What comes to mind when I look at Caravaggio’s Fruit on a Stone Ledge? Scrumptious, tempting, dark, inviting, succulent, mouthwatering, enticing, exotic, elusive, rotund, curvy, pointy, dimply, soft, firm, earthy, vibrant, delectable --- I can go on and on.
A friend of mine requested that I write a tribute to DC derrieres – those ubiquitous wonders that he cannot help but admire every time he is fortunate enough to share public transportation with the womenfolk of this great metropolis. He is quite a connoisseur, he claims, and just relishes those moments when he can exercise his right to “look but not touch.”
Well then, here’s to you my friend. Caravaggio’s masterpiece says it all!
Caravaggio's masterpiece does say it all - look and admire, but do no touch the fruit. ;-)
