My curiosity is of course for your museum’s well being but also any thoughts you may have,?as I see Mr Barns has referred a lot of people to this one individual. PayPal refused to pay him, saying it might be a scam. Meanwhile my Facebook still is disabled.

Were you able to get back into your Facebook account? Patrick appears to specialize in this question.

Flinging. An opponent from without is supposed to unify us like a pandemic is supposed to unify us.

Around 1880 sculptor Adolf BrΓΌtt witnessed Aston’s SchrΓΆder’s rescue by Klaus LΓΆpthien after her suicide attempt. His grief, that she’d have been damned; hers, an unwed mother at that time. By 1887 when sculpted she’d moved to America with husband and daughter. From my photo of bronze, Berlin 2024.

Adult content? Typical life size bronzes found in the monumental cemetery of Milan. One is in a bronze bed (the sculptor's girlfriend, in place of the young woman who died in her 1st childbirth). The other is a nude yearning for the fellow who died in 1943 (his parents are under there also).

Probably. There’s no link to appeal it but a window where I can type commentary once I’ve responded that the help page was unhelpful. I’ve commented that I don’t know why it was disabled and that I got no email about it, and giving tre email address associated with the account.

A photo using a live model from 35 years ago. I've not been in contact with her but she last lived in LA. Here, she was about 20. I've been photographing portrait sculptures of the past since 2014 and making prints of them with their stories.

"Two women of differing temperaments, 1909, after Bistolfi" I photographed the plaster of the Senator Rosazza Monument in Buenos Aires. Models hired via Turin's fine arts academy, modeling a respectable career in Italy. One is on the point of speaking of her distress; the other has seen this before.

"Madame BartholomΓ© nΓ©e Florence Letessier at 25, 1904, after BartholomΓ©" 1st wife dead, tuberculosis, 37, 1886, his work turned to grief, love life over. Florence modeled for him 1899, they married 1901, she 21, he 53. I photographed his marble of her 2022. She is serenely joyous in her skin.

Recall that Nazi was an abbreviation for National Socialist. Socialist. So maggots are socialists?

You’re welcome. I only knew because he needed someone to get his car from urgent care back to his house. He’d isolated himself that much - no more walks, no movies.

I asked H when I visited him last if there was anyone he wanted notified. He said no. It’s kind of like he never existed?

All good here. I’m used to rambling on, the short format here is new for me.

He went to urgent care who sent him to the hospital in Fayetteville where he was diagnosed with severe cirrhosis as well as and probably caused by cancer. Ten days later he was in hospice in SC near some cousins, three more weeks and gone. I don’t think I knew the exact date or time.

Stina SchrΓΆder, 23, rescued by Klaus LΓΆpthien, 1887, after Adolf BrΓΌtt 24 x 39”
She wore a nightdress when she tried suicide in the North Sea, hence the grief on Klaus’ face, a suicide would not be buried in consecrated ground. He can’t imagine why someone would.
By 1880 she emigrated to Minnesota
