Another work that resides at the Ponce museum is the masterpiece by Edward Burne-Jones. Mr. Luis A Ferre was a big fan of Pre-Rafaelites artists. The museum was built to make his private collection available to children and young adults like me. My favorite garden was brought from Spain.

In a celebration of my Bluesky account working (semi) properly again, I’m tipping back some watered wine with this impressive 4th c. BCE Greek (Apulian) terracotta ram’s head rhyton. I don’t care that I’ll look like I’m wearing a critter mask when I drink. 🍷🏺 1/ #BritishMuseum 📸 me
