Public domain art of the day: "Girl Reading on a Divan" by Isaac Israëls (ca. 1920)

Exactly how I plan to spend my weekend: unwinding and relaxing with a good book after a stressful day of work today.

I’m a writer and an editor. I love art, literature, music, and to drink good coffee. I practice Ashtanga yoga. I’m here to connect and learn. 

Enjoy it!

When I woke up this morning I had the thought: "OMG. Finally I have a whole day with nothing urgent or stressful to handle. I can actually just spend the day exactly as I wish."

Glorious.

That’s a great plan. I’m also planning to recharge these days. 💛

Sounds like a calendar I'd appreciate! 

One of the folders in my public domain art collection is called "Women of Leisure." Each piece features women in various states of repose.  

Maybe I'll make a mood board specifically with a "women reading" theme too. Thanks for the idea.

I actually have a wall calendar and each month is a painting of a woman reading. 

But this one isn't in there so thanks for sharing :)) Love it
