Norman Lindsay ⁣

The Moon’s My Constant Mistress⁣

1918⁣

⁣

“Published in the book Bedlamite Verses of the XVI and XVII Centuries for Tom O’Bedlam.⁣

⁣

“Tom o’ Bedlam” is the title of an anonymous poem in the “mad song” genre, written in the voice of a homeless “Bedlamite”. The poem was probably composed at the beginning of the 17th century. In How to Read and Why Harold Bloom called it “the greatest anonymous lyric in the [English] language.”⁣

The terms “Tom o’ Bedlam” and “Bedlam beggar” were used to describe beggars and vagrants who had or feigned mental illness (see also Abraham-men). Aubrey writes that such a beggar could be identified by “an armilla of tin printed, of about three inches breadth” attached to his left arm. They claimed, or were assumed, to be former inmates of the Bethlem Royal Hospital (Bedlam). It was commonly thought that inmates were released with authority to make their way by begging, though this is probably untrue. If it happened at all, the numbers were small, though there were probably large numbers of mentally ill travellers who turned to begging, but had never been near Bedlam. It was adopted as a technique of begging, or a character. For example, Edgar in King Lear disguises himself as mad “Tom o’ Bedlam”.”⁣

La muerte y la doncella. Acrílico sobre cartón cuero. Gran formato. 1989. Uno de los temas medievales que de vez en cuando me gusta pintar. Lo tengo enrollado porque es muy grande. Se hizo para la exposición "Simulador", de la que hablaré en otro post. #medievalart #medievalworld #medievallegends #kiko_feria_art #simulador #warriors #maiden #acrylicpainting #art_for_sale #artdrawing #artlegends #mistery #deadandmaiden #surrealart #medievaltales #ilustracion #medievalmaiden #medievalwarfare #medievalwarrior (en Kiko Feria Home · Trazo Digital) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNmZxdYDap0/?igshid=fierveq6kkhz

Ramelzee and Basquiat were the badest motherfuckas in the art world. Though they were sometimes more like frienemies due to Ramelzee being a little jealous of Jean's commercial success. In 1983 they collaborate on a record together called Beat Pop where the multu talented Ramelzee rapped and Basquiat produced the beat and cover art. Baquiat was no stranger to production. He had a noise band called Grey that was blazing the NYC punk scene. Ramelzee predated Basquiat in the relms of street art and painting but wasn't as celebrated until way later. When they made the Beat Pop single they were at odds. Ramelzee kinda chumped Jean by telling a interviewer that "Jean didnt do anything but foot the bill for the record." Jean laughed it off, but it bothered him. Ramelzee was one of Jean's hero's and influences. And for one moment in time the universe synched these two together to create Hip-hop's Holy Grail. It was a short lived moment but beautiful. They pressed 500 copies and never worked together again. The original pressing of this record can be found being auctioned for millions of dollars way before Wutang and Martin Skrelli. 1983 was the year two art legends became Hip-hop legends. #jeanmichelbasquiat #ramellzee #BeatPop #HipHopLegends #ArtLegends #Frenemies #HolyGrail #NewYorkLegends #Samo #BlackHistoryMonth #StreetArtLegends #MostMyHeroesDontAppearOnNoStamp #BlackArt #AllCity #KingsOfNY

Desempolvando nuestro pasado prehistórico. Hoy tuve el privilegio de estar por 1ra vez en una excavación arqueológica. Después del huracán María retorno a mi antigua casa el Jardín Botánico, pero en otra etapa de mi vida. Ahora en la rama de la arqueología. La semana pasada me cancelaron mi curso de arte sabatino y ayer me llamaron para dedicar mis sábados a esta nueva misión que tanto había deseando. #nohaymalqueporbiennovenga Las cosas malas no existen cuando sabes construir tu futuro. Este momento se lo debo a muchas personas. Agradecido con todos 🙏 #hoy #ciencia #puertorico #estudiando #cultura #taíno #historia #arqueology #arqueólogo #crecimiento #Arte #prehistoria #ARTorDIE #respectthebeard #nuevageneración #RescatandoelArte #inspiration #ArtLegend #Artcadia #Renegado #Censurado #ElmásPlagiado pero siempre luchando #ElCreador de #ARTEOMUERTE #ElOrigen #Revolución #Artística ⛔ #arteómuerte = #plagio ⛔ https://www.instagram.com/p/CprT1CpOJlz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A magnificent mail call today!! I have been checking out some legends and their art books for the past few weeks. Ordered these two and I’m excited to look for other books to add to my art book library. After some research I went ahead and picked up this reprint of Jones’ IDYL. I will find a copy of the original in good time. I also scooped up my first McGinnis art book and it is gorgeous!! I love the email of new books!!! I will showcase each of these books in their own post in the near future. #NewBooks #NewBookSmell #ArtBooks #JeffCatherineJones #Idyl #ImAge #RobertMcGinnis #TheArtOfRobertMcginnis #ArtLove #CollectingArt #ArtLegends #AmazonPickUps (at Colorado Springs, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMgJpGfhnbc/?igshid=1sesgmh9knp6v
