A Klimt Painting for Mother's Day

105 years ago, famous Austrian painter Gustav Klimt created a painting called "Three Ages of Woman" (portion shown in photo).

A forerunner in modern and symbolist art, his acclaimed works such as this forever influenced painters of the 20th century and today.

Besides Van Gogh, Klimt was my favorite painter. I remember buying a Hallmark card that has this painting of his as a cover and giving it to my mother - 11 years ago.

And so I pick this out for all the mothers out there and those who will become.

There's no better feeling than to cradle a sleeping child, a child which came out of your womb.

It's wonderfully arresting.

Thank God for the gift of Motherhood.
It's not a gift by the way, it is a miracle.

"Happy Mother's Day!"
