This four-panel screen, color lithograph depicts nannies tending to children playing with hoops and dogs at the the Tuileries Gardens near the Place de la Concorde in Paris. In a letter to his mother Bonnard referred to this screen as "the eighth wonder of the world." I agree.
"Recovered" by M. Henochsberg, 1869
I hate saying "Happy" Veterans Day because I think war is a sickening waste. Nothing happy about it, except perhaps when the soldiers come home. I hope our active soldiers can soon move into the ranks of the veterans and stay there.
I couldn't find out much about the above lithograph. The Library of Congress simply states, "Wounded soldier lying on ground with two soldiers kneeling and dog sitting alongside him."
It was created in 1869 and depicts Civil War soldiers. I wonder what its purpose was. Drop me a note if you have any idea.
My local radio station KVMR is playing songs for veterans, many of them are anti-war. Click here to listen to a live stream of it — the best local radio station in the land (really).
