Edmund Dulac, Jack of all Trades
Yes, a succesful stage production is made of so many elements, that the great text or actor or costumography simply can't be enough. And there should be a bit of luck involved too, I guess.

It was one of his passions. He also loved to shoot with pistols. Can't say why, but he was involved in several extravagant activities. He was a spiritualist, too.

I didn't find nothing like that. Maybe it's a niche worth exploring.

Private collections for sure. Can't find anything in public collections. I know he designed a cabin for a cruiseliner. This probably didn't survive for a century.

Homer claimed that. According to his writings Scylla had six heads - that's why.

I didn't find a lot about his music, but he crrated stuff for theatre plays, so something like cabaret music would probably be closer.

Can't say much about their exercise. They look angry and dangerous, but there can be many reasons for that.

Unfortunately, at the moment I am involved in so many projects, I can't promise too much. But as you can see, I try to publish a wiz every week or so.

I believe his main passion was design - to create something beautiful and ethernal within very realistic and life-like limitations. And of course, he loved to experiment with colors.

Jesus:the Hidden Years
Thank you for your comments below in answer to my previous observations and questions.
Accent- and voice-related considerations caused me to consider modern languages that perhaps Jesus Christ encountered.
Jesus Christ might have encountered Tocharian language speakers -- their language if not themselves Gaelic-related -- if it mattered to him moving through lands northeastward of the Indian subcontinent.
Would He have heard or seen Gaelic respectively spoken or written?

Saving the Toddbrook Dam
The third-last paragraph advises us of area rare liverworts and mosses.
Are such area plants already analyzed and researched or are there losses to scientific knowledge?

The Last Supper
Thank you for your comments in answer to my previous comments and observations.
Elizabeth Wayland, in her Mummies of Urumchi associates ancient Gaelic speakers in their trek from Asia through continental Europe to the British Isles with horse-raising skills, impressive textiles, salt-minable sites and stunningly defensive coastal sites.
Where might the "best" salt have been obtained during Jesus Christ's lifetime?
Might some such sites have been continuously operated since Gaelic-speaking times or was there no such thing as Gaelic speakers in His biogeographical area before and during Jesus Christ's lifetime?

The Little World of the Rockpool
Thank you for your comment below in answer to my previous observation and question.
The library system catalogs Adam Nicolson with publications about Homerian relevance, the King James Bible, sea birds and Trafalgar.
Might you have read any of the above-mentioned books?

Growing in confined spaces
Your last paragraph advises us that "When you see a plant growing in a crack in the pavement you realize that life will find its space anywhere, it will surge up in the most unlikely places. Ideally, we might want a farm or a large garden, but a small garden is perhaps the most challenging of projects. Making the most of a little, now that's a true gardener."
Twentieth-century Unitedstatesian styles sometimes belittled plants blooming in pavement cracks. Twenty-first-century Unitedstatesian styles sometimes cause such greenery to continue unabated.
The latter dominates the driveway and the sidewalks even as I often enjoy whatever grows in front, side and rear yards to jubilate their complete life cycle.
Might it matter for such greenery to grow on your east-Atlantic pond side? Or would it almost warrant litter-to-be-removed status?

Finding the Prince-Bishop's Chapel
The third paragraph to the first subheading, The prince-bishops, advises us of its predecessor abandoned for the thirteenth-century Auckland Palace.
Did the "drafty castle" decline quickly or slowly or did it do some duty as something else?
