That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for July 15, 2021

“Somebody tell young Abe Lincoln he’s in the wrong historic painting.”

Excuse me fellas, but my eyes are up here.

“You proved you are a sharpshooter. You hit the straps and not my shoulders. Now, try aiming at the enemy!!”

“The next person to take a gander at my breasts will wind up like those guys. What are you looking at Mr. Top Hat?”

“no it’s not whip em out Wednesday! My strap just broke!

If you don’t want them to look, don’t put it on show.

They charged down the battle-torn street / the dying and dead at their feet, / Marianne lead the way, / then she turned ‘round to say: / D’you think that my garb’s indiscreet?” /// With the Tricolor held in the air / she epitomized her nom de guerre, / “Liberte” was the name / with which she would win fame; / Charles the tenth left his throne in despair. /// With her comrades they toppled a King, / and all France their high praises would sing. / The kid, “Egalite,” / top-hat, “Fraternite,” / and the “Lib” who made topless “a thing.”

(Wish I knew how to get my iPad keyboard to do accents over vowels — not to mention bold, italics, symbols, etc.)

Liberty to the man in the top hat: “Walk ahead of me and make sure all these guys are dead. As you can see, I don’t wear underwear and I don’t want anyone looking up my dress.”

What a party!

Captain Ahab holding a different weapon on land.

How does that grabbez vous?

“Not to digress, Ma’am, but isn’t that Theseus down on your right?”

1789 – A group of cheerful French tourists visit the Bastille!

“Free the Ta Ta’s” “Who’s with me?”

“You talkin’ to MOI ?”

“Well how else should I be dressed on top of the breastwork?”

“Alons enfant de la…oo la la!”

At the storming of the Bastille/ Liberte’ was seen to reveal/ a very great deal/ but of course some schlemiel/ was heard to inquire “are they real ?” (The Ishmael Epic Award goes to Solstice. Sorry, Dragoncat. Lol !)

LIBERTY!…or a wardrobe malfunction.

“This way to the sale at Macy’s!”

allors, what’s the deal with my têtes?

perhaps you would keep them as pets?

and with each sweet caress

in my state of undress

you’ll say they’re the best pet têtes yet…

I have added a comment there (awaiting Mr. Melcher’s OK) pointing to the artist info I used to point to here. Also, if like me you don’t read French (I took German instead in high school because I thought it would help me understand my parents, who would speak this Americanized German when they didn’t want us kids to know what they were saying – it didn’t, that German dialect wasn’t taught; but, that was in 1963, and I only remember a few words now), the blog has the caption in text (don’t have to retype it into an online translator), which with Google Translate added to chrome://extensions, Chrome can automatically translate. So far, 4 works by this artist have been used here.

has the prior (the artist info URLs include the ones in my comment there).

The gentlemen on the left is going to be disappointed to learn that “Liberté, égalité, fraternité” is only for white people.

I see she has let loose her cannons

Pierre thought it was unfair that in order to be taken seriously, he had to show up to the revolution in a three piece suit, with a starched collar and an undershirt, while Marie could throw on whatever rag she had handy, and everybody assumed that she was in charge.

That guy lying in the front left: they not only killed him, they pantsed him. Now he’s really sans culottes, amirite!?

Her bullet proof boobs led the way.

I don’t care what it pays, this is the last time I work a bachelor’s party!

Ah, the French!

Pledge Night at Ole Miss.

Mais lá-dessus sont les plus belles!

The only sure way she can stop them from ogling her breasts is if she slowly eats a banana.

No shirt, no shoes, no problem!

The “Free the Nipple” protest got a little out of hand.

A day late, but “Vivé l’ France!!”

Is this how “au pair” got into the English language?

A snippet of the dream Mr. Lincoln was having before awakening with the idea of issuing the Emancipation Proclamation.

“Qui se soucie de vos yeux?”

Is anyone else wondering why an artist portraying people dying in battle finds it necessary for the lone woman to be topless? Or is it just a lady thing?

Allons-y!

After emancipating America’s slaves, Abe traveled to France to help free the breasts. VIVE LE BREASTS!

Boobs out, guns out. It’s party time!

It has always amazed me how the bodices of the women in Delacroix’s paintings were always able to fall. Women wore undergarments then, yet those also disappeared.

Joan de nude, fighting for woman’s rights., is loosing the battle. but is gaining a great reputation.

really she is fully clothes it’s just trompe l’oeil

man in lower left, was performing with her when the people revolted

Back when playing “King of the hill” was taken seriously.

Allons enfants de la patria! Le jour de gloire est arrive!

Does this outfit make me look radical?

French version of “Sun’s out, Guns Out!”
