Du marbre ciselé ! Cette statue, en provenance de Rome, représente Maria Duglioli Barberini (1599-1621) et peut s’admirer au Louvre, au département des Sculptures du Moyen Age, de la Renaissance et des temps modernes.Travailler le marbre avec autant de finesse c'est absolument sublime ! Sculpteur : Giuliano Finelli (1626)

La superbe "fontaine des ballerines" réalisée par l’artiste sculptrice polonaise Malgorzata Chodakowksa. C'est l'eau qui, lorsqu'elle s'écoule, crée les robes des danseuses. Elle est située dans la ville de Suzhou en Chine. Vraiment magnifique !

"La douleur" (Sorrow), 1898
I first saw this painting in a film, but I can't remember which one. The woman in the film went to a museum and looked at this painting, which I think represented her own pain. I found this painting extraordinary and I imagined the story of a mother who has just lost her child, a soldier in the war. Everyone looking at this painting can imagine a life, lives, a novel, a saga. Just life!

Interesting remark. I just was recently in June at the very traditional catholic funeral of my grandmother who was 103, and the same image. It is part of our village's tradition to be like that. At the funeral of his father, my father, who was at that time 15th, was suffering so badly that everyone remembers that to this day. It was never said loudly, but everyone kind of took it as a sign of his weakness … but he was just a kid.
