Overview and easy access to all pages.

My (small) virtual museum. Renaissance and classical paintings, Greek sculpture, 20^th Century art, Hermitage (St Petersburg) sculptures and paintings.

Now with 100 MIDI files (mostly classical) and links to more.
Also with the complete BWV.

Expressions (en français).
And a little English and German.
See my page about faux-amis;
read a film critique in Europanto...
enjoy the intricacies of English Pronunciation;
read what Larry King and George Orwell say about trendy language; and discover examples of "expressions xyloglottes" (this is in French).

Verse from my favourite poet, Jean Pellerin, and strophes from other, better known writers (mostly French, two German).

Various texts in various languages.

Une page sur La Fontaine (French).

Opinions. My view of some aspects of the world (not very politically correct).

In French or English or both. One in German, one in Europanto. Today they call this a "blog" but I don't keep a real diary. Politics, Terrorism, Environment
Coups de gueule et coups de coeur. Voir le texte de Pierre Desproges sur le football.

Read what Vaclav Havel wrote about politics

Showing several sets (about 430 picts in total), with music if you wish.

One of my hobbies: virtual images made by "constructive spatial geometry". Several new pictures. See my house. Now with panoramic pictures.

All the 153 cars from Tintin albums, with corresponding photos of the real automobiles, a short quiz and a page about variations between different versions of the albums.

Fascinating Hugo Pratt... 80 pictures.

Composition et qualité. Bouteilles ou robinet ?

Energy, facts and perceptions. Is biomass a good solution?

A set of pages for all Dardels in the Universe (!), with pictures of family reunions in Sweden and Switzerland.
Also a full genealogy of the family (> 4300 entries...), a brief family history and a Swedish Dardel page.

Only for the curious.
