Jumping back into editing New York City photos from last year & reminded that the hotel I stayed at (The Beekman Tower/ originally called the Panhellenic Tower) has embellishments from legendary artist Rene Chambellan. He is probably best known for his work on the Chanin Building.

The bronze sculpture of Atlas being lowered into place in Rockefeller Center Plaza, 1937. I can’t tell whether it’s the whole sculpture (45 feet/14 meters) that they’re hauling or just the globe (30 feet/9.14 meters).

Victor Hugo on Talleyrand's death
For @empirearchives who was interested, here's a translation of Victor Hugo's text about Talleyrand's death. My thanks to @microcosme11 for her help <33
Choses Vues, Victor Hugo
1838
Talleyrand
19th of May
In the Rue St-Florentin, there is a palace and a sewer.
The palace, with its noble, rich, and dull architecture, was long called "Hôtel de l'Infuntado"; today, we read on its front door: Hôtel Talleyrand. During the fourty years he lived on this street, the last host of this palace might never have set eyes on this sewer.
He was a stranged, feared, and considerable character: his name was Charles-Maurice de Périgord; he was noble as Machiavel, a priest like Gondi, defrocked like Fouché, witty as Voltaire, and lame as the devil. One could say that everything limped with him: the nobility which he had put to the service of the republic, the priesthood he had dragged on the Champ-de-Mars then threw down the drain, the marriage he had broken by twenty scandals and by a voluntary separation, the wit he dishonoured through vileness. This man, nevertheless, had grandeur.
The splendours of both regimes were mixed together inside of him: he was prince of the old kingdom of France, and prince of the French Empire.
For thirty years, from the depth of his palace, from the depth of his mind, he had just about led Europe. He had let the revolution call him "tu", and had smiled at it, ironically of course; but it had not noticed. He had approached, known, observed, pierced, stirred, upturned, delved into, mocked, intellectually fertilized all the men of his era, all the ideas of his century, and there had been a few minutes in his life when, holding in his hand the four or five fearsome threads that moved the civilized universe, he had had for a puppet Napoleon the First, Emperor of the French, King of Italy, Protector of the Confederation of the Rhine, Mediator of the Swiss Confederation. Such was the game this man played.
After the Revolution of July, that old race, whose grand chambellan he was, having fallen, he found himself standing on one foot and told the people of 1830, sitting, bare-armed, on a pile of cobbles: Make me your ambassador.
He had received Mirabeau's last confession and Thiers' first confidence. He had said himself he was a great poet and had made a trilogy in three dynasties: Act I, Buonaparte's Empire; Act 2, The House of Bourbon; Act 3, The House of Orleans.
He had done all of this in his palace, and, in this palace, like a spider in its web, he had attracted into it and taken successively heroes, thinkers, great men, conquerors, kings, princes, emperors, Bonaparte, Sieyès, Mme de Staël, Chateaubriand, Benjamin Constant, Alexander of Russia, Wilhelm of Prussia, Francis of Austria, Louis XVIII, Louis-Philippe, all the golden, shiny flies who buzzed in the history of those last fourty years. The whole sparkling swarm, fascinated by this man's deep eye, had successively passed under the dark door that bore, written on its architrave: Hôtel Talleyrand.
Well, the day before yesterday, 17 March, 1838, that man died. Doctors came and embalmed the corpse. For this, like the Egyptians, they first withdrew the bowels from the belly and the brain from the skull. Once done, after they had transformed the prince de Talleyrand into a mummy, and nailed this mummy in a white satin-lined coffin, they withdrew, leaving upon a table the brain, that brain which thought so many things, inspired so many men, built so many edifices, led two revolutions, fooled twenty kings, contained the world.
Once the doctors were gone, a valet entered, he saw what they had left. Hold on! they forgot this. What to do ? He remembered that there was a sewer in the street, he went there, and threw that brain into this sewer.
Finis rerum.

Les Mis Letters - 1.3.1 - The Year 1817
It’s the chapter that feels like the literary equivalent of “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” so I thought the best summary would be through song…
Restoration, monarchy, and the French Academy  The third book of Les Miserables starts with context  From gibbet to the guillotine, headlines lay the scene  Of 1817 and all that will come next.
Mathurin Bruneau (Not a Louis? Gotta go!)  Berri for Sicily fell, Brugiere is a hot sell  Napoleon is turning green; Louis, Number Eighteen  Picard at the Odeon until the curtain fell.
It’s book three of the novel  We just met Valjean, and now we’re moving on  It’s book three of the novel  Until we meet Fantine, it’s 1817.
Abbé Louis: Finance; Talleyran: Chambellan  Pellegrini, Bigottini, Potier, applause  Lord Byron, Saint-Simon, David d'Angers rock on!  Selves to Egypt goes, Colonel to Pasha.
Madame Saqui goes on tour; Prussians from the last war  Cardinal Fesch won’t give up yet, (a Bonaparte, I’ll bet)  Felicite de La Minais, another Bossuet  Fabvier in Lyon, Civil Code is going strong.
It’s book three of the novel  We just met Valjean, and now we’re moving on  It’s book three of the novel  Until we meet Fantine, it’s 1817.
Divorce gets the sack, Catholic church is coming back  Hotel de Cluny, La Harpe and Thermes  Riverside Conspiracy, Black Pin goes free  Cafe Lembin has their champ, Valois in the Bourbon camp.
Elba to St. Helena, everyone is telling ya  The Meduse quite a mess, Gericault a success  Steamboat (useless thing), fossils and piety  French Academy theme: Happy when you study.
It’s book three of the novel  We just met Valjean, and now we’re moving on  It’s book three of the novel  Until we meet Fantine, it’s 1817.
Paer plays L’Agnese for the Duke of Orleans  Loyson getting old, envy grows bold  Charles Dauton lost his head, Ourika is being read  Blue ribbons, big hems, powdered wigs are out again  Austerlitz is being changed, government is rearranged  Getting over awful weather in our new morocco leather!
Tumblr media
No divorce, you’re stuck with me; traitors land on their feet  General Bourmont, Bonapartist? (or not?)  Pierre-Paul Royer-Collard wants baser to stay small  Gregoire wants in parliament, can’t the man just take a hint?
Two years from the Hundred Days, a few years from the new craze. Flotsam floats confusedly, pell-mell through history Parisians now take the stage, arranging a fine game. Where’s Valjean? Who’s Fantine? Someone say before I scream!
It’s book three of the novel We just met Valjean, and now we’re moving on It’s book three of the novel Back to Jean Valjean As Victor Hugo tangents on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on…
A big thanks to The Siècle Podcast’s research that made this random idea possible:

Flat Phryne in Buffalo!
Tumblr media
Flat Phryne's adventures on the way to Miss Fisher Con in St. Paul continue. This week, she paid a visit to Buffalo, New York!
She checked in at the Hotel Lafayette. During it's prime, the Lafayette was one of the 15 finest hotels in the United States, boasting not only elevators, and hot and cold running water and a telephone in every room. Flat Phryne enjoyed her time there before heading out to see the sites.
Tumblr media
Flat Phryne's first stop was Buffalo City Hall, one of the largest and tallest municipal buildings in the US. The Art Deco building, designed by Dietel, Wade and Jones, and featuring sculpture by Albert Steward, Rene Paul Chambellan and William Ehrich, was completed in 1931.
Tumblr media
Next she made her way to the Liberty Building, built in 1925 and topped with replicas of the Statue of Liberty.  She wanted to replicate Didier Pasquette's 2010 tightrope walk between the 2 rooftop statues, but it wasn't in the cards. Maybe next time!
Tumblr media
She then stopped by the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Lafayette Park.
Tumblr media
Phryne was keen to learn more about Josh Allen, the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, though she prefers footie to American football.
Tumblr media
She made a quick stop to admire the Buffalo Savings Bank, 
Tumblr media
and the Electric Tower building, 
Tumblr media
before taking in a picture and enjoying the Wurlitzer extravaganza at Shea's. The Mighty Wurlitzer organ at Shea's (and in the Capitol Theatre in Melbourne!) were made just north of Buffalo. 
Tumblr media
Today, the former Wurlitzer factory is home to a brewery, events, and an amazing chocolate factory.
Tumblr media
Where will Flat Phryne turn up next? Stay tuned!

How to roast your players
So I've got a recurring character in my campaigns, named The Chamberlain (Le Chambellan in french), who does a bit of fourth-wall breaking.
He was the final boss of a campaign, and the players had to survive for 30 seconds/5 turns against him. So they tried to buy some time by talking to him.
His answer ?
"Why should i answer to such flat characters ?"

Isaac de Ninive, Philocalie, Degrés de la prière
Parfois la prière engendre une certaine contemplation qui fait s'évanouir la prière sur les lèvres. Celui auquel échoit pareille contemplation entre en extase, et devient pareil à un corps que son âme a quitté. C'est ce que nous appelons vision dans la prière et non pas une image ou une forme fabriquée par l'imagination, comme le soutiennent les sots. Cette contemplation dans la prière a elle-même ses degrés et ses dons différents. Mais jusque-là, il s'agit d'une prière, car la pensée n'est pas encore passée à l'état où il n'y a plus prière mais état supérieur à la prière. Les mouvements de la langue et du coeur au cours de la prière sont des clés. Vient ensuite l'entrée dans la chambre. Là la bouche, les lèvres se taisent; le coeur, le chambellan des pensés, la raison qui règne sur les sens, l'esprit, cet oiseau rapide, avec tous leurs moyens et facultés et leurs supplications n'ont plus qu'à se tenir muets, car le Maître de la maison est entré. L'autorité des lois et des commandements édictés par Dieu pour l'humanité ont leur terme dans la pureté du coeur suivant la parole des saints Pères. De même, toutes les formes et attitudes de prière dans lesquelles l'homme s'adresse à Dieu ont leur terme dans la prière pure... Dès que l'esprit a franchi la frontière de la prière pure et s'est engagé au delà, il n'y a plus ni prière ni émotions, ni larmes, ni autorité, ni liberté, ni supplications, ni désir, ni impatiente espérance pour ce monde ou pour l'autre. Il n'y a donc pas de prière au-delà de la prière pure... En franchissant cette limite, on entre dans l'extase, on n'est plus dans les prières. C'est la vision: l'esprit ne prie plus...
