More intellectual enrichment for FREE with these museum books. Expand your mind! — Douglas
You could pay $118 on Amazon for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s catalog The Art of Illumination: The Limbourg Brothers and the Belles Heures of Jean de France, Duc de Berry. Or you could pay $0 to download it at MetPublications, the site offering “five decades of Met Museum publications on art history available to read, download, and/or search for free.”
If that strikes you as an obvious choice, prepare to spend some serious time browsing MetPublications’ collection of free art books and catalogs.
A view up Grand Avenue with the Walt Disney Concert Hall and The Broad in the foreground.
Taken from the top floor of the Stanley Mosk Courthouse while on jury duty today. I always make a point of taking photos from this rather unique perspective when I am here. The Music Center is nearby too but the entire plaza is closed off for new construction.
I tend to stay in for lunch in order to avoid another trip through security and at least the views are nice.
Not my favorite way to spend a day or 2, but it is a civic duty we should all do. You would want someone to do the same for you should you ever need it.
It is also important to see the “real world” of jurisprudence and not only the distorted view that television shows us.
