Roger, if I remember well, Velazquez used to do it as well. He appears in Las Meninas, in The Surrender of Breda and other paintings.

P.S. This is getting better and better.

I know that many will enoy this posting. It's a little special.

1905 Poland. Many people were experiencing patriotic feelings about their country. Troubled times around the world.

Artists like Wincenty Wodzinowsky (1864 - 1940) were expressing their feelings on canvas in the latest of art style.

This painting shows the artist with a woman comforting him and representing Poland.

The artist studied in Cracow at the School of Fine Arts.
