January 22nd at 4:00 pm – Reimagining the War of 1812 - “Redcoats’ Revenge” with Col. David Fitz-Enz
What if, on September 11, 1814, the United States had lost the close-run battle that Winston Churchill called the “most decisive” of the War of 1812? With a victory at Plattsburgh, would the British have eventually been able to regain control of their former colonies? Redcoats’ Revenge brings the most successful field commander in history, the Duke of Wellington, to North America in 1814 and presents a montage of the personalities and battles, real and quite possible, of the War of 1812. With a clever and compelling premise, this exciting alternate history will enthrall readers and reveal just how close the US was to becoming a British colony once again.
Col. Fitz Enz was a regular army officer for 30 years. Among his combat decorations is the Soldiers Medal, the army’s highest award for life saving at extreme risk. His unit operated the Moscow Hot Line for 3 presidents. His literary awards include The Distinguished Book Prize from the Army Historical Foundation and the Military Order of Saint Louis from The Knights Templar for contributions to military literature.
February 19th at 4:00 pm - The War of 1812 in American Caricature with Dr. Allison Stagg
This lecture will consider key events from the War of 1812 by exploring satirical visual imagery. Political cartoons were printed with immediacy to capitalize on sensational events and to mock prominent politicians and figures, while extolling pride in the American cause. Caricatures of this period although printed in haste, show how people in America responded to the War of 1812. Rarely are such prints considered in American history dialogue, yet such images are vital documents that provide viewers with the opinions of the every-day citizen in the early 1800s. In focusing on caricatures produced during this period, this lecture considers the “peoples story” of the War of 1812 through a series of visually humorous images.
Allison Stagg received a Ph.D. in Art History from University College London. Her work has been supported by numerous grants, including awards from the New-York Historical Society, New York Public Library, and the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. Dr. Stagg is a recipient of the Jane and Morgan Whitney fellowship at the Metropolitan Museum of Art 2011-12 to edit her Ph.D. dissertation, “The Art of Wit: Political Caricature in the United States 1780-1830” for publication.
All programs above are free and take place at the 1907 Van Norden Carriage House. Seating is limited so reservations are required.
Landscape lovers travelled to the old silver mining town of Aspen, Colorado this past June 23rd to join The Cultural Landscape Foundation (TCLF) for an unparalled series of private garden visits curated by
TCLF Co-Chair Kurt Culbertson, President of Design Workshop. The 2012 Aspen Garden Excursion, featured no less than 6 award-winning residential designs, all incorporating sustainable features ranging from water conservation to native plant choices responsive to the climate and ecology of the area. The sites were all breathtaking, and participants took in dramatic views from a preserve overlook to a streamside estate, from a contemporary mountain garden to a cascade garden. As one of the highlights, Kurt arranged for Jeff Berkus, architect of The Aspen Institute’s Doerr-Hosier Center, to lead a tour through the grounds which include Herbert Bayer’s striking 1955 Marble Garden and environmental artist Andy Goldsworthy’s red sandstone installation “Stone River.” Our group travelled from McLain Flats to Red Mountain and saw a great breadth of topography and creative treatments while also learning about the agricultural history and rich heritage of Aspen and its environs. The day was a great success.

A young Araucaria growing in the Pollock Halls garden in Edinburgh. It is hard to imagine a more orderly structure in nature than a juvenile conifer during its first years. The Araucaria seem to maintain order longer than other species, and that's why they have such a distinct shape. It's hard to mistake it for anything else. The Norfolk Island Pine is similar, but its branches are much thinner. Eventually, the juvenile's orderly branches start competing for light — in the absence of neighbors, they will compete with each other — and their arrangement will become totally chaotic. This specimen is in the middle of its transition from order to chaos, which will probably be complete a few years. It is interesting that as the years go by, their crown's evenelope becomes very regular again, despite all the chaos within. If allowed to grow undisturbed for 100 years, it will become very smooth and symmetrical on the outside, almost like a solid of revolution (as can be seen on some other pictures in this set).
LORRAGH ABBEY.
THIS is the Convent of Saint Peter the Martyr, a Priory of the Dominican Order, and is not an Abbey at all!
PRIORY, FRIARY, MONASTERY and ABBEY....
A question that arises quite often is; what is the difference between a priory and a friary?
PRIORY is the name given to houses that have a Prior as their chief official and a FRIARY is a house where any mendicant order, Franciscan, Dominican, Carmelite or Augustinian lives. The superior of a Franciscan community is referred to as the Guardian so Franciscan Friaries are never Priories. Dominican and Augustinian friaries are referred to as Priories. Carmelite communities are often known locally as Monasteries but they are priories.
Abbeys are a different thing altogether and even though most of the ruins are referred to as ABBEY such as Portumna Abbey, Sligo Abbey or Lorrha Abbey etc., they are in fact Priories and, even more specifically, they are correctly called CONVENTS.
Priory and Friary are popular names rather than official ones. Abbey is incorrectly given to most religious ruins in Ireland. This is wrong! Most of the ruins are of friaries and many of these friaries would have also been priories but never abbeys or monasteries. The monastic ruins of Jerpoint, Gowran and Dunbrody were all Abbeys because they were monastic houses with an Abbot at their head. Portumna started as an Abbey of the Cistercian Order and then transferred to being a Convent of the Dominican Order. Sligo, Roscommon, Mullingar and many other Abbeys were Priories. Athenry Abbey is often referred to as the Dominican Priory – this latter term is more accurate than Athenry Abbey would be.
The life in a priory would be very different from the life in an abbey. Priories serve as bases from which the friars would move out and work where they were needed. Abbeys were monasteries and were independent societies within themselves. Monks have officially withdrawn from the world into a life of prayer. Apart from praying the monks grew their own food, spun their own wool, carved their own stone etc... friars depend on their work among the people and the donations they receive for that work. Hence the name mendicant for friars, a French word for beggars!
THIS abbey, which is situated in the barony of Lower Ormond, in the county Tipperary, and three miles from the Shannon where it empties itself into Lough Derg, was founded in 1269. According to the Book of Friars Preachers of Athenry it was founded by Walter de Burgh, earl of Ulster, whose son, Richard, the Red Earl, is supposed to have founded Carlingford Abbey.
In 1301, a provincial chapter was held here.
1552. June 2. Lease to John Hogan, clerk, late prior of Larrowe, in Ormond [barony of Lower Ormond], of the site of the priory of Canons of St. Augustine, in Ormond, etc., and the site of the monastery of friars of St. Dominick's Order in Larrowe, and land called Freres Rathe, with its tithes in the said town. To hold for twenty-one years, in full recompense of his pension [as abbot of a dissolved monastery], at the rent of 8 during lessee's life, and 13 2S. 8d. after his death. Plants, Edward VI.
In 1629, we find from the Provincial's records that there were two fathers there and one laybrother.
Dr. Burke, writing in 1756, says that the church and the greater portion of the conventual buildings were still erect. He adds that there were old people living in the locality who still remembered the provincial chapter of 1688, in the reign of James II., and testified that they saw about one hundred and fifty friars there in their white habits. Judging from the acts of that chapter, which are still extant and other evidence, there were not probably half that number present. At this chapter, public theses of philosophy and theology were defended, the rarity of which in Ireland, at that or any other period, brought together a great multitude of people.
In 1756, there were two fathers living there, and in 1767, only one,who was parish priest. The last of the fathers connected with this community, Father Michael V. Donoghoe, died between 1789 and 1793.

Despite being so compact, one thing I admire about Singapore is how orderly it is.
With more than 5 million people crammed into this tiny tropical island state, it’s a wonder how everything – well, almost everything – seems to run like clockwork!
This was the view from my serviced apartment just off the famous Orchard Road – where I stayed for a few weeks on a short-term business assignment. It’s a gated residential condominium complex.
About 300 metres away, they were far enough for my privacy but close enough for me to appreciate the orderly and compact living.
If you look closely, you won’t see a soul.
They must have all gone shopping…
…on Orchard Road.

A portrait of John Martyn performing at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow on his recent 'Grace and Danger' tour.
John has long been one of my favourite musicians and was (indirectly) responsible for me becoming interested in photography in the first place.
He's just been awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire - not that there is such an empire these days of course!) in the New Year Honours List for services to music.
It's been a thrill for me to have some of my photos of him feature on two official releases (the most recent being his current 4CD career retrospective Ain't No Saint.
I had the good fortune to be able to photograph this entire show from the edge of the stage, for which my thanks are due to John Hillarby who runs the official John Martyn website (and who also selected the tracks for Ain't No Saint).
If you've never heard of John Martyn, you owe it to yourself (and to a superb artist) to at least find out more. The official website is here:
You can hear some of his classic tracks here:
You can see some of my other pics of John in my John Martyn set.
