On Saturdays, we like to highlight a piece of art, especially ones related to food and drink.  Today we return to a favorite artist, the great Impressionist, Edouard Manet.  In honor of the season, the piece is Still Life with Melon and Peaches (c.1866), oil on canvas, from the collection of the National Gallery of Art.

If you are looking for a great place to eat in Washington, D.C. we can help with that.  There are over 200 recommended restaurants in our dining guide searchable in both LIST and MAP format.
