I like the Nymph too

Another artist who has never seen a real woman.I prefer his 'Nymph' from 1914. No matter where you're standing, they seem to be looking right at you.

I doubt it ... Ancient Egypt seems to have been a pretty rigidly class-stratified society. Anyone who was "vested in the program" and literate / affluent / important enough to leave a coffin (tomb; etc.) would have bought into the elaborate afterlife mythos and not risked screwing up their eternity by shooting off their mouths. Conversely, anyone in the lower class(-es) or a disenfranchised position who might well have that attitude weren't privileged to leave any persistent evidence of their disgruntlement.A poem by my friend Paul de Jong. I find the idea fascinating. Could something like this really be written on an Egyptian papyrus somewhere? ...
Not really big into landscapes but some of his work i like, the ones with the more abstract colours such as the wave picture and the cactusFirst museum solo exhibition of Bob Ross paintings. In the Netherlands:
