I love reading and I love art.
People reading have been the subjects of many famous paintings.Reading when travelling,with children,in the bathroom, or my favourite place which is in bed.
We read to learn,for the pleasure of a good book,letters from loved ones, to catch up on the news or to find comfort from old favourites like The Bible.
These are some of the reading paintings that I like best.
I wonder where you dear reader are reading this.
