I like Henri Rousseau's body of works, particularly his depictions of exotic, mysterious dreams. Each time I visited MoMA, I would stop by the hall where the works of this self-taught French artist are exhibited. His painting,
the Dream, completed in 1910, is my most favorite. What inspired him and provided him with the stuff his Dream is made of is as mysterious as how the woman lying on the couch found herself in the middle of a jungle, surrounded by outlandish animals,plants, and figures.
