]]> Comment on Sebastiano Ricci: Neptune and Amphitrite (1691–94) by disgustavo http://vcrfl.wordpress.com/2012/01/24/sebastiano-ricci-neptune-and-amphitrite-1691-94/#comment-720 Sat, 01 Dec 2012 20:50:29 +0000 http://vcrfl.wordpress.com/?p=1065#comment-720 I agree. Bouche spent four years in Italy from 1727, so that he was able to see Ricci’s as well Amigoni’s or Pellegrini’s paintings.

]]> Comment on Portrait of Henriette Verniac by Jacques-Louis David (1799) by tobeimean peter http://vcrfl.wordpress.com/2011/12/23/portrait-of-henriette-verniac-by-jacques-louis-david-1799/#comment-639 Tue, 01 May 2012 06:24:03 +0000 http://vcrfl.wordpress.com/?p=62#comment-639 The passion for neo-Hellenic simplicity in fashion always seemed lyrical to me in spite of the enormities the French armies were inflicting in Europe. David was a good painter, and this is a wonderful portrait. Henriette Verniac still lives – as lovely and full of bougeoisie charm as she was in 1799.
