The whole iwtv cast is beautiful and could inspire generations of artists, but sometimes I'm sad that Caravaggio isn't around to paint Sam.
https://x.com/lunqrvp/status/1865913853269233743/photo/1
They are all soooo beautiful, anon, and Dreamstat in particular was next level (thank you to Sam's face, and also the hair and make-up team elevating the looks of Louis' hallucination, haha). Caravaggio would've been incredible with painting Sam / Lestat, and I've had a couple of asks (you might have sent one of them!) about which artists I'd have from history paint which actor, which ! I am slowly working on actually, I promise, haha, BUT!
She came up in conversation for me in real life the other day, and your ask re-prompted thoughts of her, but I just adore the Australian artist, Hilda Rix Nicholas' portraiture so much, and it's such a shame because a lot of her works are tied up in private collections (probably like the ones Louis has tbh!) so don't get shown much, but I just love her portraits. Here are a two she did in the 1910s that the Gallery of NSW currently has:

But! I also have a publication of some of her sketchbooks:

And yeah, I don't know, haha. She's someone I feel could've really drawn all of them, so I hear you on Caravaggio absolutely, haha, but tonight I also present the casse for Hilda Rix Nicholas!
(Like, this last one is literally Armand to me).
