Sky Scrapers of Philadelphia 1898 Frame Style:Bourbon Frame The Celestial Mechanics of Light

The Celestial Mechanics of Light and Shadow — Part B picks up where the first plate left its geometry hanging — a Victorian study of penumbra and umbra rendered with the patience of a draftsman who believed eclipses were arguments God made in shadow

and the slow blue haze that settles over the highlands at dusk

or on the wall of any kitchen where craft beer is treated with respect

rendered in the year he was wounded at Second Bull Run and reassigned to command the Middle Department

A meaningful gift for cigar collectors
