How I feel when I see an actor on TV who I only know from theatre
"Are they mad or wise?” I asked myself. I don't know, but if they are madmen, at least their madness is much more beautiful, more sublime, more touching than our sad wisdom.
The Fool of Firleiouwka by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch
I was just signing myself into the city library and they had a black silly kitten goofing around there🥺 I want to be a librarian when I grow up
Today I went to Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien so I'm posting the least atrociously photographed art I have from there ^^
Behold! Helena Fourment! (Only real ones know the context) (I am ashamed to admit this painting was the entire point of the trip and even after seeing it with my own eyes I still dislike it lol)
Judith with the head of Holofernes:
1. Carlo Sacareni
2. Simon Vouet. Always a pleasure to see his work in a gallery.
Ancient statue of godess Isis. She's so badass looking and the two colors of marble, breathtaking.
Girl in a fur, Tizian. I have no idea if Masoch ever saw this painting so just in case I am in love with her for him. But genuinely, my favourite from the "new" paintings that I saw today.
Me n who? (Idk who they are ngl)
Apollo and Daphne, Jakob Auer. One of those that impressed me the most.
More Apollo.
Dionysus, good to see you!
Aaand souvenirs:
(Somebody cure me of autism please)
Just finished crying about Gukesh winning, now I'm crying about Ding losing😭
Speedrunning german language because I have HAVE HAVE to read Die drei Kinder im Herrengarten by Marfa von Sacher-Masoch and all her hopelessly obscure work
