I was a little surprised to notice that I have received over 3,000 visits to my Brancusi posts over the last day or so. It's not as if they are particularly good photos as you can see below
It wasn't until I opened Google to see why
Yesterday was the 135th anniversary of Brancusi's birth and Google had created a doodle to mark the occasion. This explains everythingI hope that some visitors will want to learn more about Brancusi. He truly was one of the greatest ever sculptors.

Well done Jams!
Goin' viral ... good one, Jams!
I was puzzled why they were getting so many visits until I twigged!
Thank you for your posts. I love your presentations. I discovered Brancusi, in 1984, at the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario). We only have one Brancusi sculpture called The First Cry. It's so simple but with such deep poignancy: a head in the form of a womb, and a gouged mouth. When I first saw it, I cried....Then I've been learning more about him ever since. I envy your visits to the Museum. But we're so fortunate now with the Internet for the nearness and the extent of what is offered.
wonderful use of light
quite interesting sculptures and i do like your captures of them. have a good weekend!
I wish I had discovered Bancusi earlier. I only did so about 6 years ago. I have tried to make up for lost time Claude!
Magiceye, Marites, Thanks!
It was funny - I hadn't heard of Brancusi before - when I popped tino google and saw the pic I had to do some research. What a fascinating artist.
I;m glad you have discovered Brancusi, JDeQ. His work truly is worth investigating
I'm glad Google has some clever bast*rds :-) that allowed so many to find your great pictures.
Why thank you Susan!
