I searched for Painting Lilacs in Google images. There was a poor reproduction on page 20, but it referenced Mary Cassat. Wikipedia gave the name of the painting and a Google search on Mary Cassat Lilacs in a Window found the Metropolitan Museum of Art website.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />Mark<br />Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04006953027350082391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20645140.post-55994651187960073892013-06-01T21:57:27.309+00:002013-06-01T21:57:27.309+00:00Artist..
