A 17th century, European painter (name unknown), who worked in Italy, painted the poor, dressed in their old, worn denim, with the same dignity and honor as a court painter would have bestowed upon a rich patron. The paintings respect the character and one can't help but look beyond the misfortune and be inspired by the denim, and how it adapted so practically.
The paintings are currently on exhibition at the Didier Aaron in New York until February 14th.

I LOVE IT!!!! What a fabulous vase of flowers, love that idea.....and esp like that the seams can be seen amongst it too. No idea why, tho the seams are part of the process of denim taking shape so maybe its that........Id have that on my wall any day..
