You are definitely not the first person to feel that way! I kinda felt the same. But I think that's partly at least a function of the environment there. First of all you have to trek through like a mile or two of crowds to get there, then mill through the crowd in an attempt to get up close. She's

My best friends mum has some pieces of Dali in their house (HUGE house) ... All originals. They collected his works before he died. They paid like $27 for this plate he designed (they found it in their travels through Spain) And one of his Don Quioxote paintings hangs in their entry foyer. This is

A lot of his work is at the Dali Museum in Tampa, Florida. And his Last Supper is in the Smithsonian Art Museum in D.C. It's in the elevator/stairwell of the east (north?) wing (the side closer to the Capitol). Saying it's in the stairwell sounds crappy, but you have to experience riding down the e

Dali tickles my brain! I don't know about the Lovre, but most of his stuff is in the Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, FL. I've seen one or two of his paintings up close.  I've also seen several of his sculpture/painting hybrid thingies up close.  The paintings I like are even better in person.

While I'm not one to really criticize DaVinci's technical capabilities, I too am often disappointed looking at the actual painting. Maybe not disappointed, but certainly the reality doesn't always match my imag
