Well done, Bruce! but unlike Attila, I like the textured background which , to me, better suits the whole look - the wall in the original
has texture.

I prefer the first image, very good recreation of the original with a

When art model Eugenya offered to do a creative shoot, I was struck by
the similarity of her profile to that of Mme. Gautreau, the subject of
John Singer Sargent's 1884 oil painting, Portrait of Madame X [1]. She
agreed to work on a "recreation" idea that I'd had bubbling on a
back-burner for about two years.

Note: four of the images in this series are rather NSFW, but the index
images are all too small to be a problem, so this page is safe to open
