Elisabeth Vigee Lebrun – Lady Hamilton as a Bacchante
This portrait represents a remarkable collaboration between two fascinating female figures in 18th-century Europe. Though she spoke begrudgingly of the free-spirited and often scandalous figure of Lady Hamilton, Elisabeth Vigee Lebrun painted her multiple times. Vigee Lebrun was one of the only successful professional female artist of the 18th century, and was a favoured portrait of Marie Antoinette during her controversial reign as queen of France. In this more light-hearted commission, Vigee Lebrun pictures the frivolity of Lady Hamilton as a Bacchante, a companion to god of wine.

Sushi

|
The sushi is called sushi due to the vinegared rice. So, it is still sushi without the fish. If you need to be precise, it is called sushi meshi or sushi gohan. Sushi generally mean sour or vinegared while meshi or gohan mean rice.

O my Luve is like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in June;
O my Luve is like the melody
That’s sweetly played in tune.
So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I;
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry.
Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.
And fare thee weel, my only luve!
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my luve,
Though it were ten thousand mile.
~ Roibert Burns

Fear and peril are palpable in Richard Ansdell’s en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Ansdell 1862 painting of an enslaved man and woman cornered by snaring dogs as they escape through North Carolina’s great Dismal Swamp. Despite the danger and uncertainty, thousands of African Americans fled the cruelty of slavery in a bid for freedom.
