The Kiss

No this post is not about a certain now notorious incident that happened following Spain's recent victory in the Women's Footlball World Cup Final....

We've just spent a lovely weekend staying with Gail's friend Molly and Neil, who live in Macduff. So much excitement as we were not the only visitors, and with seven people and three dogs in the house, oh the tales I could tell if only I had the time...

Gail suggests I just focus on one particular scene on Sunday morning, when I was making friends with young Meg, also a guest in the house, who was reclining on the living room sofa. 

Does this photo remind you of anything? 

Neil and Meg (artists both) agreed that it called to mind 'The Kiss', a famous work (so I've just learned) by prominent Austrian painter Gustav Klimt

To help you see the parallels, I've done a wee bit of image cropping and rotation.

What do you think? 

P.S. Apparently I need to make sure in future that I gain the consent of any attractive young ladies before jumping on them and kissing them. I had the distinct impression that Meg rather enjoyed my attentions, but Gail says that us males sometimes misinterpret signals...
