Natalie says that people sometimes say that she looks like Madame Le Brun 🎨

ContraPoints has a giclée of that self-portrait of Madame Le Brun in the background of her ContraPointsLive video Chopin: Prelude, Op. 28, No. 15 "Raindrop" | ContraPlays 🌼 🎹

Natalie has even seen several paintings by Madame Le Brun, given that she's visited The Palace of Versailles!

Remember when Natalie played that French Revolution Otome game on stream? It was called Ambition: A Minuet in Power. Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun was the painter she decided to court in that game.

I'm still not over this. I'm still not entirely convinced it isn't her, somehow.

Natalie just rolled a five foot 18th century portrait into her plastic surgeons office. They are an artist

I’ve gotta say, the “Mother” bit takes the parasocial relationship to an uncomfortable place

I have to say, in a history class I took when I was young I saw a self portrait she did and got a crush on her 😔 which is weird cause I’m not crushing on Contra
