The Blog

Most people enjoy looking at art that evokes some sense of the sensual and romantic. I wanted to create a one-stop site on the Web where anyone could find & peruse the most comprehensive collection of art tracing the themes of love, romance, desire, the amorous & the erotic-- an ambitious project I daresay, but one that I am dedicated to! Watch my collection grow as I 'hang' new prints/paintings each day! (NB. The blog takes its title from the 1800 painting by Adolphe-William Bouguereau). Enjoy!
