For those that have been following me and my Art Talk series you might recall my Hands post of pictures taken on my trip to Ohio, Connecticut, New York City and DC at the end of last year. I found myself again drawn to the hands as I explored the Rijksmusuem in Amsterdam.
This first picture is an incredible painting of a beautifully wrinkled hand of an old woman reading painted by Rembrandt in 1631.

Hands do so many things: love, create, work, serve, caress, fight, guide, express, comfort.
