Maybe I'll just whisper
neither humble neither proud
Listen if you care to,
but I will not sing too loud
No, not tonight
Just before i'm over and out
I wanna sing of better times,
I wanna sing of hope
We've heard those empty promises
Sound like such a joke
And so I stumble
So hard to say, so difficult
Sometimes I am not able
To separate my dreams from false cliches
But the more and more I hear it
I feel the spirit rise
The people here are talking 'bout
The oneness of our lives
Maybe I will turn away, maybe you will run
It just maybe a foreshadowing
Of what's to come
So anything can happen,
I don't believe in fate
I wont try to convince you
'Cause it's getting kind of late
There it is. Just before i'm over and out
My parting shot - just to say you hold the reins
But the more and more I hear it
I feel the spirit rise
The people here are talking bout
The oneness of all life
Maybe I will turn away, maybe you will run
It just maybe a foreshadowing
Of what's to come
And while you struggle.
to realize this earthly paradise
Isn't so far above us
So put away those poisonous ideas
You know it's just ideas
They're the only... enemies 'round here
I see your eyes are closing,
didn't mean to keep you up
There's more that I could say now
but I guess i've said enough
So sleep well. Just before I'm over and out
Yes, sleep well, just before I'm over and out
The more and more I hear it,
I feel the spirit rise
The people here are talking about
the oneness of all life
Maybe I will turn away, maybe you will run
but it just may be,
a foreshadowing of what's to come

William Dobson, born in London, England, 1611; active in England; died in London, England, 1646
A Family, probably the Streatfeild Family - ca. 1645
Anthony Van Dyck’s death in 1641 allowed William Dobson, an Englishman, to become the preeminent court portrait painter. Dobson’s sixty or so surviving canvases were all painted during the early 1640s in Oxford, where Charles I held court during the Civil War. When Oxford fell to the Parliamentarians, Dobson moved to London, where, lacking patronage, he was imprisoned for debt and died aged thirty-six. This group portrait is a remarkable representation of a gentry family: the Streatfeilds were ironmasters and wool merchants who rose to become landowners in Kent. It is also a memento mori portrait. The mother points toward her eldest child, singling her out as the recently departed. A red mantle further distinguishes her from the rest of the family, who are dressed in somber black. The multiple skulls foreshadow the ultimate fate of everyone in the portrait. The two children on the left were finished by another artist.
This portrait passed down in the Streatfeild family of Chiddingston, Kent, and is thought to represent Richard Streatfeild (1611-1676), his wife Ann, and three of their children. The Streatfeilds were ironmasters and some of the wealthiest members of the region's gentry. The enigmatic inclusion of the naked child to whom the mother points, the cherries held by the youngest child, and the skulls piled atop a broken pedestal may allude symbolically to the premature death of some of the couple's children. One of Dobson's few surviving portraits, this was probably still incomplete at his death in 1646, and finished later by another artist. Certainly the two children on the left side appear to be the work of a different hand.

In a New Light: Five Centuries of British Art
This installation sheds light on the surprising and complicated history of British art, bringing into focus the people and cultures that produced these artworks. From the sixteenth century to the present, Britain has attracted artists from all over the world, with their outputs as diverse as their origins. Many artists traveled or migrated to India, the Caribbean, and beyond. Individual and family portraits uncover the systems of class, gender, and race that undergirded societies around the globe and privileged the wealthy and influential. Other works depict landscapes, seascapes, manor houses, and cathedrals, often offering a record of the industrialization of an agrarian world. Allegorical, historical, and religious subjects further enrich our understanding of the expansive culture of a changing nation.
Many highlights from the Paul Mellon Collection including Hadleigh Castle, The Mouth of the Thames—Morning after a Stormy Night by John Constable, Lion and Lioness by George Stubbs, and The Island of Barbados, attributed to Isaac Sailmaker, find new resonance with several recent acquisitions—such as Emma Soyer’s Young Mariner and Dog, Thomas Beach’s Four Servants of Ston Easton Estate, and Albert Huie’s Benjamin Dorrell. This display reflects not only the individual creators of these objects but also the societies that shaped them.
Opened in 1977 through the generosity of Yale graduate and philanthropist Paul Mellon, the Yale Center for British Art holds the largest and most significant collection of British art outside the United Kingdom. The collection spans five centuries and is the foundation for a museum uniquely focused on the histories, legacies, and shifting contexts of British art. Housed in a celebrated modernist building designed by Louis I. Kahn, the museum is situated on the Yale University campus in the city of New Haven. It is free and open to all.
"On the campus of Yale University, two art museums housed in landmark modernist buildings — each designed by Louis I. Kahn — sit directly across the street from one another. One, the Yale University Art Gallery, with an encyclopedic collection of about 300,000 objects, draws close to a quarter million people annually. The other, the Yale Center for British Art, with its specialized collection of more than 100,000 works from the 15th century to the present, brings in less than half that traffic.
The British center is now aiming to even up those visitor numbers.
It reopened in March after a two-year closure for conservation of the skylights and lighting throughout the building — the acclaimed architect’s last realized project, which opened in 1977 and is widely considered an artwork in itself — and with a fresh exhibition philosophy.
A piece by Tracey Emin, who came to fame as one of the so-called Young British Artists in the 1990s alongside peers like Damien Hirst and Sarah Lucas, inaugurates a new program of contemporary works in the lobby. Her glowing sculptural installation, with yellow neon lighting proclaiming in script “I loved you until the morning” on a mirrored wall in the museum’s entrance court, is visible from the street. It serves as an “invitation” at the front door, said Martina Droth, the center’s director, who was appointed in January after working with its collections for 16 years, most recently as chief curator."

The museum’s collections include more than 2,000 paintings, 250 sculptures, 20,000 drawings and watercolors, 40,000 prints, and 35,000 rare books and manuscripts dating from the fifteenth century to the present. More than 40,000 volumes supporting research in British art and related fields are available in the Reference Library. The collection is rich with historic works by John Constable, Thomas Gainsborough, Joshua Reynolds, George Stubbs, and J. M. W. Turner, as well as works by major artists of the twentieth- and twenty-first centuries, including Hurvin Anderson, Francis Bacon, Vanessa Bell, Sonia Boyce, Cecily Brown, Barbara Hepworth, Anish Kapoor, Henry Moore, Ben Nicholson, Yinka Shonibare, and Barbara Walker.

One of the museum's greatest treasures is the building itself. Opened to the public in 1977, the Yale Center for British Art is the last building designed by the internationally acclaimed American architect Louis I. Kahn. The structure integrates the dual functions of study center and gallery, while providing an environment for works of art that is appropriately elegant and dignified. The building stands across the street from Kahn’s first major commission, the Yale University Art Gallery (1953). Located in downtown New Haven, the YCBA is near many of the city’s best restaurants, theaters, and shops.
The YCBA’s exterior of matte steel and reflective glass confers a monumental presence in downtown New Haven. The geometrical four-floor interior is designed around two interior courtyards and is comprised of a restrained palette of natural materials including travertine marble, white oak, concrete, and Belgian linen. Kahn succeeded in creating intimate galleries where one can view objects in diffused natural light. He wanted to allow in as much daylight as possible, with artificial illumination used only on dark days or in the evening. The building’s design, materials, and skylit rooms combine to provide an environment for the works of art that is simple and dignified.

Painting showing romanticized view of life under Communism, foreshadowing Soviet Realism style of propaganda art.
On hole 17 there was a pack of vultures. I joked that somebody's game died here. It was a par 5 afterall.

This is a close copy of a <a href=” upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/ce/Garofalo_Circ... target=”+blank”>painting by Garofalo now at the Louvre Museum in Paris</a>. The Louvre panel is from the predella (base) of an altarpiece depicting the
"Massacre of the Innocents" painted by Garofalo in 1519 for the church of San Francesco in his native Ferrara. The Walters panel is one of the many variants produced in the artist's workshop soon after the original. The sketchy quality of some of the draperies and onlookers suggests it is unfinished.
The infant Christ sits on the lap of an old woman while the Jewish high priest performs the circumcision. The young woman immediately behind him is likely the Virgin Mary (this figure has a halo in the Louvre version). Saint Joseph is probably the bearded man behind the priest. According to Jewish tradition, circumcision is performed eight days after a baby’s birth and is the moment where the child officially receives his name. Christianity accords a particular importance to Christ's circumcision since it was the occasion on which he first drew blood. It therefore foreshadowed of his future death at the crucifixion.

I am a caffeine addict. I admit it. On the back of these little guys it says "warning: this product contains high levels of caffeine." So I drank four in a row thinking my next class was drama: a very active class. We ended up having a meeting in which we sat still in chairs. I was quivering.
A little foreshadowing of what I was about to encounter in Denver. This is the only photo I have of Natalie before I met her, and I don't think it's really a good photo of her, but I'm including it for obvious reasons... now, Natalie used to model for a fetish store, wore plastic clothes nearly exclusively, and had platinum-blonde hair at one point. She said she still has a pile of those clothes at her parents' house...
