Naked men
Yesterday, I saw the Eakins painting of the "ole boys at the swimming hole" that was one of those featured on one of ARC's Eakins' pages. I personally think the flaws of painting from weak photos are very obvious here. There are several places where you can tell he didn't have good info and just faked it -"blurred and blended" and hoped no one would notice. This was once one of my favorite paintings. Our goals and appreciations change over time.
