Finished the final tale in The Mabinogion—Geraint and Enid.
The most straightforward of the bunch: less magic, more chivalry. Arthur shows up strong, and it’s long, but never dull.
Definitely felt some Orpheus & Eurydice vibes, a little Samson too.

Not my favorite, not my least. Just solid, noble storytelling. A fine end to this wild Welsh ride.

Artemisia didn’t just paint women.
She saw them.

With wrath. With grace. With light.

Raise a glass of sake.
Put on Precipice.
And remember what a woman can do.

Thanks for joining me for this edition of Afternoon Art Critic.
May it echo across time… even half as well as those paintings did.
