Officially my favourite paintings in the whole world. Don't worry, it will get better. :)

• 
  Le Printemps

• 
  Portrait of a Young Girl
  Is that in a church or something?
• 
  Ready for the Ball
  Oooh, a fan.
• 
  The Time of the Lilacs
  I have some of those…
• 
  Young Girl Fixing her Hair
  Why is it in Category:Blond hair on the Commons? Looks pretty red to me…
• 
  A Spring Beauty
  That hat just wows me out.
• 
  The Turtledove
  Simply amazing.
• 
  Take the Fair Face of Woman, and Gently Suspending, with Butterflies, Flowers, and Jewels Attending, thus your Fairy is Made of Most Beautiful Things
  Definately my favourite painting by her.

• 
  Tête d'Etude l'Oiseau
  I just love the dress…
• 
  The Young Shepherdess
  Interesting I don't see any sheep…
• 
  Big Sis'
  I would really like to be in the littler sister's position :)
• 
  A Little Coaxing
  She wouldn't need to coax me—I'd give it to her almost before she asked!
• 
  Not Too Much To Carry
  That looks like a familiar position…
• 
  At The Fountain
  I think I'm speechless. I wish I could paint that.
• 
  A Childhood Idyll
  (I would probably have fallen asleep—good thing he never used me as a model! Well I guess it helps to have not been born until 82 years after he died…)
• 
  Two Sisters
  Well I've said before you can never have too much Bouguereau! :)

• 
  The Luncheon of the Boating Party
• 
• 
  Mademoiselle Irine Cahen d'Anvers
• 
  Dance at the Moulin de la Galette
• 
  Girls at the Piano

• 
  In the Peristyle
  There's nothing like simplicity + beauty—I just love it.
• 
  Ophelia
  Shakespeare rocks my socks anyway. :)
• 
  A Roman Offering
  The only thing I don't like about it is it's long and narrow. Everything else is top notch.
• 
  A Naiad
  "Anybody home?" :P
• 
  La Belle Dame sans Merci
  I saw this and a few other Waterhouses at a bed&breakfast in Southeast England and I'll never forget how beautiful they were (they were the first Waterhouses I'd seen).
• 
  Ophelia
  This one is even better than the other one.
• 
  Juliet
  If she didn't look exactly like one of my younger sisters it wouldn't be such a big deal. But she does. And I really want to kiss her. :)
• 
  A Mermaid
  That's the only real-looking mermaid I've ever seen—the rest are so ridiculous I just want to puke.
• 
  The Crystal Ball
  I actually thought that was a clock the very first time I saw it.
• 
  Windswept
  She looks surprisingly detached…
• 
  Lamia
  That looks almost Impressionistic (although not as much as the Gather Ye Rosebuds While Ye May series)…
• 
  I am Half Sick of the Shadows Said the Lady of Shalot
  Most of his late-later works I don't like, but this is an exception.
• 
  Miranda
  As is this.

• 
  The Accolade
  My eye for detail feasts on this, simply feasts on it. Impressionism is good, but this leaves it far behind.
• 
  The Call to Arms
  Action building…
• 
  Courtship
  This little painting has about the same effect as chamber music.
• 
  Godspeed
  No detail is too small.
• 
  Lilacs
  Would you like a few?
• 
  The King and the Beggarmaid
  It actually took me a few seconds to notice her clothes. I actually thought it was his queen or something at first.
• 
  Tristan und Isolde
  I can never think of this subject without thinking of Wagner.
