    I'd love one these takeouts to pick a wall and describe the metal, paintings and additional objects relationships as designed by Dr. Barnes. We have spent a lot of time discussing these relationships between ourselves. The objects you have covered have been so interesting!

    Do you see the Pretzel and the loaves of bread are a face, the plants around it the shape of a head, and of course it has the King's crown. You didn't mention this

    Wonderful discussion on a very cool object. I especially liked the story about the bakers saving the day against the Turks. Who couldn't appreciate a tankard so full of beer that you had to drag it!! Prost!!

    Thank you for the Takeout talks. I love focusing on one piece each day and that will enhance my appreciation when I visit. I suggest that you continue these beyond the pandemic. They greatly add to your appeal. Also, I second a prior suggestion that on occasion you focus on a wall and discuss the ensemble. This is a wonderful gift and much appreciated.

    A wonderful presentation, but if you cut down on the word "um" it will give you much more authority, especially since you are soft spoken.

    very interesting! but is it just me, or does anyone else think that the crest looks like a clown's face?

    I had difficulty hearing your soft voice. Old age I guess. Sorry I missed most of what you had to say. If you do this again, could you speak louder? Thanks👍

    Although I had no difficulty hearing Amy's voice, for those who do, I suggest that you consider using the close captioning that is available for many KZread offerings. On my MacBook Air, it's easy to turn on by clicking on the "CC" in a small box at the lower right corner of the screen. I hope that this helps you.
