This illustration from ‘Living London’ a three-volume work written by George R Sims in 1902-1903, depicts a cocky linklighter, cigarette in mouth and hand resting in his pocket. The worried-looking woman leads her elderly husband by his scarf. He looks uncomfortable, as he is in danger of being either strangled by the scarf or suffocated by the fog. Behind are shadows of the chaos caused by the foggy condition Science Museum / Science & Society Picture Library

Rocks are alive and have “always been interpreted as the bone structure of the earth, combining with water, which in its many forms represents the lifeblood, to compose a picture as a living organism” In painting rocks, capturing their ‘ch’i’ spirit, matters most; “One should certainly never paint rocks without ch’i …. Rocks must be alive”. Rocks may be familiar: “Small rocks near water are like children gathered around with arms outstretched toward the mother rock. On a mountain it is the large rock, the elder, that seems to reach out and gather the children about him. There is kinship among rocks” ~ Page 145

‘GENES’ is the French name for Genoa, and by extension of traditional style of trousers worn by Genoese sailors. Serve de Nimes was the name of a tough blue sailcloth, now corrupted to ‘denim’, traditionally woven in the French town. Levi Strauss (1829-1902) was a native of Bavaria who emigrated to New York at the age of fourteen and who joined his brothers in their business of supplying the prospectors and frontiersmen of Californian Gold Rush. Some time in 1860 Levi’s company had the idea of matching the denim cloth with the Geneoese trousers, and of strengthening the pockets and seams with brass horse-harness rivets. Thus was produced the most durable and universal item in the history of fashion design – a German immigrant using French materials and Italian style to invent an archetypal American product.

‘Blue Jeans’ remained workaday clothing in North America for almost a century, before taking Europe (and the rest of the world) by storm in the 1960s, a prime symbol of ‘Americanization’

Fear and peril are palpable in Richard Ansdell’s en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Ansdell 1862 painting of an enslaved man and woman cornered by snaring dogs as they escape through North Carolina’s great Dismal Swamp. Despite the danger and uncertainty, thousands of African Americans fled the cruelty of slavery in a bid for freedom.
