Thread Name: BS: Name of painting? Tabu ad
Subject: RE: BS: Name of painting? Tabu ad
Thank you SRS. The ad you found used the original ad in the background. The original was just the background picture. Tabu advertisments after the original used it somewhere within the new picture as a kind of running joke. Some of them were very clever. If you take a peek at the one Bill D was *grinning* about up earlier in the thread you'll see a modern version of the original picture using an artist and her (sigh!!) model. Note that this is the one that sent Bobert in search of a cold shower. This particular one doesn't show the original but it has elements of of in the composition. eg. the tipping piano stool.
There's another example of the original used as what jeri calls a "wee picture" in an ad for Tabu. That one can be seen further up in this thread too. Joy
