The fire danced in her eyes. The flames swam, flared up, sank away, brightened again against the sooty stone, against the dark sky, against the pale sky, the gulfs of evening, the depths of air and light beyond the world.

Dear American customers, We love you & wish you the best but at this time we are no longer shipping to the United States. Our postal services are, hopefully temporarily, not accepting packages to the US & thus we cannot either. Please, put pressure on your gov to get this sorted. Kind Regards.

The Overman Wheel Company produced Victor Cycles, which were top-of-the-line at the time, and their $100 price tag reflected that. When the 1890s bicycle boom went bust, the high-priced Victors couldn't compete. But they always had beautiful ads.

Thomas Pole took up painting in the golden age of British watercolour, which spanned the late 18th and early 19th centuries. A doctor by profession, he settled in Bristol from Philedephia in the early 19thC - this work (c1810) depicts a view into his garden, 14 St James's Square.

27 September 1822: Champollion announced the decipherment of hieroglyphs. Our local echo is a stack of 46 glass lantern slides of Egyptian inscriptions and early alphabets, probably made for a Mr HL Clodd’s lecture on the evolution of the alphabet.

In this battle between pretty blue but very rare gemstones, I am voting Jeremejevite, which is pleochroic with colour changing with viewing angle and piezoelectric, over Haüyne, formed in magma chambers, even though it can fluoresce.
It’s a tough call. Art & physics arguments for both.

Rhinoceros. Unlike Durer, George Stubbs had actually seen this animal when he painted it in 1790! He was born on this day in 1724.

I'm a part of it. Not separate from it. I walk on the ground and the ground's walked on by me, I breathe the air and change it, I am entirely interconnected with the world.
