The Bellelli Family by Edgar Degas, 1858
It's his aunt's family, painted during a long stay in Florence. The marriage was, by most accounts, a miserable one, and she's dressed in black because she was mourning her own father — that's supposedly him in the little red drawing on the wall behind her.
Erisava: The dad gets painted from behind in his own family portrait. What did he do?
