French Atelier Nude: 19th Century French Studio Male Nude

Well the auction ended with 59 total bids and a not so surprising total of Euro 2,210.00 ($3,135.78). What a beautiful work and what a beautiful addition to someone's art collection.

Just when my bank balance is approaching zero, look what pops up on eBay France! Holy Cow! The hand of a true master at work. Just makes you want to go out and get stinking drunk! To paraphrase Rick: "Of all the lousy gin joints in the world and you have to show up in mine!" I am sure it will look good on somebody's wall.
