Great stuff, and thanks for posting. That portrait of Olga Picasso reminds us just how good the guy really was.

Hey, I got that piece of art hanging in my study. How’d you get a copy of it? I was told it was an original.

You are correct. However, what you posted indicates that the artist has more skills than I have. I leveled off with stick men and women in about the 5th grade and never improved.

Thanks. My favorite was "Piano Practice Interrupted". I could spend hours looking at such paintings.

I was just inches away from a medieval painting at the Getty Museum recently when one of the security people admonished me. I was incredulous at how well preserved the yellow paint was after so many hundreds of years.

The price I paid for the opportunity was a lengthy appreciation of the landscaping.

Interesting. The artist softened the eyes but otherwise you could guess that the painting was made from the photo.

Portraits from 1519 to 2019

and the length of the video is 15 minutes 19 seconds.

That’s an interesting test of editing.

Now if you preferred the FUTURE rather than the PAST, I have the song for you:

You might not know the show, but you must know the words deep down.

What a nice way to spend 15 minutes on a Sunday afternoon.
