Celeste,
No, I do not have any other thoughts on the subjects you are discussing, sorry. I have not retained much of what I learned in college art history classes...I am reading with interest though.
John,
Even though you are clearly over-educated you are saved in my book by your sense of humor.
I am just wondering if that portrait had been painted full-figure - would we get to see the tights?
