A very famous painting, featured on
a blog consisting of little else but pictures of ladies, more often than not with their norks out. Still it's art, and it's all in French, so I suppose that makes it all right. The ladies are the Duchess of Villars and her sister Gabrielle d'Estrées, who also (if you were wondering about the unusual embonpoint) features here
in the same post.
