It's Art, Dudes

 

A bit conflicted in this slide. Sure, a slide of a framed picture sounds like Tedious Tuesday fodder, but...

...It's cool.

According to what was writ on the slide, "Jun-85 Bali, Ubud Museum".

...and that lead to this website

Bonus - A quick bit of ISIHAC

Skansen - 75 years

 

In commemoration of last night's visit to Nottingham to see GOAT (a Swedish Psycho-Voodoo group....honestly), this slide seems slightly appropriate.

No details on slide, but clearly from the 75th Anniversary Celebrations for Skansen. That is the oldest open-air museum and zoo in Sweden located on the island Djurgården in Stockholm, Sweden. It was opened on 11 October 1891 by Artur Hazelius (1833–1901) to show the way of life in the different parts of Sweden before the industrial era.

Bonus :

The Thing

 

Just ... The Thing.

No info on the slide (as usual) except a processing date of 1991. Thanks.

But, I think it's a piece of Seljuk Glass, maybe this one.

Bonus - North Korea TV censors Alan Titchmarsh's trousers

The Scowl of the Dragon-Woman

 

You would NOT want to mess with the lady in the centre. One wrong word, and you'd be turned into a newt until you'd learned some manners. Young Olaf (on the right) spend his birthday as a woodlouse after complaining about the present that granny had brought.

Slide is marked Oslo Folks Museum, 1966, and I would not disagree. (The Norwegian Museum of Cultural History.)

Bonus - New day, new PC, same crappy blogging service.

Bonus 2 - 

Gold? Gold. Gold! GOLD!

 

There's gold in them thar Museums.

Bonus - Operation Popeye was a military cloud-seeding project carried out by the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War in 1967–1972. The highly classified program attempted to extend the monsoon season over specific areas of the Ho Chi Minh Trail, in order to disrupt North Vietnamese military supplies by softening road surfaces and causing landslides.

Saturn 1

I wonder. Is it possible to go to a Space Museum, and take a tedious picture.

Yes.


Bonus -

The Romance of the Railway.

...epitomized by this Fowler and Jarrett Model 892 Handcar.

Thrilling Stuff.

Bonus - Waltz of the Flowers

The Sleeping Trollop Waken By A Trainee Angel

A sculpture by Benjamin E Spence (1822-1866), and also known as "Oberon and Titania".
