All right, on with the next one ;-)

[Kristine]

Vermeeresque...Is it Dutch?

[Dirk, Moderator]

Not Vermeer (wrong century) and not Dutch...

[Ruth]

I’d guess Scandinavian.

[Geoffrey]

Wyeth?

[Dirk, Moderator]

Sorry Geoffrey, wrong continent and also wrong century.

And it is indeed not southern Europe, Ruth.

I'm sure this artist is better known then Corinth.
Maybe the second pic will help... but first I have to prepare dinner (fried fish with mashed potatoes, tomatoes and cucumber ;-)

Pretty as a picture. Can I come eat at your house?

[Dirk, Moderator]

Haha, you're always welcome Ruth!
Whenever you're in Belgium or Antwerp, just give me sign!
And that invitation stands for all of you, Heather, Geoffrey, Connie, Kristine and all the silent members... all are welcome!

[Kristine]

I wish...

It's the same the other way round, this weekend I learned that to see the painting "le déjeuner des canotiers (luncheon of the boating party)" You have to go to Washington!

I wish I could do that too!
