Turn of the Century Swedish Babes!

Why did you choose to throw a Swedish painter in there that painted 'healthy' girls? Has something been missed here? Is my blonde hair getting in the way of understanding things here!

Yes, Zorn did beautiful portraits and what I think are even better nudes, than portraits! I love all his nudes.

Is it that all three saw things almost in the same light?

Tim, you made a good point and I'm glad you brought up Anders Zorn. He is just another example from that particular era that validates art was at its best right then and there. What happened to make it all change like it has? Where's a time machine when you need one?

Looking at Zorn's nudes makes this middle-aged gal feel a little bit better about herself.

I still like Cecilia best!
