That is a beautiful painting!
He did such beautiful work. I remember seeing one of his portraits when we toured Biltmore. Just lovely.
He is one of my favourite artists!
I adore Madame X at the Museum of Metropolitan Art.

Hi PVE-I also love Madame X. Have you read the book about the painting I am Madame X, by Gionia Diliberto? It is very interesting!
