Picasso's Fernande with a Black Mantilla.
When the Guggenheim opened in Vegas I went, out of curiosity really - it was the first time I'd been to an art museum as an adult - the last time had been over 30 years before. I saw this painting & it blew my mind. I just sat looking at it for about 30 minutes, trying to see it all.
Second place - Titian's Suicide of Lucretia.
Another visit to the Guggenheim. I love the lighting in this picture - as a photographer, it's something that gets my attention. A sad story too - great picture.
Third place - Bonnards Train & Barges.
Yes another Vegas trip & another Guggenheim visit. I grew up on a farm, in a small village in England. Although this was painted in France, it really catpures the essence. Very Evoctative.
Sorry, would have incldued Van Gogh's Starry NIght - but that guy really was crazy !

Sonata. You can check out my blog to sneak a peek. It is just a sexy painting to me.
EDIT: I forgot to put why--I would love to be serenaded by my lover and look sexy while doing it.
