Cashmere

 (click to enlarge)
John Singer Sargent
(American, 1856-1925)
Cashmere, 1908
Oil on canvas

I think this painting is very intriguing! Who are these girls? Where are they? Where are they going? Why? Are you curious at all about this painting? Here's one cool thing about it: they're all the same girl! They're all Sargent's niece in an exotic cashmere shawl.
