Magda K I should know who painted these (especially the Lady Godiva) ... but who painted these?
Magda K Also, Angela McInnes reminds me a lot of Lady Mary on Downton Abbey!

WinterRose magzkam: I thought the very same thing re Lady Mary!!
WinterRose I love these so much!!
Magda K Oh, Collier! & I keep seeing "art of the day by British painter (d.1934) born this day in 1850; Angela McInnes (1914)"
Rowan Ya, he typo'd then fixed
Magda K Strange ... I can't see the fix on my timeline. Oh well.
AhnyankaD I can't see it either, sadly! Thanks for the update! grins Always loved that Lady Godiva painting.
Magda K Aha! There it is!
Viksbelle the Lady godive is lovely, but I wonder at the true gender of the model. Harder to tell from a side view, but thos hips look too
Viksbelle small/narrow to eb female
Viksbelle and i can't type worth a crap
Corgi saves the Priestess of Bacchus for a friend
Michele I am in love with Pomps and Vanities - thanks so much for posting. He is amazing!
Rowan I'm fairly certain the model would have been female at this time - possibly a young women, and very possibly poor/underfed.
Rowan I won't necessarily wager prostitute, but it is a possibility.
Michele I want a print of Pomps and Vanities (for my bathroom) but i can't find any print shops that are carrying it.
Michele If anyone sees a place let me know!!
