[anon submission]

I don’t know anything about this painting other than that it was almost certainly removed from either a Czech castle or a palace in Prague. It’s hanging in an office in one of the places I work (a quango that administers a number of State-owned properties). I snapped this pic surreptitiously, as I’m not certain how lawful the “loan” of the many valuable paintings on these office walls are.

Oh, wow, secret office baroque painting submission!!! Not only is its provenance super mysterious (and questionably legal), the subject is really interesting, too. I’m tickled pink to add it to my collection, and who knows. Someday we might even find out more about it <3
