famous abstract painting

¡¡¡¡'My own! May I mention something?' ¡¡¡¡'Oh, please don't be practical!' said Dora, coaxingly. 'Because it frightens me so!' ¡¡¡¡'Sweetheart!' I returned; 'there is nothing to alarm you in all this. I want you to think of it quite differently. I want to make it nerve you, and inspire you, Dora!' ¡¡¡¡'Oh, but that's so shocking!' cried Dora. ¡¡¡¡'My love, no. Perseverance and strength of character will enable us to bear much worse things.' 'But I haven't got any strength at all,' said Dora, shaking her curls. 'Have I, Jip? Oh, do kiss Jip, and be agreeable!'

¡¡¡¡It was impossible to resist kissing Jip, when she held him up to me for that purpose, putting her own bright, rosy little mouth into kissing form, as she directed the operation, which she insisted should be performed symmetrically, on the centre of his nose. I did as she bade me - rewarding myself afterwards for my obedience - and she charmed me out of my graver character for I don't know how long.
