Harper’s Christmas Number, 1893. Edward Penfield (American, 1866-1925). Cover art. Included is How Love Came. A Poem. Alice Archer Sewall.

“THE night was darker than ever before (So dark is sin),  When the Great Love came to the stable door And entered in, And laid Himself in the breath of kine And the warmth of hay,  And whispered to the Star to shine And to break, the Day. O flowers underneath the snow That chilled His feet,  As He passed by did ye not know His footsteps sweet?…”

A woman like that spreads happiness wherever she goes. You’re a lucky dog, Andrei!

Oedipus and Antigone, n.d. Franz Dietrich (German, 1838-1890). Crocker Art Museum.

Dietrich depicts the tragic aftermath of the story of Oedipus from Sophocles’ play. The king of Thebes, Oedipus was abandoned as a child because of a prophecy that he would kill his father and marry his mother, both of which subsequently happened. The tragic revelation drives him insane, and he blinds himself and wanders the world with his daughter Antigone.
