This painting is nearly 100 years old.

It's by Grant Wood (most famous for American Gothic) and it's called The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere.

Why does it look like that? Because Grant Wood had one of the most unusual styles in art history...

Pitt Street, Chinatown, Liverpool, 1942 by Bert Hardy. Photographed Chinese seamen for Picture Post, unpublished because too sensitive. They were on half pay of British seamen, lived in squalor, went on strike and were labelled troublemakers.

I love you the most
I believe for your art
How you painted a smile
On my small cold heart

Instead of the usual paintings, today I fancy posting nice pictures, especially if they have old cars in 'em. Lowers the blood pressure a treat that does. 🙂👍

“When you wake up in the morning, Pooh,” said Piglet, “what’s the first thing you say to yourself?”
“What’s for breakfast?” said Pooh. “What do YOU say, Piglet?”
“I say, I wonder what’s going to happen exciting today?”
Pooh nodded thoughtfully.
“It’s the same thing.” ~A.A.Milne

I have cleaned & enhanced for you these 3 autochrome studies of a nun tending flowers 115 years ago at the photographer's summer house “Fernbrook”, in Lenox, Massachusetts, USA. They were taken by Thomas Sheilds Clark in 1910 and are original colour, not colourised.
