F. Scott Hess Museum : The Hours of the Day : Champagne

Champagne

F. Scott Hess

10 p.m. in my Hours of the Day series, Champagne depicts a couple in a hotel room in an unidentified port city. The red blanket, emblem of the eroticism of the evening hours, dominates the center of the composition. The atmosphere is melancholy, a post-coital reverie. The abandoned remains of an hor dourves and dessert tray litter a table to the lower left, while the woman raises her champagne glass for one more sip.

If you register and login you can view and post comments. (huh?)

One of the perks of membership is that you get to read and post comments on objects, museums, and other member's walls.

Comments aren't exactly secret (almost anybody can register!) but they aren't totally public either - they aren't indexed by searched engines and the user agreement says you can't publish them elsewhere without their author's permission.

(And some users have chosen to restrict access to their personal walls - in which case you'll have to friend them before you can post to their wall.)

Please don't feel excluded. It doesn't cost anything to register. Just sign up and you'll be an insider in no time flat.
