Princess Henriette of France.

Princess Adelaide of France.

Princess Louise-Elizabeth of France.

Princess Victoire of France.

These four women were painted by Jean-Marc Nattier (1685-1766) in Paris.

This portrait of Auguste-Gabriel Godefroy was painted by Jean-Baptiste-Simeon Chardin (1699-1779) circa 1741. A version of this painting is in the Louvre.

If you were a kid in the 1700s it’s unlikely that you would have your portrait painted unless, of course, you were the the Duke of Berry and the Count of Provence. Mom and Dad most likely paid some major bucks for this work of art. These children were painted by Francois-Hubert Drouais (1727-1775) of Paris.

Vintage Thanksgiving Turkey Ride

Turkeys may be stupid but they’re probably not easy to catch much less take for a ride. The Victorians were certainly imaginative!
