Painting on the Beach in Rio

It looks like a lovely day painting on a beautiful beach in Rio de Janeiro.

Tony Bennett at the Americans in Florence Exhibition at Palazzo Strozzi

Prior to his tour of Europe this past summer, Mr. Bennett spent some time in Florence, Italy.

Today, we are very happy to be able to point to a video of Mr. Bennett commenting on the Americans in Florence exhibition at the Palazzo Strozzi museum.

It’s fascinating to hear Mr. Bennett talk about the paintings and his passion for the paintings and the exhibition.

There are some wonderful John Singer Sargent paintings shown.

Monterey – my favorite spot in the world to paint. Wherever I look there's a gorgeous subject. pic.twitter.com/bh63k7qf
