Tags: you know, expectations = { }, dead, I don't know, and, alma-tadema, ask me no more, a kiss, is it bogus of me to add the attribution?, it satisfies some impulse in me, _I_ would want to see it with the attribution, but I get that the image by itself makes other people happier, in this case the OP left it off, and since alma-tadema is so recognizable, i guess it isn't like the artist is being deprived of recognition, , probably not worth worrying about too much, when that time could be better spent, looking at art.

Tags: and this painting, the getty, lawrence alma-tadema, alma-tadema, spring, halloweden mentioned buying a print of this on her last trip to the getty, it's pretty amazing, i'm enjoying lippincott's book, it's such a fascinating story about art and empire, the way alma-tadema came into and then fell out of fashion, and now, with some perspective, has become popular again, really gets to the heart of that, such a richly imagined, but completely fictional world.
