Three children, with their little dog, too. By Sofonisba Anguissola, who died (alas!) on this day in 1625.
2/2 The artist's father, Amilcare Anguissola, with her siblings Minerva and Asdrubale in 1559. Not forgetting the dog, of course. Painted by Sofonisba Anguissola, whose day is today.
2/2 Gesina ter Borch's beloved brother Moses perished at the battle of Harwich in 1667. She painted this memorial picture of him: death rowing in to take him away. Also jumping out from behind a tree. Alas!
3/3 Sharing his snack with a younger boy: good kid! Drawn by Gesina ter Borch, who was born on this day in 1633.
Two washerwomen tamping laundry in a tub. Fascinating picture by Gesina ter Borch, who was born on this day in 1633. @womensart1 @NoteArtHerstory
3/3 And in Ochtervelt, there's always a dog! Often the same one. Good dog!
2/2 The musicians at Hogarth's Southwark Fair, 1733. Today is his birthday.
2/2 Skaters & kolf-players on a frozen river outside a village, 1648, by Aert van der Neer. It's his day today.
2/2 No more ocean but very wavy landscape from Joos de Momper of Antwerp. Today is his day.
2/2 A pitcher, and a bowl of plums, 1728. Masterful understatement of Chardin's still lives. It's his day today.
