Lady Colin Campbell 1897
I've always admired the work of artist Giovanni Boldini, ever since I first saw one in a museum as a young boy. I'm in the process of having my portrait done, and will show it to you when it's finished. While not as grand and aristocratic as a Boldini - it will be a record of my person for all to see ! Many years ago I had my mothers portrait done, by Joseph Wallace King - at that time he was the only American to have ever painted Queen Elizabeth ! Here are some Boldini favorites... aren't they just so beautiful and romantic ? I'm crazy for them ! DF *****
