One day, enjoying a picnic of strawberries and cream and milk in the Bois de Boulogne, she met the King walking alone, having dismissed his guards. Lightly, she sprang up and ran to him and he, taking her in his arms, gave her a hearty kiss. The watching crowds were in ecstasy. Cries of Vive le Roi and clapping of hands filled the Bois. It was an idyllic moment. - Dorothy Moulton-Mayer, Marie Antoinette: The Tragic Queen

I’ve spent some of my extra time repainting Fragonard’s The Progress of Love series. I’m a sucker for a good love story, especially when it’s in lush gardens like these.

“My dearest Emma, for dearest you will always be, my dearest, most beloved Emma, tell me at once. I cannot make speeches. If I loved you less then I might be able to talk about if more. But you know what I am. I have lectured you, and I have blamed you, and you have borne it as no other woman in England could have borne it. God knows I have been a very indifferent lover, but you understand me, you understand my feelings. Will you marry me?” - EMMA (2020) dir. Autumn de Wilde
