[Julie Deane]

Thanks for sharing your story, David.

His paintings seem to crop up in places you would not expect:

This is also interesting and perhaps extra copies of the catalog are available: http://www.appletonmuseum.org/exhibi...au010607.shtml

I guess with Bouguereau the position to take is never mind the content admire the technique but is that really enough? I find it difficult to understand people's interest in hiim. What are people seeing that I am not?

Juliette Binoche, daughter of an actress and a sculptor, was only 23 when she first attracted the attention of international film critics with The Unbearable Lightness of Being (1988). Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times film critic with an international following of his books on film and TV reviews, wrote that she was "almost ethereal in her beauty and innocence". That innocence was gone by the time Binoche completed Louis Malle's Damage (1992) (aka "Fatale").
