  1. The Cotillion by Christy looks as if they are in the Palladian lounge aboard the RMS Aquitania.
    The gerberas by Dayan, the pensees by Bonvin, the violettes et fraises of Benoit and the hollyhocks of La Farge, one could smell the fleurs and eat the fraises, so beautifully rendered.
    Image 5 - a joyous manhood, men hold and protect what is most dear to them! As image 5 hides his manhood, images 14 & 52 are nonchalant about theirs. Image 21- real cowboys, so they think! Image 23 - Matisse and his goldfish, who hasn't had an aquarium of some kind. - Rj/IE
