I’ve just discovered my new favorite painter, Vittorio Reggianini – those smarter than myself probably already know of him as an Italian painter from the 1800s who made satin look even satiny-er than satin. I just cannot get over how much he loved painting women who were NOT. HAVING. A. MAN’S. SHIT.

But there was one hottie that everyone seemed to like, and I can’t blame them…

Vittorio knows what the ladies like.

I NEED to know what the darkheared guy did to appear in no less than 6 oilpaintings as the dullest thing ever inflicted on polite women. Have we found the original fedora? Is this The Nice Guy?
