Oh, what an interesting link. I quite like both. They just say different things about the girl. Isn't it interesting, how we read things, paintings as palimpsests, the idea of authorial intention. I love it.

Anyway, for my contribution, here are some uncovered paintings, from Hereford, late seventeenth century, vernacular art (but possibly more do-able as wall coverings than eerie cupids). I believe they were hidden under white plaster for a fair while, although I could be wrong.



(apologies for awful snapshots - there are no photos of these on the web I could find to link to so you got mine instead)
