Hung Liu (1948-2021) was a Chinese-born American contemporary artist. She was predominantly a painter, but also worked with mixed-media and site-specific installation and was also one of the first artists from China to establish a career in the United States. Liu's work merged past and present, East and West, earning her acclaim in her adopted country and censorship in the land of her birth.

A firkin is a 10.8 gallon cask. Cask-conditioned ale, or 'real ale' is:
"a natural product brewed using traditional ingredients and left to mature in the cask (container) from which it is served in the pub through a process called secondary fermentation. It is this process which makes real ale unique amongst beers and develops the wonderful tastes and aromas which processed beers can never provide."
—CAMRA (The Campaign for Real Ale)
In one word: fresh.

Not really a 'real ale' but a 'real lager!' The term refers to beer brewed from traditional ingredients, unfiltered,and re-fermented within the vessel from which it will be served. In this case, a firkin (10.8-gallon cask).

During the18th and 19th centuries, Leicester Longwool Sheep were prized in the American colonies and nascent U.S. for their rapid-rearing and their superior luster wool and good milk. George Washington is known to have raised them at his estate at Mount Vernon. By the early 20th century, the breed had vanished from the U.S., supplanted by other breeds. Colonial Williamsburg's Rare Breeds Project has re-introduced it.
Stillpoint Farm, in Mount Airy, Maryland, is one of several U.S. farms now raising Leicester Longwool.
