin H. Rand," 1874, Thomas Eakins. Courtesy Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.

Some people meditate. Some people run. Some people stare at a Pollock for 20 minutes and feel their soul shift. We support all three.

Happy birthday to Piet Mondrian, who was born on this day in 1872. Working with only the most basic elements—straight lines and primary colors—Mondrian strove to create pure objective art that he believed would change the world.

Born February 19, 1876, Constantin Brancusi reshaped sculpture with his bold simplicity. A pioneer of Modernism, his work continues to redefine form and feeling. Happy Birthday Brancusi! "Brancusi in Studio," 1922, Constantin Brancusi, Portrait of Constantin Brancusi

If Monet were here, he’d probably be posting this too. ☁️🎨 We’re excited to be here—stick around and tell us what you’d love to see! 🖼️ "Path on the Island of Saint Martin, Vétheuil," 1881, Claude Monet 🔎 See it in Gallery 252, European Art 1850-1900, second floor
