Quito, Ecuador- Day 4

Day 4 in Quito:

On our last day we went to the Oswaldo Guayasamin Museum, Ecuador's most famous artist. In addition to his own art, he collected pre-Colombian pottery and various crucifixes.

"Although considered an expressionist, the humanitarian in Osvaldo Guayasamin is said to be the biggest reoccurring theme in his work. His work is said to reflect some of the pain and misery that humanity has had to endure. In this regard, nearly all of his work denounces all the violence and genocide that Oswaldo Guayasamin is said to have born witness to during his life-time." Destination360.com




Why the daily photo of us? Just proving to family that we are still alive and well.

Wow, looks like a great trip. From the pictures I can see why you guys enjoy Quito so much. Oh, if only we could make another trip south to see that part of Ecuador. All is well in Boise. Winter keeps hanging on. Skiing is still great at Bogus and there is even talk of snow in the valley. Gotta love March in Idaho.
