I tried to find the location, but my search kept turning up only the name of the photographer.
There was one site where it seemed to be part of a Rockwell museum, possibly in his preserved home and studio, but not enough information was given, which seems weird.
There IS one in a wax museum but the display was different.
Okay… this is weird(-ish). I mean, it’s meant to be, because it’s a surrealist painting… but … according to my search..
“In Hairy Locomotion, a girl is kidnapped by a man lurking high above the street, who extends his long beard down around the corner to snatch her up as she passes.”
I didn’t find any mention of the men walking on their beards, but the title suggests that they do.
Varos was one of the few early female surrealists, a contemporary of Dorothea Tanning, who painted yesterday’s trout. They had to fight for a place among the male artists, whose Surrealist. Manifesto (1924) excluded them. They did eventually become well respected in that genre.
Somebody here said almost this the other day about cookies or some other serving size.
You know, I don’t eat as much as I did when I was younger, but even so, I still run into ridiculously small suggestions.
They do it for lots of reasons… one so you think it’s okay to pay $8 for those cookies, because you think you’ll get 16 servings @50 cents. Then you polish off half the bag and realize it cost you $4.
Another is that they don’t want to tell you the sodium, or sugar content, or the calories for the amount you’ll actually eat.
One of my favorites is the label on Ritz crackers. Before you eat that whole “sleeve”…. they say a serving is FIVE crackers.
Do you know anyone who only eats five Ritz crackers?
Plus, they’re good dry, but even better when topped with various goodies. Peanut butter, cream cheese, fig preserves, smoked salmon, just to name a few…. Low-cal health food. 🙂

He has his own wax museum?

The end of a very rainy race day at Ascot, 1955.
Most people have left their seats and can be seen leaving the grounds.
Famed photographer Henri Cartier-Bresson spotted this one older man trying to hang on in his seat, with the somewhat futile aid of a folded newspaper.

Poor pepper.
Now I’m gonna feel guilty next time I commit peppericide.

Wow. I know some men used to go a little heavy on the mustache wax, but this is ridiculous.
“Hairy Locomotion”, oil, 1959… Remedios Varo,
(Spanish-Mexican surrealist, 1908 – 1963)

I do like the one steering with his moustache,,,

“Get away from my girls!”
Isn’t the one who’s giving chase the “girl”?
Strangely, it looks like there are two roosters in back.

LOL!!!
One way to get your daily exercise I suppose…

The egg looks “sunny side up”, but I think it’s rock hard.
And the bacon is still showing a lot of pink, but it isn’t soft at all.
You need really strong digestion to eat this stuff.
not to mention good teeth
After the first breakfast, they’re probably not so good.
Them they have to go on soft food… like what? Sand sculptures?

Motor magazine had gorgeous covers.

For a moment I thought the camels were little tents or thatched huts.
I think that means bedtime.
at least you didn’t think they were mammoths…
True…. I mean, I considered it, but I don’t think they had color film back then, and Prokudin-Gorsky hadn’t invented his tri-filter method.

This one, IMHO, really does work better small.
Another by Ukrainian artist Oleg Illich Shupliak.
“Awful answer” is correct. I don’t mean the answer is correct, but that it’s quite correct to call it awful.
There’s no way to see or prove its assertion.

That might have been me, I couldn’t remember the full quote.

Except for the fat and sodium.
But they now have a low sodium version, so I eat those.
Mine said that I was two and a half people.

At first I thought the greenish stuff was something growing on the shoreline, and this thing was some kind of pier or dock…
But no, it’s the head and snout of a smalltooth sawfish.
I couldn’t find any details for this particular picture.
They can grow to be up to 25 feet long, but most are far shorter, so this snout might be a few feet long.
Of course, that’s enough for me!
I especially liked the one where you could see the engineer twisting the heck out of the rubber band.
Great find H³, they are fantastic.
Finally got a chance to watch it. Probably too late to comment…. but…
Wonderful vehicles. Would have liked some description… especially the criteria for the entries…
Like the ages, and whether they’re all original, how much restoration is allowed, whether any are recreations or recombinations.
Love the yellow “horseless carriage” at the end.

Grace doesn’t scare me. She’s cute!
Like Wednesday Adams!
Now Vlad, he’s likely to make me soil myself.
