Your first fact, about Stassen still lifes, divulges your finding an auctioned, signed Stassen still life from 1935.
Was there any indication as to what the price was, who the owner was and who the purchaser was?

Nautical Theme Wedding Invitations
There can be quite a bit of sea and shore decorations with nautical-themed weddings.

I know from your wizzley about understanding faith that the image to the left of your title is of St. Peter's.

The first fact focuses upon still life even as that fact furnishes Stassen as not one of its enthusiastic advocates or practitioners.
There must be some inventory of the total number of Stassen artworks and of their representation in each art ...

Jessie Willcox Smith: Her Life Through Art and Paintings
The second fact about her schooling associates Willcox Smith with photography.
Did Willcox Smith have her own camera? Was that camera the source of a private or public collection of her as photographer?

Thank you!
I do not know why I don't recognize St. Peter's from its accurate image. For some reason, I look at it and mull why it makes me think of Petra!

Jessie Willcox Smith: Her Life Through Art and Paintings
The second fact, about schools, brought to mind something that I've wondered regarding dead and live models.
Is there any etiquette as to cleaning and preserving dead models? There must have been decayed, decaying parts and smells -- not to ...

Nautical Theme Wedding Invitations

But surely that etiquette does not condone killing and ...

The first image, of the still-life flowers and fruits, indicates that Stassen indeed had an understanding of how edibles arrange themselves naturally and of how they drape under human influences.
It's a bit amusing to me to see all these white ...

Some online sources attribute attempted suicide to Rudolf Otto falling from a tower almost half a year before his death from pneumonia March 6, 1937.

Looking at your wizzleys on your profile page allows me to see the images that sometimes I miss seeing when they're left of the title.
So I know what the topmost image looks like. It looks familiar even as I manage not to draw up its location ...
