The Artist's Studio

I visited today the exhibition The Artist's Studio (curated by Giles Waterfield) at one of my favourite local galleries, Compton Verney, which is a wonderful country house with Capability Brown gardens, turned into a museum by the philanthropist Peter Moores. It started me thinking about how many depictions of artists' studios I have, so I thought - given my recent silence - I should quickly post a few images of the artist's studio as Bohemian hideout. Here they are:


Henri Boutet (1851-1919)
L'Atelier d'Ulysse
Etching with aquatint, 1913


Louis Legrand (1863-1951)
À l'Atelier
Etching, 1885


Paul-Maurice Vigoureux (1876-?)
Artist's studio
Etching, 1925

I apologize if there are any weird mistakes in this post - everything about Blogger, which I felt quite comfortable with, seems to have changed without warning, and I feel I am blundering around without a clue what I'm doing.
