Admittedly, this post has nothing to do with the 18th century. It does, however, have travel photos of Rouen that include pastoral scenes, pockmarked buildings, fruit stalls, one pissing boy foundation, and Gothic churches aplenty. Plus, the Tour de France ends in Rouen today. Need any more convincing? (I hope not cause I’m not giving any!)

I’m in the process of researching the Mad Monks of Medmenham and the Dilettanti Society. This means that those of you hungering for lascivious 18th century tales of ritualistic sex, scandal, and art will soon get your fix. You have been warned.
