Regency portrait of an unknown gentleman with a fabulous cravat and pin.
Who was the painter? Who was the sitter? Questions for the ages.

Dramatic landscape of a snow-covered mountain range. The sky is filled with ominous dark clouds. A single sunbeam shows through the clouds, lighting up one side of the rocks. Two small buildings can be seen on the left-hand side, while on the right, travellers in a coach are trouble. In front of the coach several men are trying to control horses which are pulling a cart.

Maderbräustraße in Munich, the epicentre of the 1844 riots. A black-and-white photograph of an empty city street with church towers in the background. The photograph was taken about 3 decades later, but the Maderbräu building still existed then. It is visible in the left foreground.
For four days in in May of 1844, protesters controlled Munich and the army refused to fight them. We do not talk enough about these things. Also, a #Dampfnudeln recipe from the #19thcentury.

A Balinese singa is a mythical, winged lion creature serving as a protective guardian, symbol of strength, and ward against evil spirits in Balinese Hinduism. Often carved from wood or stone with a ferocious expression, bulging eyes, and fangs, these figures are commonly placed on roof corners, temples (puri), or homes, similar to gargoyles. The hindu carvers of Bali believed that the living wood could be imbued with the actual protective spirit by consecration in a ritual. Westerners may see a work of art, but the creator no doubt also saw a deeply spiritual object!

"Whilst recovering from Red Fever, my gentle Southern nurse insisted on dosing me with rhubarb and soda mixed equally with their local distilled spirit called 'moonshine.' I'm not sure which part cured me."
