	I sure do miss Roger. You and he could converse in artistic lingo about brush strokes and palette and movement and all that. I used to pick up a lot of knowledge from you two chaps:)

	Joyce, I was thinking of Roger seconds before you posted your message, how I love sharing with him on art. I was reading a few posts from Dali's thread, seeing how Roger usually helps me see a painting from a different angle, which enrichs our exchanges. I terribly miss him at this thread.

	I will take this opportunity to show a virtually unknown painting by Bouguereau - at least, unknown among us amateurs. It certainly deserves being exhibited and not for any particular qualities, which it undoubtedly has, but because it portrays a humble woman at work with the same finesse the artist wuld display to paint a queen. William Bouguereau - Washerwomen of Fouesnant (oil on canvas, 1869)

	In sharp contrast with the previous painting, Bouguereau's Bather of 1864 may have caused uproar for obvious reasons - particularly at this stage in his career. William Bouguereau - Baigneuse (Bather) (oil on canvas, 1864)

	This is a wonderful studio, in my opinion, worth a huge sum. When it was made is uncertain - any time between 1860 and 1870. William Bouguereau - Study of a Young Girl's Head (oil and pencil on canvas - circa 1860-1870)
