A husband has perfectly summed up his marriage (and every marriage) in a portrait for his wife., and we love it. 

 

The wife of the artist shared the painting on imgur, and said that she asked her husband, James Needham, if he realised that "he has never actually painted us both in the same painting."

 

In response to this, James, who is an English artist living in Australia, painted an image that has resonated with married couples everywhere.

 

In the image, James can be seen sitting on the toilet speaking to his wife as she brushes her teeth.

 

I ask my husband if he realises he has never actually painted us both in the same painting...

 

The painting has been viewed over 800,000 times on the site, with one user saying the "beautiful" painting "should be titled marriage," - we agree.

 

Another user said: "I think that's the most sincere representation of love there is. No rose tainted unrealistic fantasy."

 

James has since shared the image on his Instagram page saying: "I've been getting a huge amount of love for this picture (behind the whippet) today thanks to the craziness of the internet."

 

For anyone after a print, he says they can visit his website.

 

We seriously love this painting!
