The buttress of the railway viaduct? Never seen a horse there before ... have only ever seen the buttress LOL
"...Haven't thought about Chaim Soutine in years, Dove - thanks for the reminder. And that is lovely. Must be gorgeous to see the texture of the real thing...."
The paint is absolutely sumptuous LG
And can't you just see that Rembrandt really appreciated the female body as it really is and not as folk nowadays think it ought to be?

I love this portrait of Anne of Cleves by Hans Holbein:-
Quite agree, Dove.
And now I've seen the horse I'll never be able to unsee it!
Madpenguin, HOW did I miss out Holbein?!! Wonderful. Though again, it's his drawings that do it for me, really.

Sorry that has not copied properly.
Should have been Edward Hopper's, Nighthawks.

Amazingly descriptive sense of line.

At the risk of sounding as if I like EVERYTHING - nice choice, punkdoc. I sometimes find myself in environments which make me feel like I'm in a Hopper painting. There's a certain light, a certain not-comfortable quiet.
