Wonderful! I am not familiar with either artist so it was a treat to see some of their works.

And the choice of music was superb.

I was raised from babyhood on a book of Academic nudes that mother gave me, that had originally belonged to my grandmother when she studied at the Art Institute. These were two of my favorite artists. The very first book I ever scanned and put online was that book.

Those were two of my favorite artists. I’m currently doing another one, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, and might stay with those artists for a bit. I’ve gone MAD trying to find the right music. Tadema does Roman scenes. So I tried Thomas Tallis. Latin, right? But the religion just struck you too strongly and it WAS ancient Rome, after all. Then I looked at Carimina B., in Latin, but the mood was wrong. I’ve settled on jazzed up Bach, with my fingers crossed.
