The Monday Morning Memo

How’s this for an interesting treatment of the wise men?
It’s called The Italian Prints by Anna Fisher (1873-1942.)

Obviously, Anna meant for us to see the Italian prints of
(1.) Mary and Jesus and (2.) the wise men, but notice the second group
of wise men in the bowl of flowers on the shelf in front of those prints.
We’re looking over their shoulders as they view the two prints
representing their visit to the infant prince Jesus.

We can assume Anna is referring to Jesus as an Italian prince
since the halo behind the head of Mary indicates these prints
to be Roman Catholic in style. Wizzo says this is the most
interesting painting of the wise men he’s ever seen. 

Happy New Year
Dudes and Dudettes!

Random Quote:

“For in a Trappist monastery each monk has an occupation of his own choice, apart from his religious duties and the general labors of the house. Each must sing in the choir, if he has a voice and ear, and join in the haymaking if he has a hand to stir; but in his private hours, although he must be occupied, he may be occupied on what he likes. Thus I was told that one brother was engaged with literature; while Father Apollinaris busies himself in making roads, and the Abbot employs himself in binding books. It is not so long since this Abbot was consecrated, by the way; and on that occasion, by a special grace, his mother was permitted to enter the chapel and witness the ceremony of consecration. A proud day for her to have a son a mitred abbot; it makes you proud to think they let her in.”

- Robert Louis Stevenson, Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes (1878) p. 66
