A very similar silk dress with lace and fringe and trimmings of silk flowers, to that worn by Tissot's violinist.

There is a short yet very interesting article about the history of this painting on The Victorian Web.

Christmas Eve by J. Hoover & Son (1878)

You see my problem is that whenever i'm bored i begin to procastinate and creat new characters and stories..

SO, these three are my new oc babies, yay! Their names are, from left to right, Vera, Abigail and Herietta! They are just three victorian lady friends who totally aren't involved in any suspicious murders or vampire related activity, those are probably just bad rumors...maybe

Heyo! I suggest cobalt blue and 1870s if that's something you wanna do :D

Sure thing!

Prompt: Send any year before 1960 and a colour to my askbox and I’ll try to paint someone from that time period. (Status: Open)

Disclaimer: Though I do try to research things and look at historical images and portraiture, I do make mistakes and make no promises that what I paint will be entirely historically accurate. 

A character sheet? from me? It's more likely than you think!

My brain has filled with utter rot for her, my love, my sweet murder child. Researching outfits from the 1870s is harder than anticipated so her casual dress and vest are kinda wibbly wobbly; it was very difficult to find what poor people wore because every article I've read about post civil war era clothing focuses on the rich!!!

Pan Comforting Psyche (1857-58) “Marble, 101 x 132 x 67 cm” [Alte Nationalgalerie, Berlin, Germany] -- Reinhold Begas (German; 1831 - 1911)

Deserted by Amor, her lover, Psyche bemoans her curiosity and its consequences. Agitated yet demure, she is comforted by Pan, the otherwise frivolous god of nature. The subject allowed Begas to unite a range of contrasts within one sculpture: female/male, tender/rough, youthful/old.

Reinhold Begas was a German sculptor. He was an apprentice under Christian Daniel Rauch and Ludwig Wilhelm Wichmann. From 1856 to 1858 he travelled around Italy where he was influenced by Arnold Böcklin and Franz Lenbach to move towards a naturalistic style in sculpture. In 1861 he was appointed professor at the Weimar art school before winning the competition to create the statue of Schiller at Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin. From 1870 he was the leading artist working in the plastic arts in the Kingdom of Prussia. His artworks dominated the urban landscape, particularly of Berlin, during the German empire. Several sculptures in Berlin bear testament to his high reputation, such as the Neptune fountain in bronze, originally erected on Schlossplatz, the figure of Alexander von Humboldt in front of the Humboldt-Universität or the statue of Otto von Bismarck in the city’s.
