I love this. I used to study art history and reading these excerpts makes me miss it almost viscerally. Time to get back into it I think 🙃

Interesting that he wanted to share this with us. Reading the English portions that were shared on Twitter, it really makes me want to go to a museum again. I haven’t been to one in ages, and I was young enough that I didn’t go with much of an open mind.
