An artistic parody is
drawing sharply different responses in Quebec, depending on whom you ask.
Police found a
likeness of Premier Jean Charest, dead, on a printed leaflet when they entered
the home last week of rival politician Amir Khadir, a Quebec MNA. The premier's
body is laid out at Khadir's feet. It's a parody of an 1830 painting by Eugene
Delacroix, Liberty Guiding The People, which depicted a scene from the French
Revolution.
