Maybe these paintings are better in person. Jane Freilicher’s paintings tend to feel washed out online. Even in reproduction Morandi is able to build up opacity more convincingly. A side by side comparison would be helpful. Bannard’s famous quote comes to mind: “I don’t mind looking at them. And that is saying a lot these days”.
