Bonjour cher Anthony,
ReplyDeleteUne belle photo de groupe que vous avez repris dans cette magnifique oeuvre. Je trouve si beau que vous croquiez votre maman...
Je vous fais de gros bisous ♡
Thank you
DeleteDrawing from these old photos is sort of like taking a look through another lens and seeing into a previous lives.
There is so much in this painting, the details are amazing, happy to see your mom again, I wonder if the people in the back were upset about not being shown, this truly an excellent representation of the past in such extreme beauty
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI did enjoy sort of bringing this past moment back to life..
It seems like they were talking and stopped for sec to pose for the photo..and little girl maybe was overwhelmed by adults' attention...very vivid picture, love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you
DeleteThere is something so poignant about this wonderful painting.
DeleteI'm not sure if it is the fact that it is a moment in time captured forever...or if it is the intrigue of the story behind it...I just long to spirit myself into the frame and become a part of it...:)
I think it’s the posing, the obvious placement of the children, and overt attention directed to one. A typical photograph, I suppose, though I couldn’t resist this attempt..
