Geraldine Farrar during the finale of JOAN THE WOMAN (1916), Cecil B. DeMille's first religious epic. The flames were colored with the Handschiegl color process, which stamped colors onto prints. It was imprecise but well-suited to flames.

It is newsworthy that the president of the United States is increasingly verbally abusive of women reporters and he should be asked about it.

Women who uphold the patriarchy and constantly demean feminism should not be online spouting their opinions on their own social media platforms.

You shouldn’t have an opinion or a platform. Let your husband do that for you…

Trinity College chapel, pastel. I'd forgotten about this one. Spotted when looking through photos of paintings on an SD card. I think this one is oil pastel but I'll have to find the original to be sure.

One cannot go to Hannah Arendt’s work for comfort, Jennifer Szalai writes of the German-born political thinker. What she offers instead is “the company of someone who had direct experience of the horrors of the 20th century yet never relinquished what she called amor mundi, or ‘love of the world.’”

Read this: www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...
Becoming a U.S. citizen takes years and involves immigrants acquiring a green card, extensive interviews, background checks, classes and a citizenship test. The naturalization ceremony is the final step to the process, where the oath of allegiance and a citizenship certificate are granted. Immigrants approved to be naturalized went to Faneuil Hall Thursday - known as the country's cradle of liberty - for that long-awaited moment to pledge allegiance to the United States. But instead, as they lined up, some were told by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials that they couldn't proceed due to their countries of origin.

Still Life with Three Puppies by Paul Gauguin, 1888, The Museum of Modern Art (New York City, NY)

#ArtHistory #ModernArt #PostImpressionism
This painting features three distinct ones: a still life of fruit in the foreground, a row of three blue goblets and apples diagonally bisecting the canvas, and three puppies drinking from a large pan. The incongruous scale and placement of these objects on a dramatically upturned tabletop results in a disorienting composition. When Gauguin painted Still Life with Three Puppies, he was living in Brittany among a group of experimental painters, including Emile Bernard. He abandoned naturalistic depictions and colors, declaring that "art is an abstraction" to be derived "from nature while dreaming before it." The puppies' bodies, for example, are outlined in bold blue, and the patterning of their coats mirrors the botanic print of the tablecloth. It is thought that Gauguin drew stylistic inspiration for this painting from Japanese prints, which were introduced to him by his friend and fellow artist Vincent van Gogh that same year, and from children's book illustrations.
