Pride and Prejudice

Ink and watercolors Van Gogh. Size... A5, I suppose.
This week I read again "Pride and Prejudice" I love Darcy/Lizzy scenes, especially this one (Chapter 31):

"‘You mean to frighten me, Mr. Darcy, by coming in all
this state to hear me? I will not be alarmed though your
sister DOES play so well. There is a stubbornness about
me that never can bear to be frightened at the will of
others. My courage always rises at every attempt to
intimidate me.’

‘I shall not say you are mistaken,’ he replied, ‘because
you could not really believe me to entertain any design of
alarming you; and I have had the pleasure of your
acquaintance long enough to know that you find great 
enjoyment in occasionally professing opinions which in
fact are not your own.’

Elizabeth laughed heartily at this picture of herself, and
said to Colonel Fitzwilliam, ‘Your cousin will give you a
very pretty notion of me, and teach you not to believe a
word I say. I am particularly unlucky in meeting with a
person so able to expose my real character, in a part of the
world where I had hoped to pass myself off with some
degree of credit. Indeed, Mr. Darcy, it is very ungenerous
in you to mention all that you knew to my disadvantage in
Hertfordshire—and, give me leave to say, very impolitic
too—for it is provoking me to retaliate, and such things
may come out as will shock your relations to hear.’

‘I am not afraid of you,’ said he, smilingly. "

Why handsome men are so difficult to draw?!


Tusz i akwarele Van Gogh. Rozmiar... A5, tak myślę.
W tym tygodniu znowu przeczytałam "Dumę i uprzedzenie" Uwielbiam sceny Darcy/Lizzy, szczególnie rozmowę w Rozdziale 31.

Dlaczego przystojni mężczyźni są tak trudni do rysowania?!
