As soon as I´m packed I´ll walk to Comillas and swim. I´ll dive deep in the surf and emerge like Boticelli´s Venus-in-a-Conch-shell-plus-ropas. .

As a generalized sociological comment, he may not be wrong. But he has completely missed the point that he resents the United States because of our success and wealth.he told me he had always thought that we Americans were incredibly arrogant, but that it wasn't our fault, but rather due to the hegemony of the American empire, etc., etc.

Hola, Laurie Someone has taken various scenes from illuminated miniatures in a ´Beatus´ and crafted sculptures in a Romanesque style. I´m not sure which medium they used, whether it was plaster or clay or something else easily moulded. There´s a Judgement scene and other themes of a kind found decorating the outside of XI-XIII churches eg Saints and angels, the Church. I think one purpose of the display is to show how 2 D images became 3- dimensional tympanums, portals etc. Extremely exciting. It´s opened my mind.....p.s. What was the Hell display in the Beatus exhibit? carving from a church? Your shot captured some pretty hell-like lighting.
