;D I think it's funny how spent the guy looks, totally drained of energy. But, yeah, that's what's supposed to be going on, those two enjoying each other. The painting is by Titian, and called (something like) Three Ages of Manhood. I guess young adulthood should be spent getting your flute blown ;D

YES, another great one. Have you seen the movie Frida? It's great but they should've done it in Spanish, it would've been more of a tribute that way. Still, its very good.

I love this thread. You guys rock.

I was an art history major in college. And like most art history majors I don't work in the field. Hahahaha. But art is a close 2nd to music in my life.
