-ART- Stendhal syndrome

Stendhal syndrome, Stendhal's syndrome, hyperkulturemia, or Florence syndrome is a psychosomatic illness that causes rapid heartbeat, dizziness, fainting, confusion and even hallucinations when an individual is exposed to art, usually when the art is particularly beautiful or a large amount of art is in a single place. The term can also be used to describe a similar reaction to a surfeit of choice in other circumstances, e.g. when confronted with immense beauty in the natural world.

This is the definition of Stendal syndrome.
Did you experiences about that?
Sure it's not common but in France, per year almost 10 people fall in a faint.
So near the museum in France some ambulance like that always stan by.

and i had a similar feeling like that (but never never fall in a faint) with looking th bedroom in arle

When i was 17, i went to the art museum with my friend.
many paintings were there.
but, in front of this picture, i shocked
the color overwhelmed me
i just stand in shock
i never forgot the moment.

It 's a private experience and it's nothing to someone
but i 'm sure that if you feel various feeling, your life is more richness
