This first is a rather nice self portrait, I think, by the French Academic painter, sculptor & history painter, Paul Delaroche, 1797 - 1856.

Followed by the portrait of Henrietta Sontag, also by Delaroche.

Next is a self portrait by Alphonse Maria Mucha, 17x11, 1907. I don't think I understand where he was going with this. I like the execution but can't explain the lower half all that well. Maybe he's sitting in a chair - in an odd way.
