The Easterton Of Roseisle Stone - a Class 1 Pictish Symbol Stone discovered at Moray in 1894. The stone probably dates to the 5th or 6th centuries, and is now part of the collections at the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh. 📸 My own #StandingStoneSunday #Picts

two or three small yellow flowers poke through a canopy of burgundy/magenta coleus leaves that cover the frame.   The sun shines brightly from the side, with bright highlights and deep shadows throughout.

By Ìgùn Ẹ́rọ̀nwwọ̀n (brass-casting guild) artists, Nigeria, Court of Benin, Horn Player, ca. 1550–1680, brass & iron, 24 3/4 × 11 1/2 × 6 3/4 in. (62.9 × 29.2 × 17.2 cm), looted by the British army, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. More in ALT. #arthistory #art #africanart #africaart #Sculpture
From the museum: “This figure of a court musician playing a side-blown trumpet attests to the technical virtuosity of the Benin bronze-casters. The figure's elaborately textured garment depicts the hide of a leopard, an animal associated with the power of the Oba. Similarly, the strands of coral around his neck and chest reaffirm this musician's status in the Benin court, since coral, like bronze and ivory, is a royal prerogative in Benin.” 

Also from the museum: “The British invasion of the capital of the Kingdom of Benin in 1897 was part of a campaign waged from 1892 through 1902 to forcibly bring most of the inland territory of modern-day Nigeria under British rule. With the British conquest of Benin City, Oba Ovonramwen was exiled to Calabar and soldiers plundered the palace. The brutality of the removal of its contents has forever decoupled altars dedicated to each individual oba dating from 1300 to Benin’s conquest with the specific works conceived to commemorate them…

Subsequent to the nineteenth century dispersal of Benin works, awareness of their extraordinary aesthetic power, beauty, and complexity profoundly influenced Black public intellectuals. Notable among these in the U.S. were W.E.B. Dubois, Alain Locke and artists from the Harlem Renaissance on. At the same time, their relegation to ethnographic museums during the colonial era continues to reflect the legacy of their forceful removal and segregation from comparable cultural achievements by Western creators.”

I did this. On purpose. Ok so I’ve never worked with stained glass before and had to watch a ton of tutorials on how to solder, but I think it’s pretty good for a first try, and I may suddenly have a new crafting obsession. Plus it matches my tattoo 😂

When beholding beauty & prosperity that is not theirs, Western Empires are not then inspired to go on to build it within their own countries but instead, are moved to pillage & plunder bcuz they have never truly evolved out of their ancestors' 'Viking Scarcity Mindset.' youtube.com/shorts/IjaJf...

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme chosen by Rob is #Pairs, photos with pairs of the same species in them. The Alt theme is #Green, photos with Green in the backgrounds not on the birds. I’ve got a #twofer today with this pair of Puffins and green in the background 🙂 I hope you have a lovely weekend.
A pair of Puffins are sleeping on a cliff, surrounded by pink sea thrift. The Puffins are showing their black and white plumage and their ted, yellow and blue coloured bills are tucked into their black wing feathers. The background is green.

So, a Nor'easter is hitting NYC and Boston, there's a Cat 5 hurricane near Mexico and SoCal, and Hawaii is getting hit by another major hurricane. It's wild how all this is happening and people aren't even talking about how much of this is fueled by climate change and record ocean temperatures.

A photograph of a flower cluster of a white Rose. Two blooms are open, one in the foreground facing forward with the other behind, facing backwards with white petals and a beautiful pink centre. Two buds can be seen above them one just beginning to open.  The background is a dark green mainly showing the rose foliage as it blurs softly in to the distance.
