Visual notes from Providence

Several times a week I break out of Davol Square around midday, grab the camera and head off downtown, usually stopping at the RISD Museum; a great place to lose oneself:

Juliette Recamier in the center -- Gaetan Vestris on the left side of the wall

Coincidence, perhaps but Juliette and Gaetan are buried just a few meters away form each other in Montmartre Cemetery, Paris.
