    You have an interesting site!
    May I suggest four painters that are missing in your stunning collection:
    1) Vilma Vrobova-Kotrbovan, a Czech artist born 1905. She painted mainly children, and is sadly nowhere to be found online.
    2) Paula Modersohn-Becker, a German painter (1876-1907), whose child portraits are essential to know.
    3) Pia Ranslet, a Danish artist born in 1956, who uses children in most of her art and is also a portrait painter.
    4) Ernst Josephson, a Swedish painter (1851-1906), who has a wonderful painting called “Boy with a Wheelbarrow”.

    If you need any photographs of the paintings of the three female artists, I would gladly send them to you.

      Thank you very much! …I posted more or less 1300 artists up till now, but I know a lot of great painters are still missing…Thanks to your suggestion, I’ll try to do something about it as soon as possible.

      I know Ruth Sanderson’s works and I appreciate her. I’ll try to post a selection of her illustrations on Christmas day. Thanks.

    Thanks for linking my website. Can you please change site name to proper: “Moi chłopcy” not “t” but “ł”. Thanks :)

      Voilà. Sorry for my mistake (there is no “ł” on my keyboard. I had to copy and paste :) )…Thanks.

    This blog is more than beautiful. I have discovered many wonderful artists I had never seen before. All this work deserves to be acknowledged. Thanks a lot.

    Hi!

    Thank you so much for your beautiful site! Like everyone else, I am discovering some wonderful artists that I didn’t know existed. To do this amount of work is a true labor of love.

    I have a tiny suggestion if it works for you, too. Would you consider collapsing the list of painters under the first letter of their last name, i.e. all the A’s under A, etc. It would reduce the amount of scrolling substantially.

    Thank you again, and, for selfish reasons, I hope you can keep this work up for a long time.

      Kathleen,
      thank you for your kind words. I don’t like this infinite scrolling too, but on this platform I’m not technically able to do better.

        Hi, Marco,

        Thank you so much for answering me so quickly! It’s not a problem at all that this is something that you couldn’t do; it was just a thought.

        I actually did respond to you earlier, but it’s not showing up, so, I don’t know if you received it.

        I’d like to recommend an addition to your artists. I’ll be happy to forward the information to you.

        Thanks again. Take good care.

    Dear Marco,

    Thank you so much for responding so quickly! Not a problem; just a thought. There are plenty of things that I would like to do on the computer, but they just don’t work.

    I have one addition for you if you’re interested. He was a brilliant English illustrator named Aubrey Beardsly, however, he rarely depicted children. I did find a few examples that you might consider:

    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/a-large-christmas-card-1895
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/advertisement-for-children-s-books-1894
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/child
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/merlin-taketh-the-child-arthur-into-his-keeping
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/no-2
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/no-3
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/no-7
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/puck-on-pegasus
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/the-battle-of-the-beaux-and-the-belles-1896
    http://www.wikipaintings.org/en/aubrey-beardsley/the-slippers-of-cinderella-1894

    A good portion of his work was meant to shock Victorian England, which it did, which would make it completely inappropriate. He renounced that area of his work after he converted to Catholicism and before his death. He died at 25.

    It was lovely of you to answer so quickly. Thank you again.

    Take good care.

    Kathleen

      Kathleen,

      WordPress automatic system wrongly placed this comment among the spam (the blog is daily flooded with dozens of spam), but I recovered it.

      I know Beardsly’s work. I’ll try to post it as soon as possible. Thanks.

    Thanks! Please use your own judgment about Beardsley. I just got an email that you received my original reply! Technology isn’t perfect!

    Thank you again. I’m still working my way through your remarkable blog.
