Or is it so simple that a reading model won't move?<br />What I find so fascinating is that there are all kind of paintings, good, bad, cheap and outstanding - I love the mix!<br />Margarethaemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01463254055979575950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7208261623835021066.post-63778498801188752082010-01-22T01:06:35.871+01:002010-01-22T01:06:35.871+01:00These are wonderful images of people reading.

I've looked up a few more of JohnWhite Alexander's paintings and all of his female characters seem to be very tall and elegant.
