Marcantonio Franceschini (Italian, 1648-1729) Adam and Eve, ca.1680 Mauritshuis, Den Haag

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth" (Genesis 1:27-28). - The Bible

Voters in the 18th Congressional District (East Harlem), line up outside a polling place on Fifth Ave., between 111th and 112th Streets, to cast their vote, November 2, 1948. The district was the scene of a three-way fight for the House of Representatives seat of Rep. Vito Marcantonio of the American Labor Party. He was opposed by John Ellis, Republican-Liberal candidate, and John P. Morrissey, Democratic candidate.

A Big Apple Feathursday

These collagraph prints by American artist, educator, and printer John Ross (1921-1917), made for the 1998 Birds of Manhattan, depict a few of the more common birds of that island against various architectural features of the city. It's sometimes easy to forget how biodiverse Manhattan is, particularly in bird life. Manhattan lies on the eastern route of the Atlantic flyway, so it receives many visitors as well as serving as a year-round residence for many species of birds.

The book, another donation form the estate of our late friend Dennis Bayuzick, was conceived, designed, illustrated and printed in an edition of 40 copies by John Ross at his East Hampton, New York High Tide Press in collaboration with relief aid officer and Greek and Latin scholar Lloyd Jonnes, who wrote the text. The binding, with its inset painted relief of a Cardinal, is by James D. Marcantonio at his Hope Bindery in Providence, R.I. This book was selected for the 1998 “50 Books / 50 Covers” by the American Institute for Graphic Arts in New York.

Some years into the reign of Empress Cirilla var Emreis, a series of murals were painted in one of the Empire of Nilfgaard's most prominent cultural centres. The murals appeared to depict the Empress as a winged guardian spirit.

This portrayal soon became popular across the continent, and cemented Cirilla's presence in the shared mythology of her vast empire for many centuries to come.

The Empress herself would allegedly despair at the popularity of these art pieces, stating reasons of inaccurate characterisation.

Paul Robeson had scant respect for most politicians, but Vito Marcantonio, the longtime congressman from East Harlem, was an exception. (See the recent post on Marcantonio here.) He attended the man's funeral on August 12, 1954.
