Beautiful film
Of course, the young pretty artist falls in love (or in lust) with her much older male teacher and they get in trouble.
Although the dialogue is french, you really don't need to have the subtitles on during this movie if you don't speak the language....especially since a good part of it deals with people being naked and Artemisia's reactions to that.
Rating : 7/10
