Mariano Fortuny y Carbó, Spanish, 1838 - 1874 “Arab Chief” 1874. - Just saw this one today at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Fortuny’s paint surface rewards viewing from 20 feet and 2 inches. #bestartillustration
Jean-Baptiste Greuze - The Laundress (La Blanchisseuse) - 1761 - This painting is in the Getty, CA. I almost hesitate to post it here, even though these are great scans, they don’t do the painting justice at all. It’s a remarkable little painting in person
