I particularly love the Frieseke, with his usual amazing handling of lush textures and backgrounds. The figures stand out as smooth and shining against all the filigree foliage and fuss around and behind them. And what a ferocious head of hair! and that little hint of face in the mirror! I would LOVE to see this one in person.<br /><br />The Cleopatra is so moving. So much power and history laid bare and slain by such a small creature. The most famous queen of the ancient world, very human and vulnerable... and I think any man who has loved a woman will be aghast at the asp's placement near all the softest and most feminine, stretched back almost as if in ardor. The crossed legs keep this chaste, but in tension with the open and erotic. Defeated by the same empire that she had previously bedded in the person of Marc Antony... So much here in this simple painting, if you know the story.<br /><br />And I grinned at the last one in this group - so 1920's in fashion and sensibility.Steve Emeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08628329561652344403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512858685634922680.post-19564499136280376702009-09-13T15:41:30.051-04:002009-09-13T15:41:30.051-04:00terrific choices. thank you. i loved them.terrific choices. thank you. i loved them.Sherry Pasquarellohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06107407102753464356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512858685634922680.post-76069072273010465552009-09-13T14:32:55.730-04:002009-09-13T14:32:55.730-04:00Cloudia - you're such a good, floating soul! ...Cloudia - you're such a good, floating soul! :-)<br /><br />Cunning Runt - you? sexualize? Mais,non!!! ;-)<br /><br />Maybe it's a good thing, dear. Now that you are old, you can actually appreciate the art! And by the way, is that why it always took you twice as long to go through the nudes at a gallery when you were my date? ;-)<br /><br />Linda, Magic eye and Dianne - I hope you're listening: I look forward to your comments, always!<br /><br />All the love to All,<br />Pagan SphinxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17296223961815248113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512858685634922680.post-27301475948142816852009-09-13T02:30:50.901-04:002009-09-13T02:30:50.901-04:00gorgeous, all...
