The Golden State

For my first visit to California I made it to several museums and the beach, was appropriately stuck in traffic for hours and ate well. I'll post pictures from my favorite museum visit:  the astounding private collection of Norton Simon in Pasadena.
From top left to lower right ... Van Gogh, Degas, a very curious and delightful Corot, Corot again, Rembrandt, then three details from Palma Vecchio's Venus and Cupid in a Landscape, Shiva, and Buddha setting.
