A man walks out to the street and catches a taxi just going by. He gets into the taxi, and the cabbie says, “Perfect timing. You’re just like Frank.”

Passenger: “Who?”

Cabbie: “Frank Feldman. He’s a guy who did everything right all the time.

Like my coming along when you needed a cab, things happened like that to Frank Feldman every single time.”

Passenger: “There are always a few clouds over everybody.”

Cabbie: “Not Frank Feldman. He was a terrific athlete. He could have won the Grand-Slam at tennis. He could golf with the pros. He sang like an opera baritone and danced like a Broadway star and you should have heard him play the piano. He was an amazing guy.”

Passenger: “Sounds like he was really something special.”

Cabbie: “There’s more. He had a memory like a computer. He remembered everybody’s birthday. He knew all about wine, which foods to order and which fork to eat them with. He could fix anything. Not like me. I change a fuse, and the whole street blacks out. But Frank Feldman could do everything right.”

Passenger: “Wow, what a guy!”

Cabbie: ‘He always knew the quickest way to go in traffic and avoid traffic jams. Not like me, I always seem to get stuck in them. But Frank, he never made a mistake, and he really knew how to treat a woman and make her feel good. He would never answer her back even if she was in the wrong; and his clothing was always immaculate, shoes highly polished too. He was the perfect man! He never made a mistake. No one could ever measure up to Frank Feldman.”

Passenger: “How did you meet him?”

Cabbie: “I never actually met Frank. He died and I married his wife.”

The Mona Lisa is painted onto a panel of poplar wood, not a canvas.

Although it is arguably the most famous painting in the world, the Mona Lisa was not widely known until it was stolen from The Louvre in 1911.

Van Gogh only sold one painting in his lifetime.

The lady in the Mona Lisa painting has been identified as an Italian noblewoman named Lisa del Giocondo.

After the death of his brother, Dali became convinced that he was his brother’s reincarnation.

When Henri Matisse’s painting Le Bateau was first exhibited in New York, it was hung upside down. The mistake was not spotted for six weeks.

Van Gogh fell in love with his cousin, Kee. In response, his uncle banned him from their family home.

When asked why he never painted a self-portrait, the artist Gustav Klimt answered, “There is nothing special about me.”

Feelings are like children.
You don’t want them driving the car,
but you shouldn’t stuff them in the trunk either.

15 So you must be very careful how you live. Live like people who are wise. Do not live like fools. 16 Many bad things are happening in these days. So, whenever you have a chance to do something good, do as much as you can.

Leonardo da Vinci was able to write with one hand while drawing with the other simultaneously.

In the famous 1930 portrait American Gothic by Grant Wood, the couple is meant to be father and daughter, not husband and wife. Their relationship and the picture itself are fictional. Wood actually modeled the couple on his sister, Nan, and the family dentist, Byron McKeeby.

Pablo Picasso had a pet owl. He found the bird injured one day and nursed it back to health.

Vincent van Gogh’s famous Starry Night painting depicts the view from the insane asylum in Provence where he was institutionalized  for a time in the 1890s.

There are actually five versions of Edvard Munch’s famous painting, The Scream, including a pastel version, a lithographic print, and two crayon and tempura versions.

The German title under which Munch’s The Scream was originally displayed was The Scream of Nature.

The earliest picture of someone wearing spectacles was painted by an Italian artist named Tommaso da Modena in 1352.
