I'm a 24 year old art historian from Richmond, VA. Am I too old for tumblr? Probably. I mostly re-blog other people's awesome stuff. I like pretty things. I like you.

From: SothebysThe sitter for The Black Sash is unknown (datable from costume details to 1905); at the time of the painting’s sale from the Baron de Rothschild’s collection, Madame Paulette Howard-Johnston (the daughter of Paul Helleu, a contemporary painter and friend of Boldini’s) suggested the red-headed beauty might be a Mrs. Law, an American socialite who also posed for Helleu.
