(Basenji) Life Imitates Art


It has been said that art imitates life, but sometimes the opposite is true. Here is Ruby's take on the subject.


1)  Edgar Degas: The Star (1876-1877)



Ruby:




2)  Theo van Rysselberghe:  Woman in a Mirror



Ruby:



3)  Pablo Picasso: Femande with a Black Mantilla (1905)



Ruby:




4)  Lady with a Boa   (unknown -  possibly Alice Neave)



Ruby:




5)  Andrew Wyeth:  Christina's World



Ruby:




6) Poster of Rod Steiger in movie 'Illustrated Man'



Ruby:




7)  Johannes Vermeer: Girl with a Pearl Earring



Ruby:
(Okay, this is a bit of a stretch, I admit. Ruby put up with a lot from me, but even she wouldn't have tolerated a pearl earring! I asked her, but she just covered up her head and went back to sleep.)
