So that's the painting that inspired Sondheim's musical, Sunday in the Park with George, which I'll admit I have not seen. Seems like pairing that musical with a viewing of the painting would be fun.
Thanks for the comment Frank, if only I had known I could have had the music playing. Im sure it would have enhanced the experience! I’m all about the multi medium cross pollination!
According to Wikipedia, Sondheim and James Lapine "spent several days at the Art Institute of Chicago studying the painting" so there's good precedent for what you're doing!

I really love this, Kyle. (I wrote a whole paper on that monkey for an art history class, once upon a time 😊 )
Thanks Sarah, I always appreciate your kind comments. What a fun coincidence about the monkey, I hope you still have that paper!
