Description
*Tropon andros epideiknunai kai basanizein exousia kai arche pan pathos kinousa kai pasan apokaluptousa kakian.*
(Nothing is better for revealing the real attitude of a man than reckoning the way he behaves when he's got some power or any authourity upon others: cos these two prerogatives are capable to move and suggest any passion and any vice.)
Plutarco's "Parallel Lives", from the comparison between Demostenes and Cicero.

She is wonderfull, absoalotly love the dress and the hair :) its great to have you back Mel :) hugs
Terrific! Hair is great. Details are executed impeccable! But where is ranking? Meli, You shouldn't be so modest!
Since some past troubles, I have decided to put ranking up only every now and again, especially when I will put on paints more than drawnings :) But thanx for the cute thought :) And for the compliments :)
very nice composition, and great pencil variations.
This must be the one you created for replacing Madame DuBarry it isn't? A very valuable reply to that, big stuff. And I do hope you'll let me rank your things soon again sweet one.
Oh, the lovely Meli returns! Fantastic work of art, you bring so much vitality to this place and we are lucky to have you here with us. Your work is above ranking in my opinion, it is ALL excellent.
Too nice Sir ;) And yes Luc, that is my re-post of the DuBarry's world, just more my own way :) I suppose no one can complain this time, since it's my own creation in full, especially the dress :P
very good like it keep it up
Vod said it very much like I think as well.
Sono quasi contenta che hai dovuto togliere l'altra. Il vestito che hai creato come sempre una chicca.
lovely image
Man. You put much of your personality in your work. How beautiful this is, the ornament, the clothing, she. I think the text fits perfectly.
