Who's the Fairest of them All?

 

I bought a signed print of Carl Lundgren's "Naked Clown" several years ago, and it has had pride of place on one of my walls ever since.  I can never look at it without smiling.

Today, I saw Velazquez's "THe Rokeby Venus" (okay, a print of it) on a friend's wall and couldn't help notice the resemblance.

I like the Lundgren better.
