Neither. I’m really pleased that we (you) have figured out the subject, but I’m slightly disappointed that it is a reproduction of another painting. I had been more interested in it when I thought it was a characterful original of an unknown Mr David. Still, I feel like we’ve done some good in the world today.

Best wishes
