I agree that this is a lovely painting, but it functions only as a reproduction of another artists work -- and nothing more. If the content is incongruous, it is because of the artist's own perspective, not because of the photograph. When shooting other artists work, you can make them work as expression by adding another layer of interpretation to it, such as I tried to do in my photo of Rembrandt's Night Watch:http://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/45567003 and in my image of the portrait of Rembrandt athttp://www.pbase.com/pnd1/image/45567002
