  1. That is an interesting pose - almost uncomfortable with the idea of being a portrait. I'm not quite sure if I like the whole effect; but it certainly makes you wonder why.

  4. This was Newberry in his 'Rembrandt' period. Lots of shadow, from which figures with depth and three-dimensions emerge into the light.

    At life-size that effect is truly stunning.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
