Hi Stan,

You must have one fascinating clock shop! I just looked up Emmanuel Villanis -- I can see why you collect his work! I couldn't find a photo of "La Reve," (guess I must dig deeper), but I did find a full-figure one called "Au Revoir" that I especially like.

I saw "The Kiss" at the Rodin Museum in Paris many years ago. Although we're bombarded everywhere with much more graphic images....I think that there is something very eyebrow raising about that sculpture even today! "Intimate" is the word that best describes it, I think!

Thanks again for the nice visit!
