For US artist Alex Katz, his wife Ada is not only the love of his life, but the inspiration for more than 200 of his paintings. The 89-year-old painter has produced many portraits of his wife over 60 years.

Alex Katz and Ada Del Moro met for the first time in 1957 at a party and soon fell in love. It was not long either before Ada became Katz's favourite subject to paint.
