An antique handpainted demitasse porcelain cup and saucer. It is trimmed in gold at the edges and painted with tiny blue flowers. It's beautiful. Wealthy and upper middle class / upperclass ladies used to handpaint entire sets of China in the 1920's. It was a status symbol and showed off one's painting abilities. I'm sure it was also meant to highlight that they were ladies of leisure and did not have to work or do housework.

Not that I am familiar with that at all. I am always absolutely riveted by whatever it is you are saying to me. Honest!
A painting of a Regency era woman in a pink satin gown. She is sitting at a small table with a quill in her right hand and papers under her left elbow, which is resting on the table. Her index finger is pressed over her eyebrow as she listens to someone speaking. She looks politely disinterested, as if waiting for them to go away. One can practically hear the out of frame speaker's, "Well actually..."

Not too terrible for working on a phone screen with muh finger, but I couldn't match that damn background color, not matter how hard I tried...
An antique wedding invitation from which I removed the original text and replaced with a sale announcement. It will run as a promotional image for the sale next weekend, December 5-7. I would rather use Regency-era merchant adverts, but I don't have enough, so I also grabbed some invitations, because they have a similar motifs. I also used script and serif block fonts similar to those of the period. This one reads: #3DaysOfJane250 Purveyors of vintage: books & journals; artisanal papers & ephemera; stationery & journal supplies; linens, lace & other textiles; tea service, silver & china; needlework & crafting supplies; totes, decor, accessories and more. Inspired by the works of Ms. Jane Austen. December 5-7

Hello, fellow neurospicies.
An image of George Hamilton Barrable's 19th century oil painting, Dolce far niente. It shows a woman in a long pink peignoir reclining on a sofa in a lushly appointed room, a white coverlet thrown over her legs and one hip. She gazes into the distance with an expression of everlasting ennui. The caption below it reads, "My toxic trait is walking up early and lying in bed until I'm running late." It is watermarked @3DaysOfJane.
