Q25. Marie with a Rose
This is a study of a well-known paint for Marie Antoinette, the wife of Louis X VI where she wears a gorgeous dress and a hat. But in this illustration, she wears a simple dress and no hat in order that I would like the size of artwork file to be smaller. As a result, I feel like she looks a human being rather than a dress-up doll.
