 Because I love Winterhalter's work, but a lot of them don't lend themselves to icons.

 Winterhalter stuff here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Xavier_Winterhalter

 The full portrait of Countess Varvara Alekseyevna Musina-Pushkina

 I think this one (Madame Rimsky-Korsakov) ismy favorite.  If I was going to be a Winterhalter, this is the one I would want to be.

The paintings are very nice, and have a sensnual feeling to them that I find very appealing.

 Because I also love Nora Charles, and her smart mouth.
