alexecinz:The Portrait of Madame U (GW, Lady Une)A little homage to John Singer Sargent’s era-defining and notorious “Portrait of Madame X” featuring Lady Une. I’ve had the itch to doodle something harking to the Edwardian period for awhile, but was finally motivated by a fun conversation on historical AU initiated by @gwepisode50 .You can find the finished colour version on the original discussion thread. Nevertheless am posting these prep sketches since I enjoyed the process so much - even the part where I got charcoal all over my scanner (¬‿¬);;Apologies to John Singer Sargent, who is one of my favourite artists. Notwithstanding the fact that my first encounter with his work was a crumpled poster in a sandwich bar. -- source link
