	At this point, dear friends, I would like to post some of the wonderful masterpieces that William Bouguereau painted near the turn of the century. I will begin with this Bacchante of 1894. William Bouguereau - Bacchante (oil on canvas, 1894)

	The Wave, below, is no doubt one of the most suggestive masterpieces ever painted by him - or, for that matter, by any artist in the world. William Bouguereau - The Wave (oil on canvas, 1896)

	This one painting by Bouguereau is most famous - indeed with good cause, as all good qualities of an outstanding master work are present in it; and additionally for its mythological theme, in vogue at the time. William Bouguereau - The Abduction of Psyche (oil on canvas, 1895)

	To say these two charming masterpieces are beautiful is an obvious understatement: they are extraordinary. William Bouguereau - The Ford (oil on canvas, 1895) William Bouguereau - Not too Much to Carry (oil on canvas, 1895)

	No comments here: the model's joie de vivre is so evident in this wonderful painting as was the artist's mastery in portraying her. William Bouguereau - Portrait of a Brunette (oil on canvas - 1898)
