Hi Bev, Thanks for the visit! I wish you'd come around more often. And yes, it's a lovely painting. I've been unsuccessful trying to find the artist. I believe it's a close-up (a part) of a larger painting of the Three Graces. This would be one of them. Notice the apples, which often appear in their hands. But the Graces were painted by Botticelli, Rafael and several other famous artists over time, right up to the 19th. Century. I'll continue investigating. Best, Syl  QUOTE (Peterpan @ Sep 16 16, 07:52 )  WOW, What a great painting! Bev ······· ·······Mis temas favoritos
