“Mermaid (A Fair Catch)” The Saturday Evening Post, August 20, 1955 Cover by Norman Rockwell

During my childhood we always went to this one restaurant, and they had this painting up at a corner booth. I would always hope and pray we got seated near so I could admire it while sipping sipping my chocolate milk.

This dress was originally designed by Joan Bergin for Annabelle Wallis’ portrayal of Jane Seymour in the 2009 season of 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑻𝒖𝒅𝒐𝒓𝒔, in the episode entitled 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑵𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒏 𝑼𝒑𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈. The gown was used again, but this time as a prop on a dress rack inside a dress shop in the 2022 film 𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒅. Blink and you’ll miss it! Who was the super sleuth who managed to find this reuse?

La Source

Artist: Charles-Joseph Natoire (French, 1700–1777)

Date: 1736

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Private Collection

Description

‘La Source’ depicts a languorous but smiling water nymph who pours water from a clay urn into a huge seashell that rests on an embankment. Below the shell, two putti play on the back of a dolphin; another putto mischievously pulls away the nymph’s filmy drapery to reveal her nudity. Behind her, a muscular triton sounds his conch shell as a second, blonde nymph looks on. Looming reeds enclose a watery and verdant landscape setting. The painting is signed ‘C. NATOIRE’ and dated ‘1736’.
