We come across Jean Fouquet again

I wrote recently about seeing an old painting in a church. The religious painting was by Jean Fouquet and has pride of place in an ancient church.
About two days later we toured Chateau de Clos Luce where Leonardo da Vinci spent the last three years of his life. On the ground floor, in the oratory of Anne de Bretagne, is a 16th century Pieta, a delightful illumination by Jean Fouquet, depicting the Coronation of the Virgin.
Do you find that, once you come across something new, it turns up a couple times more within a short time?

Well, I do recall 2 places I've been where there were a number of Ancient American Indian petroglyphs on rocks, first was Hueco Tanks then there was Dog Canyon but those ancients didn't leave their names and no one has actually been able to determine which tribe might have drawn them.

Yes! And I find it more so when you get a new car. Seems you never notice many of them till you buy one and then that is all you see on the road!

Yes I do, it's like once you become aware of it you now actually see it where before your would have overlooked it.

As @andriaperry says, once you get a new car of a particular make, suddenly you start seeing them everywhere.

No, I guess not. And didn't Haydn's wife used his manuscript papers to curl her hair?

It's hard to work out any logic to these things sometimes.

Yes. I was reading the comments. It does seem to happen a lot with reading.

I wonder if there is any explanation for it or is it just a coincidence?
