dozen or more female figures. 1t is
plainly evident that they are all painted

natural and full of grace. Sometimes it
is the full face which locks down from
the walls; sometimes glance is half

a symmetrical neck which is visible
But no matter what the pose or how
the woman is pictured, it is always evil

lures the artist has fingered with low
