Flandrin Derivative


I can't help but think that this is derived from Flandrin's famous painting.  It had time to become iconic between 1855 when the painting was done and 1875 when Marconi's career hit its stride.

  2. + un ommagio da artista ad artista

    il lavoro di Marconi è incredibile considerando la limitata tecnologia fotografica del suo tempo

  3. Very much so. Reminded me of one by von Gloeden.The painting by Flandrin in the Louvre is just flawless.
