I noticed a pattern...

After leaving the Winter Antiques Show I scrolled back through the images on my phone and noticed there was a definite trend to the objects I photographed...

 An ancient torso...

A John Singer Sargent portrait...

An Art Deco mirror...

And a Rockwell Kent...

I really didn't know I was this predictable. 

Oh well, I guess there are worse things to be attracted to.

Something I saw

After a Sunday of shopping, I headed back to my friend's place where I'm temporarily staying and passed by this amazing Art Deco eglomise panel...

 

 

I don't know that beautiful is the right word, but these panels are definitely amazing in their severity. This building stands at 570 Lexington Avenue and was designed by Cross & Cross and built between 1929-1931. It was built for RCA but later deeded to General Electric before the building was even finished. 

I will definitely want to borrow this motif later on... especially the intertwined lightening bolts.
