That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for August 30, 2013

Sweetie, you don’t need them, you look great au naturel.

You can tell the implants. She moves and they don’t !

Actually, this a picture of Marianne {the French symbol of Liberty} washing rags to make revolutionary flags such as the old hag {right} is holding. Vive La France!!!

Ha ha, wow, there is something extra funny about this being ‘’oil on wood’’ too.

The old lady on R’s distaff sure looks sharp…she uses it to keep the girls in line!

@lisapaloma13 from yesterday:I posted basically the same there; if you already read it (it’s been deleted there), I apologize for the repeat; but please reply; so I know you saw this.I’ve been commenting every day that has a new strip. I even posted the painting you mentioned and left another painting searching tip in comments a few days ago. The painting resulted in a couple replies, so I think at least some are seeing my posts.I was quarantined back in February, 2012; so having someone say they “miss me”, when I’ve been commenting all along, can be quite troubling. I spent quite a bit of time, making sure I hadn’t been quarantined again (GoComics doesn’t tell you if they do it), even asked another contributor (thanks @Dogsniff!) if he could see my comment.Maybe you only look at the strip once per day, and don’t return. I usually try to post my comment for the day by 9AM US Central Time. I don’t see the painting until I see the strip, and it takes me some time to research what’s in my comment. If you want to see my comment, I suggest you read the strip after 10 AM. If it isn’t there; try again later.

pointing and laughing during the master’s bath has its drawbacks

Cotton candy here…get your cotton candy!

Click-to-enlarge image can be found here, or at Mr. Melcher’s blog entry.The Washerwomen is shown with a different coloration image by the current-location’s online Catalogue (no description, so telling you how to find the image, isn’t worth it).Another different coloration image can be found here (Google translated for description). Ten years later, he painted this, under the same title, for the Zoppola Castle.A painting by the artist’s son was featured in an earlier strip. The artist’s Wikipedia page (Google translated Italian Wikipedia page has more) and collection (more under Subcategories).So far, 3 works, by this artist, have appeared in Mr. Melcher’s blog.

@mabrndtI also read and see your comments about the paintings most days: it’s 7:47 am PDT and your post is up. Thanks so much for providing us with actual context for the paintings we see here in joke fashion every day.

thank you, lessa49002. It’s all in fun and to see if anyone catches the symbolism.

THIS IS JOE, THE GERMAN MAJOR WITH WHOM YOU’VE CONVERSED IN THE PAST. If you ever need endorsement, I and countless others will be glad to provide it. It’s the least we can do, you’ve made this a far better strip than it was on its own! Thanks yet again!

These ladies are the beneficiaries of a profession that develops incredible forearms, and pretty good “pecs”, too.

My deepest condolences @Number Six. (Devoted son of Peter Matthews. Sept 11th, 1932 – Aug 30th, 2013.).If @Number Three is your sister, please extend them to her as well.

See his comment that starts with Three hours ago here (don’t pay attention to the strip date, it was posted 8/30/13), and comments that follow it.Because of it, he changed his ID to include all the block letters in my comment. I chose to just use his normal ID in the link because I thought more would recognize it.Because it is late here, maybe I’ll repost it with the next strip; but if someone wants to post it before me there, I won’t be offended.

As I understand it Numbers 3 & 6 are not related.
