Pig-faced women!

I came across a tale similar in a way to 'Beauty & The Beast', never heard of it when I was at the age to read  tales and legends:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig-faced_women !

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
In a busy time before Easter I didn't manage to add as much as I would like to here. Catching up when possible then.:-)

Easter Saturday in Poland is the day when all religious people take Easter basket to church for blessing. Below I added a relevant scene: Blessing of Easter food, painted by Wlodzimierz Tetmajer in 1897. The monumental original - oil on canvas measuring almost 140 cm by 250 cm  can be contemplated at The National Museum in Krakow.
