Bernard Buffet

This afternoon my roomate came down with a reproduction of a Buffet painting that she meant to show me

since she noticed my framed Buffet poster showing a Buffet rooster:
. She could not remember where she found that or knew anything else about it. So we kinda stayed there for a while trying to figure out what to make of it. Tonite I decided to see if I could find some info on the net. What I found out was that she had only a cut of the real thing, for it is quite bigger and means something else in its whole

and is titled "20,000 leagues under the sea: the giant porthole in the Nautilus", painted in 1989. To see more of Buffet's work and a bio go to the Musée Buffet...
