It’s a stunning painting. Had the privilege to stand in front of it and it’s truly breathtaking.

Glad to hear. It’s so big and vivid in real life, really surprised me!

It was a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be too! The exact opposite of the Mona Lisa which was so much smaller than I expected for some reason (still not sure why I expected it to be large given it’s a portrait…).

That’s what I heard from everyone that’s seen it. Also crowded out by 1000s of people with phones ;)
