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.

A lot of his work is at the Dali Museum in Tampa, Florida. And his Last

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

likely beat me, but I prefer to see the Mona Lisa in print, in books or
on a poster.
Seeing her in person, up close, was WA not impressive.
The ACT of it was. "Hey! We did the Louvre! We saw the Mona Lisa!" But

Amazing, no? I spent a bit of time in the darkroom in school, but I've
generally been fine with printed photos in books since most photos are about
the subject matter rather than the craft of printing. However, Adams'
mastery of exposure and printing mean that looking at a photo in a book is
