This is a lovely painting! I love the dreamy look in her eyes - I'm sure I look like that when I lift my eyes from a book I'm all caught up in. And, of course, Austen is on point!
That's a beautiful painting. It reminds me a lot of the type of painting my wife has chosen to hang over the years...lots of children from that era, etc. My favorite paintings are always those that make me tell myself some kind of story about what I see.

ReplyDeleteLove that painting; and a BIG yes to that quote, too!
ReplyDeleteThat's so gorgeous. I wonder why so many brilliant artists are not as well known as the really famous ones we're all familiar with. It's such a shame.

ReplyDeleteI love this picture. Makes me wonder what she's reading? Could it be The Secret Garden or maybe some Grimm fairy tales!
ReplyDeleteI love this picture so much! I would love to hang this one in my reading nook. My daughter loves to read there.
