[quote=Anonymous]Keep it and cherish it, OP. I have a large oil painting hanging in my house of a great uncle who was killed near the end of WWI. He was barely out of his teens, so no direct family to pass it down to. He’s in his uniform (it was painted from a black and white photo reference) and looks resolute, but wistful, somehow. I love the painting, especially since there is a strong resemblance, both to myself and my young adult children, even though it’s been over a hundred years since his death. Hopefully one of them will want it someday. I will say his gaze is off to the side, looking into the distance. If he was looking directly at me, that might be slightly unsettling.[/quote]
