Neaat. What about a favorite painting?

Mm, I like Fragonard! Very froufy and rococo.

Oh man, that's hard... probably The Waterseller. And yours?

Fragonard is cool! I love his boudoir paintings, especially the one with the girl lifting a little dog with her feet (and thereby giving us a generous view of her rosy ass).

Why the Waterseller?

You like rosy asses, don't you vuri?

Cliche, but, The Swing! It's so lovely and peaceful and also kinda pervy.

Something about the old man's face, those creases on his brow - age, and wear, and a hard life - always reminded me of my own grandfather. And it's masterfully painted, of course, but beyond that it's always been a very touching image, for me, and most importantly poignant without being campy (in contrast, look at Bouguereau's equally well-painted but decorative, rosy-cheeked and pretty "beggars"; I love Bouguereau too, mind you, but none of his work shakes this kind of artificiality). It feels honest.

Yes. Yes, I do~

Oh, I like that one too! And I know somebody did a parody Hetalia version once, with France being the pervert in the bushes. ;)
