This painting has an amazing story. Tamara de Lemp This painting has an amazing story. Tamara de Lempicka was summoned to the US for the first time in 1929 to paint this portrait of 19 year old Joan Bush (her maiden name was Joan Jeffrey). Mr. Rufus Bush was a wealthy American and the couple had just married. After her divorce three years later she put the painting in a storage and forgot about it. Sixty years later, her daughter was surprised to discover, while reading Tamara de Lempicka's biography (written by Tamara's daughter Kizette) that her mother was involved. Out of curiosity the daughter went down to an old storehouse that her family had and came upon this portrait. She writes in a letter to Kizette: "There it was, like new, in perfect condition, unmoved over the past sixty years! It was a moving experience, like opening a time capsule.” It was sold in 2004 and it’s speculated that Madonna could be the buyer. ————————————————— #repost @daily_paintings ・・・ ​Tamara de Lempicka, Poland ​(1898-1989) ​ Portrait of Mrs. Bush (1929) ​ ​ ​​#TamaraDeLempicka #DeLempicka #painting#paintings #oilpainting#oilpaintings#instaart #art#artoftheday#artofinstagram #dailyart#arte #kunst#konst #artdeco#creative#inspiration #artist #artwork#museum#art_deco #portrait#arthistory#arthistorynerd #paint#artdaily#artoninstagram #instagramart#artagram

Testimonials

"Innovation comes from the ability to correlate information between different realms of knowledge."

Wonderful.

Vishal Mathad
This post is totally insane (in the good sense). I was waiting for someone to point these things out and you did perfectly. Keep going with the good job.

I would love to give your thoughts about planning when as a coupe (spouses). Thanks.

José Romero
Alberto. Thank you for sharing.

You are a good person. I learned a lot from you. Thank you…

Kenneth Ty
A simply great explanation

Thank you.

Busdrago Fumagalli
Wow! *claps* What an article!

Full of no-BS actionable advice! Thank you!

Mattis Rogers
OMG, I feel lucky when seeing this answer.

You made me smarter just by reading this post. Thank you very very much!

Nghi Nguyen
This is by far one of the best posts that I have read on Quora.

LITERALLY every point you made is something that I have internally told myself to do, however, this is the first time I’m seeing my thoughts fully fleshed out in a coherent manner on paper (screen). Thank you.

Adrien Bossogo-Egoume
Very thought provoking.

I like the one about not neglecting the people who really care for you…parents and grandparents.

Paul Vincent
This is an absolute beauty.

Very practical and achievable. I Would love to hear a lot from you. Keep sharing the good thoughts. Thank you. 🙂

Pritam Saha
Wow. Could not of said it better myself! You have extracted all the information in my brain and put it wonderfully in an organized summary. Great work.

Hope all the upvoters print this out and refer to it instead of just like and move on. I will be referring to this again for reference on a couple of things I am failing to do. Thank you so much!
