The Monday Morning Memo

Wise Men at the Court of Herod, circa 1800. This painting is notable because 9,999 of 10,000 paintings of the wise men show them following the star or presenting their gifts to baby Jesus. This is the only painting the wizard and I have ever seen that shows them at the court of Herod where they ask, “Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.” – opening lines of Matthew chap. 2

Random Quote:

“Ten minutes after, the sunlight spread at a gallop along the hillside, scattering shadows and sparkles, and the day had come completely. I hastened to prepare my pack, and tackle the steep ascent that lay before me; but I had something on my mind. It was only a fancy; but a fancy will sometimes be importunate. I had been most hospitably received and punctually served in my green caravanserai. The room was airy, the water excellent, and the dawn had called me to a moment. I say nothing of the tapestries or the inimitable ceiling, nor yet of the view which I commanded from the windows; but I felt I was in someone’s debt for all this liberal entertainment. And so it pleased me, in a half-laughing way, to leave pieces of money on the turf as I went along, until I had left enough for my night’s lodging. I trust they did not fall to some rich and churlish drover.”

- Robert Louis Stevenson, Travels with a Donkey in the Cevennes (1878) p. 94
