Painted by Peter Paul Rubens. This is from the Norton Simon Foundation in Pasadena. Anne of Austria is here in her mid-twenties, and this is pretty much what she would have looked like during the period of The Three Musketeers.

When I was conducting human experiments with marihuana in Boston in 1968, a Federal Narcotics Bureau agent told me that no matter how my experiments came out, he would remain convinced that “marihuana makes people aggressive and violent.”… He had one piece of evidence dating from the early 1950s, when he had been seized by a curiosity to watch people smoke the drug… Accordingly, he had disguised himself as a beatnik and made his way to a Greenwich Village tea party. When he revealed himself as a Narcotics Bureau agent, “everyone there became aggressive and violent.” — Andrew Weil
