03- Janice Kim: Vigee-Le Brun's Self Portrait in a Straw Hat


For me, art is something that can be interpreted in many different ways depending on the viewer's age, sex, emotional state, etc. When I saw this painting I was in a very self-doubting and insecure state, so the artist's confident depiction of herself was strikingly beautiful. I somehow felt as if she was challenging me! :)
