Excellent
Thank you very much
Quoi ? Moi, dire que c'est un plaisir solitaire ? Jamais de la vie ! Je veux dire que c'est une belle composition, un peu rêveuse...
Ici, on peut tenir la chandelle en tout bien, tout honneur :)
Great work. Get ready to dodge the protester!
Thank you very much
Tu crois que la demoiselle regarde par dessus son épaule? Si c'est le cas, elle a de bons yeux!
la licence poétique donne une bonne acuité visuelle :)
Cool !
Thank you
Lovely artwork Marc.
Thank you very much Gisela
Nicely atmospheric, way above the average picture posted here!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
As always, I enjoyed an introduction to Gerrit Dou. I am becoming much more literate with regard to classical art as a result of following you, my dear. I love the visual joke of the girl in the painting looking over the guard's shoulder as he reads. I think it is a charming idea that her candle illuminates his reading... art often illuminates the world! Thanks for sharing, this one was quite amusing in a warm, affectionate way. =)

modestly, I am satisfied when one of my images releases a little poetry with so little means and so much restraint. I love the drawings of Sempé, who was a genius at that.
