Henri Lanos 1888 – Les Travaux de la Tour Eiffel – La Grande Echelle
Henri Lanos (1859-1929) was a French illustrator and painter whose work appeared in French magazines like La Caricature, L’Illustration and Je Sais Tout. He was member of the Société des Artistes Français (French Artists Society).
3-point perspective (1 point + zenith + right) is awesome. He even detailed rivets, and showed Paris’ 1855 Palais de l’Industrie in the distance.

Saturday Matinee – Strandbeest, Elvin Bishop & The Wailers
Awesome mechanics.

He won me over years ago when he shouted out a recipe for carp. [Dedicated to Retired Geezer.]
The Wailers‘ “Stir It Up” (1967) is possibly the best Reggae groove ever. This might be the 2nd best. Here’s the 10th best.
Have a great weekend, folks. See you back here tomorrow for more aftershocks.
