Because when you start searching for images online, you might come to that conclusion. The fairly narrow theme of this post was non-contemporary paintings of siblings; I didn't want photographs this time, and I didn't want parents or others included in the work. Still, I easily found a lot to choose from. But it soon became obvious that they were all adorable white children, only white children. So I got more specific in my search. Maybe my search technique is poor, but I found next to nothing; I found plenty of photographs and contemporary portraits of non-white siblings, but no paintings. I'm sure there are reasons for this, historic, economic and societal; who, where, and when have parents gone to the trouble - and expense - of having their children "immortalized" in a painted portrait? At any rate, the gathering of images to meet my criteria was rather frustrating. All this to say that I apologize for the lack of diversity in this group. Kleines Mädchen zeigt dem Geschwisterchen eine Schildkröte, by Thomas "Tom" von Dreger, 1898 or 1906. I couldn't find a better/larger image, but had to include it anyway.

El retrato de María Amalia de Aguirre y Acedo no responde ya al espíritu dieciochesco de algunos retratos femeninos de Goya, sino a una cierta concepción romántica del retrato. El pintor ha situado a su joven modelo en un jardín umbrío con un cielo grisáceo sobre el que destaca la niña iluminada con una luz pálida y fría. "Nos encontramos ante uno de los bellos retratos de Goya y admiramos especialmente los blancos del vestido de la niña, que son de una increíble calidad". Este fue uno de los comentarios que apareció en la revista Les Arts (1909) cuando el cuadro fue dado a conocer por primera vez en París.
