This is hand inked & given some digital effects. I really think this one (even though it'd be a nightmare to do) would really be worth carving into a linocut. That's where I'd like to take prints for my less painterly and more graphic design works.

A fountain still standing in #Bern, #Switzerland depicts the #BloodLibel against #Jews. The Kindlifresserbrunnen (#Swiss #German for “Child Eater Fountain”) is located in the Kornhausplatz (Granary Place).

It includes a painted statue of an ogre wearing a pointed Judenhut (“Jewish hat,” which Jews were legally required to wear in German-Speaking #Europe - both as a form of humiliation, and so Christians could easily identify them) who is devouring a naked baby as he carries a sack full of three additional horrified babies on his shoulder.

The history: In 1293-1294, several Jews in Bern were tortured and killed, and others were robbed and expelled from the city after accusations of a blood libel. Bern Christian citizens absurdly and baselessly alleged “#TheJews” had tortured and murdered a boy named Rudolph.

The historical impossibility of this widely credited story was later demonstrated by Jakob Stammler, pastor of Bern, in 1888.

However, that would come centuries too late, especially as some Jews returned to Bern in the 14th century only to be accused – again, absurdly and baselessly – of poisoning wells during the #BubonicPlague in 1348. In response, a mob of Bern’s Christians rounded up the town’s Jews and burned them at the stake.

Finally, in 1392, all remaining living Jews were expelled from Bern. About 150 years later, this #antisemitic statute was erected for all to see and remember the "evil Jew" who would "eat Christian children."

It would be laughably absurd if it wasn't for the fact that many thousands of Jews were tortured and murdered (usually burned alive) across Europe over similar accusations over the centuries.

Canon Heartstrings lore: Dude & College

Alex and Dude get an apartment off campus together with the help of Alex’s family. Dude has a pretty easy time adjusting to college (though the hours that go in between classes often leave her scrambling for things to do). When she’s not in class, she’s in her art studio. When she’s not in her art studio, she’s with Alex at a frat party. Dude’s not really a party girl. She really only likes the live music and dancing, but she’s happy to spend time with her best friend.

During a critique for her painting fundamentals class her professor takes great interest in her work, and after class asks her if she’s the one on the full ride scholarship which Dude proudly exclaims that she is. Her professor, Isaiah, quickly becomes one of her biggest supporters, giving her great feedback and pointing her in the direction of art shows and other opportunities. Dude is very happy to have found someone who likes art as much as she does and sees him as a sort of father figure.
