Into the Vulgate

If 16th- and 17th-century European genre paintings could talk, what would they say today? How would they say it? How could they say it in a language everyday people would understand? And if a painting talks in a museum, do the other paintings hear it? And if the other paintings hear it, what do they say? And do sculptures hear it, too, or do they only hear their own kind? Now, at the present time, more than ever before the time just passed … hm hm hm time passages doo doo dee doo (Al Stewart) … art appreciation even in its basest form is most rudimentary, nay, necessary.
