    Did you know that Marie Antoinette never said the famous frase: "Let them it cake"?

    I heard it was pronounced by a certain duchess or countess or, somebody in Versailles belonging to the court several years before Marie Antoinette's arrival to France!!

  3. This is great! The swirls make me think of VanGogh & The Scream by Edvard Munch.
