    It was more than a minor mishap/

    when the master mislaid the map !/

    for when it reappeared /

    /// I’m not someone who finds fault and bashes

    Steve for paintings he picks; (I hate clashes).

    But three of the last four

    are of subjects that bore:

    stocky Dutchmen with wispy mustaches.

    Progressives are minimizing wood pulp waste. We now have fine hemp, linen, or rice toilet paper.

    /// Take this map which will show you a “Treasure

    that can bring you a lifetime of pleasure!”

    When unrolled, it’s a sketch—

    several sloops and a ketch.

    I sell “Sailboats, the best use of leisure.”

    I was in a porta potty once and all I had was a pocket spiral notebook. True story.

    Willem van de Velde II (1633-1707), Painter

    Paste (including the quote marks) 

    "Category:Scrolls in art" Wikimedia 

    (syntax supported by the Google, Bing, Yahoo, and Brave search engines) in the browser address bar (or search for it using one of those search engines) and choose the first Category: found, and once there find the text string Helst, and click its link for info and links that point to more info (perhaps best viewed by the Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browsers, which can automatically translate most webpages if necessary) about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting. 

    Again, a larger strip image is also shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #3374 (September 13, 2024) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu (even larger, if you trim what’s after .png from the URL). I have added a comment there pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, only work by him used here.

    Monday:

    She’s reluctant to exercise power./

    That’s no way to treat a flower..

    Does a petal feel pain ?/

    Should a woman abstain?/

    She’s been standing like this for an hour….
