Great!! Many thanks!

When you finished I was out of breath! You’ve nailed the whole situation. Vasari was a second rate painter who hung his hat on “The Lives “. But your correlation of the frescoes with the Medici is brilliant. I’ve stayed with you through a plate of baked penne and salad , and did not miss a word. Great job and work. Can’t say enough. Thank you.

Cennino Cennini compared some aspects of painting with 'cookery'.

Could we - possibly - consider thinking for ourselves as unique human beings - and stop - automatically - saying, to every question, "That's a great question." Can we not stay consciously awake?
