      One of the greatest artists that ever lived. Realism, softness, light, detail… it’s all there.

      White beauty unmatched. The highest development.

      Look at Vermeer’s “Young Woman With A Water Jug” then at Picasso’s “Three Musicians”. –

      A consummate master of light and White beauty

    5. Antagonistes Says:

      An intriguing composition of a circle within squares and rectangles that contrast with the sensual “s” curves of the women. In the same way, the hard, dark masculine physique of the satyr contrasts with the soft whiteness of the nymphs.

      The French artist is masterful; I love his well-thought-out compositions.

      The artist was definitly an ASS man. Look how much detail he gives it compaired
      to the other beautiful characters.

    7. Antagonistes Says:

      This is simply a repetition of the circle motif.
