brandelynmarie Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 [quote name='Maximilianus' timestamp='1319850907' post='2328399'] These fellows look suspiciously similar. I'm thinking this is the same guy just posing as religious. Rembrandt did this with his son Titus. [/quote] I am finding several paintings where either a daughter or other lady posed as a nun. Good eye to catch that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aya Sophia Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I'm over the moon seeing all these paintings! I had seen only one of them before. Wouldn't it be wonderful to have them as postcards that you could keep in a box in a cabinet in the novitiate so that you could take them out and "go visiting" with them once in a while!

Feankie Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 I wish I could upload the pictures of the paintings of the crowned nuns I have, but I'm pretty much a slug when it comes to that kind of stuff. Any helpful hints? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
