Apollo and Venus and Susie by The See


Recently rediscovered in Des Moines, USA, and now restored, is Apollo and Venus (c.1600) by 
Otto van Veen, the teacher of Rubens.



Also recently found, this one in Australia, c.1900, 
Venus and Susie at The See, Apollo Bay.


                                                         
It is thought to be painted 'after Whistler' by one of the Heidelberg School artists, a playful Antipodean response to the 1897 Bliss SandsCo publication Venus & Apollo in Painting and Sculpture by William Stillman.
