The fluffy ginger behind of a Highland Cow in a grassy pasture, its horns sticking straight out while a friend with horns that curve upward and shaggy long hair covering its eyes nuzzles the first cow’s neck.

I was behind this couple last week at the Art Institute of Chicago as they framed a small purple-haired figure (from behind) as if it was part of Edward Hopper’s ‘Nighthawks.’ No idea if they put the little doll in other classics but I thought it was cute and funny that they’ll have their own customized visitor to the quiet diner!

On the walk behind other hikers on the Caminito del Rey in Spain. The wooden walkway is attached to the side of a soaring cliff - here, in a narrowing gorge across which you can see a bridge up ahead. Far below and in front is a river. Hikers in blue hardhats traverse the trail.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekAForAbandoned

OK, he’s not really abandoned but this snowman on my neighbor’s patio behind their tall iron fence sort of looks that way to me (or jailed!). It’s a blurry photo from the screen on my window, but he’s a classic 3 rounds snowman with a black scarf and a red knit cap in front of a brick home and windows, behind a black iron fence and a large dirty snow drift and parked car

A Mars exploration rover, on display at the Smithsonian Air & Space Mueum in Washington DC, is an example of the rovers that have been sent to and landed on Mars (and ultimately left there, abandoned after they’ve done their work).

Made it to the Art Institute tonight to see the Rockwell. I think it looks like PCA on the left!

Norman Rockwell
American, 1894-1978
The Dugout
1948
Oil and gouache on canvas
Illustrator Norman Rockwell was one of the most popular artists of the 10th century, beloved in particular for the hundreds of cover images he created for the Saturday Evening Post. The Dugout is the largest of several studies for one such cover, published on September 4. 1948. It was inspired by a springtime doubleheader that he attended during which the hometown Boston Braves swept the visiting Chicago Cubs. The artist created an image contrasting dejected Cubs players and elated Braves fans.
Rockwell staged the entire scene, which enabled him to take photographs for later reference. He recruited several family members of Braves players to act as fans. In the dugout, he positioned (from left ro right) Cubs pitcher Bob Rush, manager Charlic Grimm, catcher Al "Rube" Walker, and pitcher Johnny Schmitz. The figure of the forlorn batboy, however, was not a member of the Cubs:
Rockwell paid Braves batboy Frank McNulty $s to don the Cubs uniform and pose.
By the time the issue was published, the Cubs had fallen to last place in their league. Rockwell's cover helped bolster their growing reputation as the "lovcable losers," and it became one of the most recognized sports images of the z0th century.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekAForAbandoned

The lonely, empty courtyard at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, with its oval pool with what appears sepia tinted water from the reflection of the brownish-red building and a light dusting of snow around portions of the pavement.

The sign inside the V&A Museum in London on the glass doors that would take you out to the (closed) courtyard says: “We’ve had to close the garden whilst we are experiencing wintry weather conditions. If you require assistance please speak to a member of staff.”

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekZForZany

An arrangement of blue and white tiles in the National Tile Museum in Lisbon depict a lion (clearly done by someone who had never actually seen a lion IRL). He has big, smooth paws with small claws and a shaggy mane that is styled like a human’s hair and beard. He does have a lion-like nose of sorts over a wide grimacing mouth that seems to only have a few bottom teeth. His eyes are human-like, under a furrowed brow and glancing down and to the side as if he’s terribly concerned about whatever is just off to the left.

A portion of the installation of Nick Cave’s ‘Mammoth’ at the Smithsonian American Art Museum is an assortment of brightly colored, seemingly random objects like beaded mats, glass statues, a unicylce, flag, and other items salvaged from family homes or antique shops.

Why We Remember
UNLOCKING MEMORY'S POWER TO HOLD ON TO WHAT MATTERS
Charan Ranganath, PhD

Catherine Bannister@cbannister· Jul 2

Interesting. Never really thought about it, but does seem true for me (not that I don’t recall more recent things too)

From Why We Remember by Charan Ranganath PhD: “When we look back at the past, we tend to focus on a specific period of our lives, between the ages of ten and thirty. The predominance of memories from these years is called the reminiscence bump, and it isn't just apparent when we ask people to recall events from their lives; it also shows up indirectly when people rattle off lists of favorite movies, books, and music. Something about listening to a song or watching a movie from those formative years can give us a sense of meaning, connecting us to an idealized sense of who we are.”
