Can't let the day end without noting that it's Julie Manet's birthday. Here's her self-portrait with her dog, Laërtes, a few years after her mother, Berthe Morisot, painted them together.
Here are some more of Giovanna Garzoni's exquisite watercolors. This one is A Plate of Figs.
Berthe Morisot's dreams: to paint the wild & thrilling sea, to win the love of Edouard Manet, to be the alluring, intelligent woman Manet portrayed, and to have a child-but whose child? #ThursdayAesthetic
