Beautiful breastfeeding art

post #1 of 13
Thread Starter 
The other day, I was looking for an artist whose paintings I had on my wall as a child. I finally found her -- her name is Sulamith Wulfing, apparently -- and I found a lot of other gorgeous works by her. This one is my favorite, though!

This is beautiful! Is the artist still alive (given the fact that you had on of her works on your bedroom wall as a child)?

According to Wikipedia, she died in 1989.

It took me YEARS to find her! My mom couldn't remember her name ... I think I finally stumbled across her online by sheer dumb luck.

She has some other beautiful ones with mothers and children, too:

This is simply stunning. I keep bugging DP about putting up some maternal/breastfeeding art in our room. I might just purchase this one!

Thanks so much for sharing!!! :

You know what's neat about this one? The baby is obviously older. I just LOVE that!!!

If this link works, this is the painting (well, a poster of it) that my BF got me when he was in Spain. This was before our baby was born, and my BF always looked at it fondly while we were waiting for him to arrive and say, "Thats going to be you.." I love it!

A friend of mine painted this on silk for me. She said I inspired her.
