Held by The Art Institute of Chicago and released as Public domain (Art Institute of Chicago, CC0). It is here to paint after: give us your own line and the painters take its brushwork, its palette and its light, and none of its subject.
A print of the painting itself, up to 20 × 30 inches. Nothing larger, because it would arrive soft.
- Painting after it
- The painters take its handling, its surface and its light. Your line, or your photograph, stays the subject.
