We swung out to Newport, R.I., yesterday to see the replica frigate l’Hermione, a French copy of the ship on which the Marquis de Lafayette sailed back to America in 1780. What a beautiful vessel!

The ship will be in Newport again today!

Okay, so I’m seeing another trend come back around, and it’s frustrating for me personally, since it shows that although I’m doing my best to change people’s assumed perceptions of European art history, there’s still a lot of work to be done.

Example 1: This white...
