I got them for her at a store called Chadwicks of London. I Thought lingerie was all the rage over there...

I'm a sucker for a Parrish any day. And I had the good fortune to have a friend a few years back who collected originals -- don't let the glossy notecards fool you, as Parrish's stuff isn't always as vibrant-toned as one might think, especially his earlier stuff...

Aye,and watercolor(his studies), fades the quickest.
Are you still in touch with your friend?
There are forensic ways to tell how much luminosity has faded over the years.
If you're old enough to remember ,there was a resurgence of interest in his work in the 70's and Art Nouveau in general, though he lived somewhat after the heydayof Art Nouveau, he,like Waterhouse are still often considered in that genre.
It was fun with so many parameters at my disposal,to try and simulate that special luminosity he achieved,but did you know he was one of the first to really explore how the work could be embellished by the print media ? As you say, the originals are limited by oil pigment.The print media uses other inks for color and can go farther to achieve luminosity.
