Woah, I really like this.
I bet it would’ve been pretty controversial to have hanging in your house

Ralli was a Greek painter who lived mostly in France and Egypt. It would still have been controversial (I think), but I wonder how much more open France and Egypt were at the time than the rest of Europe/the new world
Edit: to be clear, not arguing that it’d have been controversial, just wondering if it would have been less so to a French/Egyptian audience.
