ADRIE KINTZIGER stated May 20th: As an aside for Dr McWatt:
so nice to read that you're an art lover, Anthony. Whilst investigating Pirsig's journey on the river, I came across the Hudson river school painters; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hudson_River_School especially Cole's work made around the environment of the Cattskills is truly astonishing. Ant McWatt comments: Adrie, Many thanks for the Thomas Cole reference there. I hadn't heard of him, to be honest with you. However, though his subject matter tends to be a little bit traditional for me, Cole certainly has a mastery of light judging from the Internet images I found of his paintings (not unlike the English painter Joseph Turner). Now if I lived in a Victorian mansion near the Hudson river, one or two of Cole's paintings (or sketches) would definitely make for a rather nice - if not essential - complement for the house! Did you actually travel down the Hudson in a boat, btw? If so, any philosophical observations? Best wishes, Anthony .
