And what can I say ? Do you - a copy of a fragment of paintings by Rubens ' Feast of Venus " . Original size 217h350 cm established around 1635 and is located in the Museum of Art History in Vienna (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Wien).

Compare for yourself. Oh , I keep silence about the painting technique ... But Rubens always felt this body - the real , sensual , lush , gorgeous ! And in your picture - the body as if made ​​of plastic, such as Barbie dolls .
