I really enjoy in my down time doing these smaller 11 x 14, oil studies of Bouguereau. I have found just the difference in how he handled his skin tones to be so remarkably different and a wonderful lesson in value. I have also come to the conclusion that it's just about impossible to reproduce the innocence of a Bouguereau.
This is the second, in addition to the one I posted under techniques/scumbling.
I must admit, I really hate to see mine by the original, even though my art reproduction photography skills are not going to displace any pro photographers any day soon.
