It reminds me of a book I recently read called England's Mistress by Kate Williams. It's about Lady Hamilton, who becomes famous as a model for painters Joshua Reynolds and George Romney in the 18th century. She becomes famous for her classical poses. She even gives private shows of her "attitudes". Thanks for the the fascinating post.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01725556368895354003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117194181116669144.post-91923017047678067182012-03-28T21:24:35.759-07:002012-03-28T21:24:35.759-07:00This made me giggle!

If my husband were to choose, he would go with the artist and his wife pose - he, sitting higher up with confidence, me, with a slight blush and a protective hand over his. For me, the Jacques Louis David speaks volume about us at this moment - he, using the kitchen and the dining room table as his desk, papers strewn all over, while I am leaning over his shoulder (again!) with an air of despair thinking "oh when are you going to move your ---- up to the office and leave me in peace!".
