A very special Eighteen-Thirties Thursday today as I have finally learned the correct word for those wacky huge tobacco pipes that were in vogue with Europeans in the early to mid-19th century.

It is a Turkish style of pipe called a chibouk ("stick"); also romanized čopoq, ciunoux or tchibouque. The more you know! Constantin Hansen's 1837 painting of Danish artists in Rome has many lovely details in high resolution, including chibouk pipes.

Romances

"A Maria ouve a irmã, como se finalmente encontrasse uma heroína dos romances de amor. A Marta ouve a irmã, imaginando-se com os mesmos dilemas de uma heroína dos romances de amor."

José Luís Peixoto, "Cemitério de Pianos"; pintura de Constantin Hansen.

Now we know the real reason why athenians chose her.

Also, poor Nyctimene in the background being traumatised.
