This is a stain glassed window from Hot Springs National Park in Arkansas. It’s located in one of the bathhouses they preserved that used to serve the people who wanted to feel the medical benefits of the hot springs. My sister and her family like to throw in history whenever they get to travel, and this was one of the places on their way back from Alabama. I asked her about the segregated bathhouses, and was the one for whites grander than the other, and she said no. They actually explained around that time some minorities were gathering wealth of their own so while they were not treated equally, being able to pay gave a beautiful place for minorities to take in the hot springs too. (Sometimes I can’t believe how stupid people are.)
This stained glass was smaller than the other pictures she took, but I LOVE it. It made me think of @sallypup as well since her interest in art runs along the same lines as mine. I appreciate Monet, absolutely, but other things draw my eye in too. Of course, stained glass is one of them.
What is your favorite kind of art?

I don’t know that I have a “favorite” type of art. I look at each thing individually. I do loved stained glass windows. When you read what goes into making a stained glass window, especially the older ones, you can’t help but admire even the most plain ones!

Stained glass is very ornate and beautiful but I think my favorite are sculptures. I just admire the talent so much to make them.

Stained glass is lovely, especially in churches. I love all kinds of art and I am presently working on art articles for Vocal Media.

Thanks for the mention. Your stained glass stopped me. Glorious piece. And historical. Oh my. I am not a fan of modern art with those unexplained splashes of who knows what but art that features botanical and whimsy nails me. Beatrix Potter is known for kid's art but she actually painted realistic renditions. She studied nature and knew what she was talking about.

Well, before I really liked everything Victorian, but lately I've been leaning more towards minimalism. In fact, it calms me down, it gives me peace. When I sit in a minimalist place, it gives me that feeling.The feeling of pleasure of enjoying just one or two colors will suddenly be due to the changes of age where less is more.

It looks like the window glass in the old churches but it has a different shapes.
I don't really into arts, but if I can see a nice one I like it.

Not really an "art" person, but I do like stained glass.

I love stained glass; but I also love paintings. I would love to be able to go back to the Cleveland Museum of Art some day.

I just love stained glass too.
It has always been something that I've known my entire life, in the church windows, in old homes of family members that we've visited in years gone by.
My current favorite kind of art is done by a couple of sweet artists, better known as Harper and Willow. 
Our son has been texting us a couple of times a day with pictures of the girls enjoying their trip to Montreal, and of course he has mentioned that they miss and ask for Grandpa every single day. I hope that they can let go and enjoy the time as a family knowing that Grandpa will be at their home after vacation time is over.
Willow is quick to tell you that she likes to go places 'as a family' and she means the 4 of them.
