People Reading in Bed

Following up on my Tribe of Readers post; inspired by a round-up of people reading, depicted in art: o silêncio dos livros , via Art Sparker via Cláudia (thanks!).

Most of these aren't exactly real life, but I still like them.

Bed and Board (Domicile Conjugal, 1970), Jean-Pierre Léaud) and Claude Jade

Tomb of Eleanor of Aquitaine (and husband Henry II), 1204--Good News, indeed: we get to read when we're dead.

Lee Miller and Tanja Ramm, by Theodore Miller

Scenes From a Marriage (1973), Liv Ullmann and Erland Josephson

William Shatner. OK, he's not in bed, and it seems he's studying his script so that's work, not pleasure; but anyway, he's on his back.

Me! This past winter.
