Don't go mentioning this in Frisco Texas. Nudity and Pregnancy are not politically correct educational topics.

When Europe becomes Eurabia and great pieces of art are no longer allowed can we have this one? Also, I would like to have Holbein's Anne of Cleves, a very lovely portrait.

This one? I agree.

Imagine a world without this... or the Venus de Milo... or Stephan Lochner's "The Virgin in the Rose Garden"....

I've always felt Mona Lisa needed eyebrows.

That's the very one, isn't it beautiful? Look at her eyes. If the eyes are truly windows to the soul than this lady is lovely indeed. I know all that has been said of her "she that was dull, stupid, without grace of form, knew no music and could not sing, blah, blah etc," but to me, I though her the loveliest of Henry the VIIIth's wives. Thanks for posting this. :O)

Remove Notre Dame brick by brick and bring it to the US. Empty the Lovre and every other museum in Europe that has artwork that would be destroyed/banned under Sharia Law.

Henry VIII had a vested interest in letting the "dull, stupid, without grace of form" etc slander get about; personally, I don't believe it, I'll believe Holbein's painting, she is serenely beautiful.

It was the fashion of the day for ladies to shave their eyebrows.

Darn, did it again posted without finishing what I wanted to say. I think of so many of the Renaissance artists who's work will be destroyed like the Buddhist statues in Afghanistan. Western treasures will not fare any better I'm afraid. These people scare me, but worse they infuriate me.

Somebody send me some grant money for my contention that the subject of "The Scream" was a premature ejaculator.

I wish we could bring everything here. It make me angry to think that most Euros won't fight for the greatness of our Western Civilization. I think what will happen to them and then I look at what is happening to us. We are not much better. Will we stand and fight? I know half of this country will, but can we win? Debatable. Think of all the music that will be banned, Mozart is already feeling the pinch.

Yes, Henry had a reason for not liking Anne, I think her name was Katherine Howard. LOL! The Duke of Norfolk was very uncomfortable with the idea of a Protestant queen, especially one put forth by Cromwell. Hence his pushing his niece on Henry who was more than eager to accept the girlish Katherine. By the time Anne made her way to England Henry no longer needed an alliance with the Protestant Princes. Poor Anne she never stood a chance against the intrigues of Henry's court.

However, she was fortunate enough to live out her life at Hever Castle, and didn't have capital offenses trumped up against her to get her out of the way.
