Nothing in that article suggests anything political about the painting except for the fact that she was a duchess and not just any duchess but the widow Isabella of Aragon

And why do you think someone would paint a portrait of someone in the nobility instead of a working person? Socioeconomics are part of politics, you know.

billbodabbinz.bsky.social•155 days ago

Where have been plenty of portraits made of the average working person and person

zaccarman04.bsky.social•155 days ago

Yes, and portraying working class people in the context in which they exist is also politcal. Almost like my original point of there being no non-political art is correct or something.

See now u bring up context so that blows you no non-politcal statement up. If the its made to be political then yes it is then political, but if it's just a portrait like I said 1 of me and 1 of kamala we both just felt we really looked good so we both got portraits done to capture it.

Then it's on you how you look at them either objectively or subjectively.

billbodabbinz.bsky.social•155 days ago

Its a portrait just like if I had someone paint a picture of me there's no way it could be political at all unless I had something put in there that made it political. Not like I'd have someone paint a portrate of me im ugly af😂

Any portrait of a politician is inherently political. Once again your ignorance is the issue here.

billbodabbinz.bsky.social•155 days ago

If kamala harris wanted to have a portrayed done because she thought she looked really good that day no political atire just she felt really good and wanted to capture it. I wouldn't consider that political.

zaccarman04.bsky.social•155 days ago

Your consideration is irrelevant since it is so consistently uninformed.

billbodabbinz.bsky.social•155 days ago

I'm quite informed I keep up with everything going on in the world.

No you’re not, and no you don’t.
