...lessons of Velazquez's Las Meninas, which Sargent had copied in the Prado, sank very deep into his style and would produce curious effects tinged with melancholy, like the brilliant early portrait of the daughters of Edward Darley Boit--four slightly alienated-looking moppets, their white pinafores gleaming in a cavern of bourgeois shadow...
...Prado, in Spain, is one of the most horrific images ever painted by Goya: the god Saturn devouring one of his children. Mindful that an offspring could get in his way, Saturn made meals of all that he sired. In St. Charles, Mo., last week a modern parallel to that myth may have emerged.

City friends travel 25 miles from the capital to barter for his vegetables and meat, but since he has no fertilizer, no pesticides and no electricity to pump water for irrigation, his production...
