Surprise! A New Episode! Sorry we didn't mention it. This isn't a story, not exactly, but it's a long and lovely conversation between our co-hosts. We talk about art and life. We talk about the past and the future. When we look at an old, famous painting, who is it that we're looking at anyhow? Also: we might be wrong about some tiny (giant) details, so feel free to tell us what you think and what mistakes we might have made. We're @saskiastories (Twitter), @saskiasbedtimestories...
