re: #4... something about the history of painting cthulu2016 Jan 2013 #40
I think it is typical of this era. For instance, you can see windows reflected in the glass vase. CTyankee Jan 2013 #45
You mean the era of the painting? cthulu2016 Jan 2013 #53
Yep, "crude reflection" indeed. We think we see that when we actually don't... CTyankee Jan 2013 #56

#4: Hans Holbein the Younger - The Merchant Georg Gisze. nt pinboy3niner Jan 2013 #59
