    Totally stumped. I know Goya was responsible for at-least one in that film. -{

    yeh, me too.... I've just spent the last hour trying to find it... and nada.

    I've noticed however that someone has posted the same question on ask.com - but alas no one had answered it.

    I do have an art conservationist friend.... so I might just ask her - and see if she can help!

    Prima facie, it would seem somewhat biblical, almost Edenic. Perhaps consider that. -{

    and I'm sure 15 century.... but yes, biblical. Tried all forms of Eve in garden, but nothing... :#

    Will see what I come up with... -{

    It looks a bit Cranach the Elder

    But derivative.

    Did you see the painting the Louvre bought of him? It was financed mostly by small donations from the public. I LOVE that painting and it's a very good idea what they did.

    no problem...someone from another forum I'm on was trying to find out the same thing. You can buy it for $18k, but I haven't been able to find any prints just yet. http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/julie-heffernan--study-for-self-portrait-as-big-idea--artwork-details-at-artnet

    This is a great find... well done. I was wondering how you found it... what on earth did we do before the internet... :))
