A Favorite Painting


 Which I used to see frequently in the Galleria Palatina in the Pitti Palace in Florence..... love the distribution of tones, the sense of movement, the central contrast of the figures of Aphrodite and Mars, and the message - an allegorical portrayal of the horrible results of war....
