Bouguereau was a master stylist at classical realism. It is really hard to believe that a human hand created those exquisite paintings. He treated all of his subjects with dignity and understanding in his compositions. Look at all of those elegant faces. Simply stunning.
@frostytheaussie With absolutely perfect feet. Feet are two of the parts of the body that are hardest to get just right; Bouguereau painted feet that are totally realistic, yet also absolutely graceful.
Perv? These are paintings, art... they weren't meant to have sexual context...perhaps the real perv is the poster with his(or her) head in the gutter...grow up.
this was the first song i ever can remember hearing..ever i love it more than any other song ever! this was also the first song i taught myself to play by ear..such an amazing song
This is brilliant - does anyone know who performs this version of Canon? It appears to be in the key of C (I'm no music expert so don't know if it is C Sharp or C Major - just that it's not in the key of D which is easy to find). I'd really like to know so I can use this music at my wedding!
Its when music that flows like this ,is played and paintings are shown one after the other ,that you appreciate the painters art.Thanks for the experience,keep it up.Bob
i love this song it sound like 2 ppl fellin in love starts out out like every other movie to me there just meetin and they like each other then they flirt date and get to be really good friends and some thing happens... then this feelin of love creeps up on both of them and it like they cant tell the other person cause they dont know how they'll take it but to both of the the feeling go greater then they tell each other and that when i bust out like a big wave and they let the love grow and grow
That's the not the most eloquently written comment, but it's so true. That's such a great characterization of this piece. I completely agree with you! I think you've inspired me to play this again!
I love this rendition of the song, I only have a partial recording of it, and it fades out in a most dissatisfying way (why does classical music make me talk like this?) Anyway, I was prompted to look it up on youtube, and in doing so was introduced to the works of W.A.Bouguereau, for which I am very greatful to chance, and the creator of this video.
There are times the works of mankind aren't the works of a man...

@metallica12606 M Bouguereau is one of the greatest painters of feet; I wish I had his skill.

If you are not going to make a pathetic Justin Bieber joke, do not bother point out that you are not going to. It is annoying either way.

Agree about Bouguereau being a painterly god. Woefully under-appreciated. The art goes nicely with this music, too.
