Awhile back, in a thread I no longer remember the point of, I was 
mouthing off as
usual, That time, I launched on a whole thing about "monochrome" 
paintings/painters.  It was in response to a posted link to a picture of 
a Malevich painting of a colored square against a white field.  Thing 
was, I thought I was looking at a picture of a monochrome painting 
hanging on a wall.  My memory had abbreviated Malevich's entire career 
to his famous white on white painting and completely forgot what the 
majority of his oeuvre looked like.  So I "saw" what I expected to see. 
  Gilles responded very diplomatically as I recall.
