The first badge is the emblem of the Order of Our Lady of the Swan, a religious group that only admitted members of the nobility. The second is the insignia of the elite Society to the Falcon and Fish, a group that organised jousting tournaments for the noblemen based in the southern German region of Swabia

While the badge of the Virgin and Child is not worn here with one of a swan (as it is in a portrait of a lady by an anonymous German artist that is now in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum, Madrid), it is recognisable as the emblem of the Order of Our Lady of the Swan, a religious group that only admitted members of the nobility. Founded in the 1440s by the Elector Frederick II of Brandenburg, the Order was at the height of its popularity in the late fifteenth century, when this portrait was made. The other emblem is the insignia of the elite Society to the Falcon and Fish, a group that organised jousting tournaments for the noblemen based in the southern German region of Swabia.
The white semicircles to the bottom right are part of the sleeve of the man’s shirt; the portrait was cut down at the bottom at some point before it entered the National Gallery’s collection. When it was bought by the Gallery it included the monogram used as a signature by the celebrated German painter Albrecht Dürer, in whose studio Baldung Grien may have worked. When this was discovered to be fake it was removed. The date inscribed above the sitter’s head was, however, confirmed by technical

This portrait by artist, Hans Baldung Grien, contains the last known depiction of the Flat Cat of Swabia.
Beginning in 1499, the Swabian Flat Cat became the collar fur for the fashionable and wealthy.
Once the Flat Cats covered the fields and hills of Swabia by the millions and could reach up to a meter and a half in length. They were gentle creatures, which fed only on the toes of the poor and a were vital part of Swabian ecology.
As a result, Swabia was also known for their toeless clogs, a vital industry that had vanished by 1535 as a result of the Swabian Flat Cat being hunted to extinction.
The subject of this portrait Fredrick von Stupen, inventor of the Beret was a man of fashion and never even in his later years went outdoors without wearing his beloved Flat Cat collars.

Can't remember the artist right now but it was the episode where they did the scientific date testing on the frame that I had just posted about. They had proved beyond all doubt that it was an original imo, going as far as determining the paint contained honey which was one of the artist's ingredients in the many recipes he had mixing his own paints. The art foundation with the final word on this artist made ruling it was not an original based just on their visual inspection.

Check out the artist's other works. The subjects are quite varied and use different styles. Also, some of his portraits show, at least to me, a slight sense of humor in the way he captures the expressions. It makes them feel immediate and warmer.
CBD, Thanks for using today's artist. I want to know more about him and his technique.

>>Picard Season 3 is the only new TV Star Trek I can stand, though I haven't tried Lower Decks.
The problem with Star Trek is the same as Star Wars, the show has not advance beyond the core conception and conceit of STTOS and STTNG, and people only really like the main characters and the writers have not really bothered to develop something new.
I think once Shatner and Stewert shuffle off this mortal coil, Star Trek will join Star Wars in the Grave of IP.

Her state is pretty rural. Voters there are unlikely to get their panties in a wad over shooting a chicken-killing dog.
I think it's commendable that she did the deed herself. Here, in Texas, she probably wouldn't have gotten the opportunity as the owner of the chicken probably would've owned a gun an shot the dog then and there.
That being said...yes, in state. Probably fine and understood. At a national level, probably not fine and understood. Not ready for prime time nationally.

He's entitled to his opinion, but his examples are of protests related to American issues. The average voter isn't going to be heavily focused on Israel-Gaza.

Eh. My point is still not that she did it, per se. It is using it in a book (like using it in a campaign commercial.)
Add into that that usually dog misbehavior is a function of training and discipline. Now I have never trained hunting dogs. I would think that would be a fine line, being aggressive towards prey, but not wantonly destructive. Dogs can misunderstand, especially young ones which makes the mess more of a mess.
Again, not so much throwing stones at WHAT she did, but more that this is something you carry. Animals are a responsibility. If you have fucked up, carry it yourself, strong whamen- don't use it for your campaign.
Plus, I think all GOPe consultants are complete and utter retards or working for the other side.

It doesn't affect my impulse to vote for her (nope then, nope still).
It's just bad politics, and she put it out there herself. It's not that she did it. It's that she advertised that she did it.
If she were just some farm owner who put this up on Facebook, that'd be one thing. But, she's a sitting governor who obviously has designs on higher office. Just...keep that shit to yourself. Like the time you did the brown acid in college and then had a threeway with your roommates.

Sorry but even working dogs deserve to be treated better. If she couldn't handle this dog, she could have given it to someone who was smarter than she clearly is. And saying the dog was worth than useless, is just a reflexion on her character.
And by the way, I had cute fluffy dogs that had strong prey drive, but I didn't shoot them when they happen to kill a squirrel, rabbit, or chicken.

I don't think the base, if it dislikes a politician, is going to rally around her if she admits to shooting a dog. And someone growing up in a culture where eating dogs is acceptable, and eating dog occasionally, is different from an American shooting her pet dog because it was tough to train and killed some chickens.

But, this isn't Little Fluffy peeing on the rug.
In the countryside, this might be a family's income or vital food source. Not everyone is rich or middle-class. So, a chicken-killing (or livestock harming dog) will not be tolerated.
