The Hinds by Anders Zorn


Anders Zorn (1860-1920) The Hinds (1908)


Here is one of Swedish painter Anders Zorn's lovely al fresco nudes. Zorn, a notorious womaniser, would sail the coast of Sweden in the summer with a 'crew' of models who he would get to pose by the water and in the woods along the rocky shore.   This seems like a good way to spend the summer to me, as long as you don't have to eat pickled herring. Prawn cocktail, yes. Herring, no.
