Re: BIG

I remember the first time I went to the Reijkmuseum (sp) in Amsterdam.... as 
a little boy I remember those images on my grandfather's cigar boxes...wow! 
they were a LOT bigger! (chuckle)

a part of this picture was actually, if I remember correctly, CUT AWAY in
some bygone century to make it fit on a certain wall.
Here in Berlin we have 'the man with the golden helmet' - or however it is
called in English: it is not all that big, and its authorship is contested
nowadays, but all this does not make it less beautifull. >>
