I think this one may have been taken looking into a very, very, very old mirror... a self portrait of Loulou one thousand years ago ?

What a visual feast you have every day apparently !

Cela me fait penser du film "Le Festin de Babette"... tu réunis les meilleurs éléments dans tes photos pour préparer un repas inoubliable...

Our world is full of history. I'm so happy this was found! Makes me want to be an archeologist, to find the past! Lovely photo!

Good morning or afternoon, LouLou.

I so admire your work and I want the world to see what you do. I don't know if you accept blog awards or not but I gave you one on my blog. It's yours if you want to accept it or just would like to know i think you are amazing. I am thankful for you with or without accepting the award.

Please do not feel obligated to post it or accept it.

Many, many blessings to you and to all you see in your world, Lou Lou.

A further proof that female beauty is able to pass through ages, even centuries, without losing its power.

J'adore la sensualité qui se dégage de ces statues et il y a là comme un plaisir, un hymne à la vie qui donne du plaisir à regarder tout simplement cet art de bas-relief ! Oufff ! 'mettrais un point ou une virgule de plus la prochaine...! J'aime ce "côté tactile" qu'il y a dans cette "Grâce et beauté" !
Merci Loulou........... ;)
