The Art Institute of Chicago

Paris Street; Rainy Day

Haven’t been back to Chicago for years (O’Hare doesn’t count)… if I get a chance to go this Summer, I would definitely visit the Art Institute again.

The special Rembrandt exhibition that year was quite an eye-opener. I recall there was a huge lineup.

 

The other painting I like was called "Paris Street; Rainy Day", you can almost feel the damp coldness from it:

AGO is simply no match (even with the Frank Gehry renovation). Chicago is still miles ahead of Toronto.
