I am so excited that I actually have this hanging in my house! My mom originally took a picture of Emily and I posed as the subjects of Mary Cassatt's "La Toilette." You can see the original "La Toilette" below my mom's personal version. I love it! I think it is so cool that I have this wonderful oil painting hanging in my house and it is something my mom painted of Emily and I!!
