#Vigee le brun painting herself with her daughter and anguissola painting her little sister is so ❤️ ❤️#There is so much tenderness radiating from those pictures#I love how the frans hals so much as well the woman looks so kind and it’s like her soul is preserved in that painting forever#Like that was a real woman!! Who really lived!!#And the woman in the Ruben’s has so much intelligence and mischief and cunning and life#She was his first wife (who died of the plague aged 34) and you can tell how much affection he has for her#Art
