    lovely, thank you for posting this one. I have a fondness for paintings of women reading - perhaps since I do it so much myself - and even found a calendar of "lesende Frauen" in Berlin! Which sadly doesn't include this nice one.

    This was new to me too and I love her reading with that glorious hat!
