Eleanor was right. She never looked nice. She looked
like art, and art wasn't supposed to look nice; it was
supposed to make you feel something.

- - - - -The other night Kirk sent me a piece of art via text. No comment, just a piece of art. It was an image of a woman holding a child. I wrote back and asked if it was O'Brien from Downton Abbey holding baby Herbert Hoover. Kirk wrote back and agreed that is what it looked like.
Well, then I decided I wanted to see what it actually was. I did some research and found out that it was "Mrs. Cephas Smith with Child" by William Jennys (1803). I could post a copy of the artwork here, but I'm not going to. You need to take a little initiative and look it up. I took initiative to figure out what the painting was. Seriously, I've done the hard part for you. And seriously, it looks like O'Brien holding a baby Herbert Hoover.
