| Portrait of men wearing wigs by Nicolas de Largillière, 17th century |
That wigs had been featured in my previous post was an intentional prompt of the inner twin world for us to investigate further. With that, I ventured to the wig wikipedia page, at the bottom of which I found the above painting. Note from the artists wiki page:
Nicolas de Largillière (10 October 1656 – 20 March 1746)
The anniversary of his death is TODAY, and so an addition to the “Timely” pattern cluster. On investigating his wiki page, the subject of one of his paintings stood out given her date of death also being TODAY!!
Anne Geneviève de Lévis (February 1673 – 20 March 1727)
Another notable person mentioned on Largilliere’s wiki page stands out due to his birthday:
François Chereau (20 March 1680 – 16 April 1729)
| Self-portrait of Nicolas de Largillierre. Engraving by François Chereau(1715). |
So that’s three March 20th in a single sitting— a “March 20(x3)” pattern cluster. Not to mention again, that TODAY is March 20th, so three additions to the “Timely” pattern cluster.
Other notable persons mentioned on Largilliere’s wiki page who stand out:
- Louis, Duke of Brittany (8 January 1707 – 8 March 1712)
- Guillaume Coustou the Elder (29 November 1677 – 22 February 1746)
- Mariana Victoria of Spain (31 March 1718 – 15 January 1781)
We now have another addition to the “Targeting Family Birthdays” pattern cluster , and the now expanded “February 22(x3)” pattern cluster. Something about the name Sid Abel… move the letters around and you get “dis able” … and “dis label”, … audd, as I was driving my daughter and grand kids today (my daughter was doing work on the computer, and asked me how to spell “label”… another addition to the “Timely” pattern cluster.
On investigating further and due to the recent “First and Last 2 Letters in Name Makes a Word” pattern cluster, I checked the etymology of “lare”, and came to:
- lore (n.) "learning”, … Old Frisian lare
