Photo of the Day: This Little Piggy…
This small bronze sculpture squats outside the Brandywine River Museum, perhaps the
best regional art museum I’ve come across.As you can guess, this image was taken last fall, when I was on vacation
in eastern Pennsylvania—an especially idyllic time, considering that Hurricane
Sandy hit not long after I got home. Spending time at the museum—very much
including the adjacent Brandywine Creek—is one of the nicest pastimes I can
think of for an autumn day, I think, and I hope to get back there again
sometime.
Anyway, this sculpture is by Andre Harvey. Perhaps not surprisingly, given its rural setting,
the museum has a bit of a thing for pigs—Jamie Wyeth has a painting inside, and then there’s this…
I'm a librarian (no, NOT a "cybrarian" or "information scientist" or any of the other trendy terms the profession has come up with), as well as a freelance writer/researcher; my political leanings are contrarian, much to the dismay of friends on the left and right, and so I will give anyone looking for my vote exactly what they deserve -- the back of my hand
