Dark boys - three tenebrous portraits

 
Portrait de jeune homme à col ouvert, portrait of Eugène Delacroix, by Théodore Géricault, circa 1816-17. *
Ragazzo con gli orecchini, by Juana Romani, circa 1890.
Reynold Arnould, by Jacques-Émile Blanche, 1933. The young artist Arnould was fourteen at the time of this portrait.

*

* Long attributed to Géricault, recent scholarship tends to reattribute it to Delacroix as a youthful self-portrait.
