"This is a celebration. I've just bought The Girl in Blue."
"Who's she?"
"She is a miniature by Gainesborough. She is wearing a blue dress, so the late Gainesborough, hunting around for a title, called her The Girl in Blue."
"Very clever of him. Think like lightning, these artists."
(from The Girl in Blue, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse)
