Norton Simon Museum



     Today we visited Norton Simon Museum.There're a lot of beautiful and interesting paintings.At the beginning we saw the painters of the Middle Ages.Some of exponents were so realistic.When you regarding the painting it's so difficult to believe that this work was painted by man and it's not a photo.Then,we moved to the hall of the Modern Art.As for me it was more impressively.We saw  works by:Van Gogh,Claude Monet,Russian painter Liubov Popova and Diego Rivera that  I liked.
     As I said I liked Diego Rivera and his amazing  painting "The Flower Vendor".I want to tell you something about it.
    This painting was painted on 1942 and is one of Diego Rivera most famous paintings. He painted quite a few paintings of calla lilies through his life. This painting has a peasant girl with a blue scuff and bare foot holding a bundle of white calla lilies.
    In my opinion  your attention attracts the Flowers .There're  so big and boundless!Thats why "The Flower Vendor" is awesome!
