Once stolen and luckily returned. While studying for a tour of a 17th-century contemporary of his, I saw this. Zoom in on his eyes. What a movingly beautiful self-portrait. 24 years old.. I love this. Almost 400 years later, it could easily be the young man living next door. (Not my photo)

Masterpiece Art Runway: Part 2

'Valsen' by Anders Zorn. Zorn is a painter i've never seen work of in the flesh, but I would LOVE to. The brushwork is incredible and his ability to capture a moment is wonderful. #painting #zorn #painter #masterpainter
'Strolling Along The Seashore' - Joaquin Sorolla. The second one I don't know the name of. Master of light! #oilpainting #masterpainter #painting
'A Ray Of Sunlight' John White Alexander again - just gorgeous composition and handling of light. #painting #masterpainter #oilpainting
'Afternoon Repose' by John White Alexander. WOW. Big fan of the composition of this one, the fabric again is handled incredibly. Those brushstrokes! So inspiring! Check out his work, lots of swooping dresses like this in it! #painting #masterartist #masterpainter
