Art: Lyonel Charles Feininger
The White Man, painting by Lyonel Charles Feininger (1907)
Colección Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza en depósito en el Museo Thyssen-Bornemisza
"Lyonel Charles Feininger (July 17, 1871 – January 13, 1956) was a German-American painter and caricaturist."
"Feininger only started working as an artist at the age of 36, after having worked as a commercial caricaturist for twenty years for various newspapers and magazines in both the USA and Germany; he was a member of the Berliner Sezession in 1909, was associated with expressionist group Die Brücke, the Novembergruppe, Gruppe 1919, the Blaue Reiter circle and The Blue Four. Famously, he designed the cover for the Bauhaus 1919 manifesto: an expressionist woodcut 'cathedral'. He also taught at the Bauhaus for several years." - Wikipedia

Flickr: Those Swell Smoking Men
OK, so let me just be slightly politically correct and say that I do not encourage anyone to smoke ...but nor do think that we should hide the fact (see previous post) that many men used to smoked pipe in the old days. Smoking pipe was an important symbol of maturity, manliness, distinction, class, wealth, reliability etc.

A drawing of Jacques Tati as Hulot (with his pipe) made by...?
