Two-piece suit, USA, 1892 Absolutely incredible style here. The cut of the jacket is just sublime, and the embroidery (?) is a simple design, but massively elevates the overall look of the outfit. Just a perfect suit, I love it so much! #fashionhistory #dresshistory #fashionsky #ootd #TheMet

"The Metropolitan Museum of Art Puts 490,000 High-Res Images Online & Makes Them Free to Use"

The number of art pieces alone is staggering to contemplate. Having them freely available to browse is incredible, and to then put a #HiRes #scan for all of them into the #PublicDomain is astonishing.

A lifetime of #museum visits to view remarkable #art without a lifetime of travel. No, you don't get exactly the same experience, but holy brushstrokes, Batman...!!!

The moon is in it's first quarter. That usually means that i need to start thinking about the next issue of the Liminal that comes out every new moon.

Instead I'm counting spoons.

Here's a 1635 engraving of the moon from The Met instead.

In the past 5 yrs, the #MetropolitanOpera has drained money from its endowment, entered a still-tentative $200M deal with Saudi Arabia & cut its performance schedule as it struggled to bring stability to an institution hammered by the #coronavirus #pandemic.

But in the latest sign of the persistent financial challenges facing the largest #PerformingArts org in the #US, #TheMet announced Tuesday that it would lay off workers, cut the salaries of its top-paid execs & postpone a new production….

So sad!
