The windowsill, a humble yet captivating feature of our everyday lives. It serves as a portal to the outside world, offering glimpses into different eras and landscapes through various artistic expressions. One such artwork is "Fenetre a la Goulette" by Albert Marquet, painted in 1926. Through this window, we are transported to the coastal town of La Goulette, where sunlight dances on the water's surface and boats sway gently in the harbor. In "Window in Spring, " created in 1992, we witness nature's rebirth as vibrant blossoms frame an open window. The scent of fresh blooms fills the air, inviting us to embrace the beauty of springtime. A more whimsical scene unfolds in "Sleeping Cat and Chinese Bridge. " This oil painting captures a serene moment where a content feline rests upon a windowsill overlooking an enchanting bridge. A perfect blend of tranquility and artistry. "The Four Seasons" series takes us on a journey through time with hand-colored drypoint & aquatint prints. In "Spring, " delicate flowers bloom outside while inside lies warmth and comfort. As summer arrives, vibrant colors burst forth from every corner in celebration of life's vibrancy. Winter brings stillness; frost paints intricate patterns on glass panes while snow blankets rooftops below. Moving away from artistry but not lacking intrigue is an image titled "Orchids. " Here we find ourselves amidst an assortment of hybrid orchids adorning a living room windowsill in Lower Saxony, Germany. Their exotic allure adds elegance to any space they inhabit. Contrasting this beauty is Shirley Markham's photograph capturing "Dead plants on a windowsill" from 1952. A reminder that even within decay lies its own unique charm—a testament to life's impermanence etched onto aging leaves and wilted petals. As seasons change and winter approaches with its chilling winds, we are reminded of the famous phrase "winter is coming.
