The image depicts a vintage poster featuring an illustration of a farmer ploughing with two oxen. Above the scene, text reads "Crédit Lyonnais Emprunt National 1920" in large bold letters. Below this main title is smaller cursive writing that says "Terre de France." The background has subtle cloud-like formations and appears to be a muted landscape setting. A notable feature of the poster is the inclusion of an ornate wooden cross with flowers at its base, positioned prominently in the foreground on the left side. This religious symbol suggests themes related to faith or sacrifice. The overall tone of the image evokes historical agricultural practices and social aspects during that time period in France.

A striking black and white low angle shot of the stone gable of a church. The rough hewn stone structure features a circular window opening with a weathered border.

Dominating the peak of the gable is a simple, large stone cross. A small, dark bird is perched on the top arm of the cross, silhouetted against a bright, cloudy, and dramatic sky.

Rasos Cemetery in Vilnius in the late evening of All Saint's Day. At the top right corner of the photo there's the main cemetery chapel and right next to it on the right there's a Waxing Gibbous Moon behind a tree. Cloudy sky at the top and lots of graves on the slope below the chapel. Every grave has at least one lit candle

“As the moon ascends
The wolves come out to see the end
They hide from view and wait
To watch the ghost inside you come awake
And when the shots go off
You'll hear them call
My heart is racing just to see it all
To watch it crawl out of you changing shape
To take out your breath and watch it come awake”

95-летняя скульпторка Джеки Феррара съездила в Швейцарию и закончила там свою жизнь при помощи эвтаназии. Благополучная, приземлённо-дорогая смерть.

Ступенчатая архитектурно-геометрическая скульптура из тополиной фанеры. Конструкция напоминает бруталистский макет с тремя короткими и одним длинным крылом, скульптура имеет чётную симметрию, а самая высокая часть — пологая вершина — сложена из 12 фанерных плит. // A stepped architectural geometric sculpture made of poplar plywood. The structure resembles a brutalist model with three short wings and one long one. The sculpture has an even symmetry, and its highest part — the gently sloping top — is composed of 12 plywood slabs. // Jackie Ferrara, “Cross Crete”, 1979–1981, poplar plywood, 66 × 38 × 8 cm // 1981 © Jackie Ferrara

“Last night I found you wet
I was dry but you pulled me in
And we drowned in silence
We drowned in silence.”

“I wish you could've viewed
It's all become dreary and bare
Who would've known it would turn into this?
Now walls surround and everything else seems cold and pale
It's strange and it jars my head”
