On January 11, I posted a photo I had taken in The Museum of Russian Art. To refresh your memory, if you missed that post, here is a description of the museum taken from their website:
The Museum of Russian Art (TMORA), is a member-supported non-profit
that preserves and displays historically significant examples of
Russian art and artifacts. It is the only museum in North America
solely dedicated to the preservation and presentation of Russian art
and artifacts. Through the universal language of art, TMORA visitors
explore new and unique perspectives of Russia, a country with a
recorded history that spans over one thousand years. Recognizing the
importance of educating current and future generations about Russian
art and culture, TMORA exhibitions are designed to provide our guests
with an opportunity to examine important artistic achievements and
historical events through the works of Russia’s most esteemed artists.

A touching portrait and one that is repeated daily all around the world. Mother and child. An eternally immutable bond.
