    You’ve prompted me to look at a bunch of works by Boccioni, whom I knew only a little. He was very talented. What a shame he died so young.

      I am always sad to learn that a talented artist has died young. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Steve.

    I’ve returned to this one a few times; it’s such a sensual group portrait. It’s also easy to imagine an Edwardian-era cabinet card of the same three women in this pose.
