Now, the Brooklyn #Museum is helping establish her legacy in the borough by acquiring a portrait of Ginsburg by New York artist Constance P. Beaty, which was donated by Ginsburg herself. – Courtesy of #DiegoVoci https://www.diegovociproject.com/

#DIEGO TAKES YOU TO THE #FRENCH COAST

This masterly rendered canvas by internationally collected artist Antonio Diego Voci (1920-1985) is titled Jeunes Filles a la Fenêtre (Young Girl at the Window).  It was purchased by Eugene Pizzo Jr. in Spangdahlem on August 7, 1980 for $940.  This is one of a few thousand Diego works (including drawings) still scattered around the world.

As a viewer you are hereby anointed as a scout.  Go hunting.  They could be anywhere in any country on a wall, under the bed, in a garage, in a yard sale, in a gallery, on eBay.  They are out there somewhere.  Help make Diego Voci history complete. diegovociproject@gmail.com
