Art tells the truth about mid-life bodies

 


 More models are not shown, but have their feet on the side of this painting. 

As published by FaceBook as follows:

'Myths, tales, and historical records featuring positive depictions of powerful middle-aged female figures are few and far between. There is no herstory relating a sisterhood of midlife goddesses, no codified body of literature to which we can turn for affirmative examples of a profound and potent midlife. Real life role models are sparse, as well, although there certainly have always been, in every era and society, remarkable exceptions—powerful middle-aged women who were rulers, adventurers, artists, entrepreneurs, scientists, spiritual leaders—mature, glamorous, and courageous sheroes of all stripes.'' -Donna Henes, The Queen of My Self: Stepping into Sovereignty in Midlife
