This is a nicely detailed painting with a lot to pick apart. Or "unpack," as we say today. The textures of the chair and bedside table, the mattress, sheets, and wallpaper, and the women's hair are all fascinating. There's color with the red blanket and the nurse's blonde locks; and the mattress's stripes add interest.
It is odd that the girl in the bed is facing the wall instead of having her head closest to it. Wonder why.
On the table, I suspect that dark bottle might be some laudanum.

That would be funnier in a world where sepsis didn't exist. 1892 (the year both of Vallotton's painting here and of that Charlotte Gilman story I noted) was a world where it did exist.

I can imagine the side table being moved towards the bed.
The artist doesn't want the patient's face visible to the viewer because the face of a sick person would detract from the rest of composition. The subject of the work is the angel of mercy walking through the doorway. She glows, perfectly poised with q cup of goodness in hand.

The door and doorframe, the bed frame, the carpet, the glassware especially that long necked flagon sitting where it could easily be knocked over with no table space for dispensing.
The nurse ignoring the patient.
Where is she going to set the cup of tea which is not the way tea is served.
This painting bothers me.

There was a "natural" water source near where I grew up, and people would bottle the water, and then often get sick from bacterial contamination.

The bed is oriented so that the patient faces the wall. The staff can look thru the windows in the door to see if the patient is sleeping. The tallest bottle looks like a wine bottle. The next tallest seems to be a carafe so that's probably water. Small brown bottle is likely laudanum. Nurse/maid is bringing a nice cup of tea.
I suspect the patient is recovering from childbirth.
The reflection on the side of the carafe is kind of fascinating.

Sorry I just finished this years computer based training, they have a whole course on it,
"Subverting the Paradigm And Why You Should Never Do It and Shoot Anyone That Does",
Here's a random photo of Chad, look at that jacka** subverting the paradigm, what should you do in this circumstance?:
A. Notify a security guard that Chad needs Shot.
B. Notify HR that Chad needs Shot.
C. Notify your manager to notify HR that Chad needs shot.
D. All the above***
(*** it's always D all the above dummy, just select all the above, don't be a paradigm subverting chad)
I selected D because I didn't want to take the terrible training again and I respond surprisingly well to Operant Conditioning.

It's always good to remember that it's a 5:1 ration of self-deportation to forced deportations.
And of the 1, the forced deportations, 75% just go without even trying to fight.

He was a radicalized Muslim hired by the CIA to go after other radicalized Muslims in Afghanistan and then given a pass to enter the US because the Biden administration was ideologically dedicated to importing the world no matter what.
Even Trump's elevated asylum requirements passed him in April, making the asylum system worthless.
Asylum is not permanent residence, and it's time for the world to understand that as they take back their radicals, criminals, and cancer researchers come back to provide cultural enrichment to their home countries.

In a way, they are correct.
We are standing on the outer edge of a very deep rabbit hole. The CIA along with MI6 and other western intel agencies have been building foreign armies for years in countries they are trying to topple. Started during WWII and never ended.
They train guys like the DC assassin to fight groups like the Taliban and often leave them behind when we leave. Unfortunately, some times we bring them here. He is far from the only Afghani psychopath that was allowed into the US after Biden's disastrous end to the Afghan war. Let's hope the Trump administration is smart enough to not let this happen with Ukraine.

No, there is no current 5:1 ratio of self-deportations to forced deportations in the USA as of November 28, 2025.
According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), over 2 million undocumented immigrants have self-deported since the start of the Trump administration in January 2025, while hundreds of thousands have been formally deported through enforcement actions.
Earlier DHS data from October 2025 specified 1.6 million self-deportations and over 527,000 forced deportations, yielding a ratio of about 3:1. By mid-November, updated estimates suggest around 2 million self-deportations and approximately 600,000 forced deportations (based on projections and partial fiscal year data), resulting in a ratio closer to 3.3:1.

And as I said have been doing it for decades. Brought a lot of Cuban "freedom fighters" to south Florida after the Bay of Pigs disaster and look what happened there.
When the war in Ukraine ends we should be on the lookout for the CIA connected to start putting out tear jerking statements how it is our duty to import the same type from Ukraine where the CIA has been running the country since Barry's color revolution.

Felix Vallotton
Features the nape of Helene Chatenay. Very well done but odd, unrealistic. I'd pass hanging this painting.
---
Felix Vallotton, World Press dot com, Nov. 28, 2013
Blog dedicated to the Swiss master painter Felix Vallotton
Tag Archives: Hélène Chatenay
In part, "Based on his numerous nudes, one can surmise that Félix Vallotton loved women – he loved their beauty, their coquetry, even their flaws. But his affection for women never went beyond the canvas.
For many years, he led an affair with Hélène Chatenay, who was also his model for several of his paintings. Hélène was very dear and loyal to him, even growing close to the Vallotton family. But as Vallotton was devoted to his craft, not to Hélène, he left her for the elderly widow, Gabrielle Rodrigues. Vallotton didn’t even bother trying to hide his true motives for his engagement to Gabrielle Rodrigues – she came from a distinguished family of wealthy art dealers.
When looking at some of works, one can catch a glimpse in his character. Just like in his woodcut Money, converted his romantic affair with a woman into one of financial gain." (More followed.)

The POINT was that people (especially men) will pretend to care about the dimwitted opinions of people who are hot (especially women).
When the hotness fades, as of course it does for everyone, that pretense disappears.
It's a rude awakening, especially for "Hollywood celebrities".

Gotta disagree. He was part of CIA Zero Unit, guys trained in guerrilla warfare, torture and murder. He wasn't the only one from that group brought to the US.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to find his friends.

If they were trying to honestly asses whether kids are getting an evening meal they would have a multiple choice.

2. is your after school meal called dinner
3. after school meal is called some thing else, fill in blank
4. I dont eat anything after school

Wajahat Ali: "You wanna blame Afghans for this? Then deport all whites. They're mass kiIIers."
Posted by: Anonosaurus Wrecks
----
Google Books: Wajahat Ali is a New York Times Contributing Op-Ed writer, public speaker, recovering attorney and tired dad of two cute kids.
For starters, he knows Afghan refers to a nationality, not a race. Afghanistan is a diverse country with many different ethnic groups. But he makes it about race for the low info. civil society "democracy" set.
In only about 4 years, +/- 190,000 Afghans - ten to twelve thousand CIA-backed "Zero Units" or "National Strike Units" - and their families were resettled in the U.S. just via Operation Allies Welcome and Operation Enduring Welcome.
Lakanwal, an Afghan American wannabe who worked for a CIA unit & - possibly - displayed mental health issues back in Afghanistan, drives across country, shoots National Guardsmen protecting the U.S. Capitol for what? Twisted logic of loyalty to a prior administration or something else?
We need to know.
Further, of late, even Pakistan expelled Afghan nationals citing security concerns.
