Painting # 5

"The Love Letter " by Henry le Jeune

Coming from a family of talented people.....Henry  Le Jeune's father and grandfather were professional musicians, and his brothers organists at various chapels. His sister, a musician, became a photographer. Henry too had musical talents but he chose to pursue his passion in painting.

A British Painter -  entered the Royal academy of arts at 15 years of age and was associated with it all his life

 "The Love Letter" ,an oil on canvas , is 145 years old.

Interestingly a famous Indian Painter Gopal Khetanchi has rendered a beautiful Indian version for us.

Whatever part of the world it is, whatever clothes we may wear, Language of Love is the same all over :)

May Life Bless you with many dear ones to love and cherish but as they say "The first one in that list should be "YOU" yourself....If we love ourselves it becomes easy to love others...
Because in the end "Its only about how much LOVE we put in " 
(my post dated 4 December 2016) 
So in continuation of this sentiment..let us begin with..
A Letter to Myself ...

Lots of Love ....
