Apropos your recent remarks on Regency men, the great outdoors, and military service, do you think the picture of Washington, D.C. burning is strictly necessary for this variety? Or only statistically probable? I'm worried it would clash with my collection of pastoral landscape paintings, but also wouldn't want to deprive the Regency man of necessary enrichment. Should I be looking at a different type of 19th century man more compatible with my art collection?

Hello! I am jumping ahead in the order of asks to respond to this question about managing expectations for Regency men.

The portrait with Washington, D.C. in flames is not strictly necessary for perhaps the great majority of men in this time period; but you must allow for the iconic nature of Sir George Cockburn's c. 1817 portrait in his rear-admiral's pattern 1812-25 undress coat with Hessian boots and spurs, and the burning Capitol buildings in Washington behind him. The ultimate statement in military might and Napoleonic-era civilian fashion, melded together in an expression of brilliant masculinity!

It's pronounced COH-burn, for your information.

Despite all this, some would baulk at the underlying violence of such a portrait. If your 19th century man has a penchant for this sort of display, he may be content with a comparable marine tableau—perhaps HMS Shannon capturing USS Chesapeake!

Surely, this majestic view of Halifax Harbour will compliment any pastoral landscape.

Imagine you join the navy and its your first day on the USS George Washington and theres a special visitor's plane there and he goes into an office with your admiral and a few hours later youre letting a blue deer borrow your DNA and clothes to fight knife serpent aliens controlled by slugs that are trying to stage a nuclear war in order to take over the world. I would quit my job

AMN Samuel Richmond takes a break on his wheel chock atop the flight deck of USS GEORGE WASHINGTON while underway in the Arabian Sea on March 8, 1998.

Record Group 330: Records of the Office of the Secretary of Defense

Series: Combined Military Service Digital Photographic Files

Image description: Two men, one close to the camera, lean on the waist-high end of wheel chocks that are shaped sort of like golf clubs with large heads. Each man is wearing camouflage trousers, a blue jacket with white shoulder reinforcements, a blue-and-white helmet, gloves, ear protection, and a large pair of goggles. In the background we can see other servicemembers and an aircraft on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier.

Broadway First: Theater Named for LENA HORNE! First NYC theater named for a Black woman honors legend By Miriam Kleiman, Public Affairs

Civil Rights activist, singer, actress, and dancer Lena Horne (1917–2010) broke racial barriers and achieved many “firsts” including being the first Black performer hired to sing with a major white band, play the Copacabana nightclub, and sign a Hollywood contract. This week she (posthumously) achieved another milestone when Broadway’s Atkinson Theatre was renamed The Lena Horne Theatre. She features prominently in our records: supporting the troops in World War II, meeting with presidents, and marching on Washington.
